Introduction

The Centre for In-patient Daytime Programme (CIDP) was established in August 2009. Apart from rendering a comprehensive range of daytime rehabilitation programmes to the general adult in-patients, it also provides mental health education, social and emotional support to carers.

Vision

We strive to empower our service users to perceive themselves as an enabler.

Mission

Our rehabilitation services are collaborative, person-directed and individualised. By developing the culture of empowerment and optimism, service users join our programme based on their needs; their rights to choose the programmes they like are respected. Service users are encouraged to participate in decision about the service they receive. Their capacity is of primary concern to our programme design. CIDP is a platform of co-ordination between wards, helping professionals and voluntary agencies. Rehabilitation programmes are delivered through partnership.

Introduction

Rehabilitation wards provide a step-wise therapeutic environment to facilitate integration into the community. Initial training is being carried out by medium stay wards, in which the clients will be empowered with some freedom within the hospital setting.

All clients receive a multi-disciplinary assessment to determine their strengths and areas for improvement. An individualised care plan is drawn up, with active input from the client. Coordinated rehabilitation activities are arranged for the clients. The care plan is regularly reviewed. The care plan is handed over to carers of the discharge destination to ensure continuity of care.
