Because of you, patients are getting the support they need for a stronger, safer recovery! For many patients, rehabilitation is a long and challenging journey and access to the right equipment can make all the difference.
Thanks to your generosity, Wellington Hospitals Foundation has funded a Leg Press machine for Therapies Outpatients, giving patients the equipment they need to regain strength, rebuild mobility and return to everyday life with confidence.
With rehabilitation needs becoming more complex and recovery times increasing, having this equipment ensures that hospital physiotherapy teams can provide the best possible care. The leg press machine allows patients to safely strengthen their lower limbs, recover from surgery and injury and reduce the risk of re-injury – particularly for those recovering from ACL (knee ligament) surgery.
Your support is also helping patients long after they leave the hospital. By using this machine during their hospital rehabilitation, patients gain confidence and familiarity with equipment they can continue using in community gyms after discharge.
Thank you for making a life changing difference!
