About the role:

Rehabilitation in the Armed Forces is delivered in three types of treatment centres:

  • Primary Care Rehabilitation Facilities (PCRFs): Patients may be referred to see a physiotherapist at a PCRF, usually based at Defence Primary Healthcare medical facilities. A physiotherapist will complete a detailed assessment within 10 working days of the first consultation and provide treatment and rehabilitation as required. Many PCRFs have an Exercise Rehabilitation Instructor who can also provide injury-specific exercise therapy and advice on gradual return to fitness.
  • Regional Rehabilitation Units (RRUs): If a condition cannot be managed at PCRF level, the patient is referred to an RRU unit in the UK. The RRUs provide specialist assessment and opinion through a Multi-disciplinary Injury Assessment Clinic staffed by specialist doctors, physiotherapists, and ERIs. These clinics have access to a wide range of medical imaging to make an accurate diagnosis and work out a treatment plan, while also providing additional treatment options, such as pain management.
  • Stanford Hall - The Defence Medical Rehabilitation Centre (DMRC): The role of the DMRC is to provide consultant-led rehabilitation services and support military patients with serious musculoskeletal injuries, neurological injuries, and complex trauma. Their aim is to maximise functional capability and quality of life of its patients, whether they are returning to military service or transitioning to civilian life.
