Assessment and rehabilitation period

A short-term assessment and rehabilitation period promotes your functional capacity following hospital treatment, for example. We assess what kind of support and follow-up care you will need. Our aim is for you to be discharged safely with the right support.

We carry out assessment and rehabilitation periods in Helsinki's senior centres. You can access our services with a referral from home care, city hospitals and urgent care and emergency services. Our clients come to us following a service needs assessment, for example after hospitalisation or from home when additional support is required to manage at home.  

We work with you and your sources to plan the assessment and rehabilitation period according to your needs. We will support your rehabilitation as part of your daily activities, such as dressing, eating and moving around. During the period, we will ensure that you will be receiving the right treatment, medication and rehabilitation for you.

Contact details for carers

If you have any questions about your or your relative's assessment and rehabilitation period, you can contact the nurses directly by phone. You can also contact us in the evenings and at weekends. Please note that the contact detail pages are only in Finnish.
