Amana helps patient regain strength

Amana Healthcare successfully rehabilitated a patient named Claudio, who suffered a life-threatening accident a year ago which resulted in severe injuries.

Amana provided Claudio with support from a multidisciplinary team, gradually enabling him to regain his strength.

Claudio’s wife said, “A year ago, my husband had a serious car accident, which forced him to stay four months in the hospital.

“He suffered from hemiplegia and a collapsed lung, and had to have a tracheostomy. His body was full of edema and was heavily dependent on a ventilator and oxygen.

“After a long period of hospitalisation, he developed bedsores but the medical team gradually managed to control the edema, then he was weaned off the ventilator, and recently, his oxygen supply was stopped. The wound is now under control, and we hope it will fully heal in the coming months.”

Dr Jason Gray, CEO of Amana Healthcare, added, “Stories like Claudio’s remind us of the core of our mission. Healing is much deeper than medical practice, at its heart lies kindness, trust, empathy, and human connections which give patients the strength to persevere and continue.”

Recently, Amana Healthcare received a three-year accreditation from the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) for its Comprehensive Inpatient Rehabilitation Spinal Cord Specialty Programme and long-term care services at Amana Healthcare Village.

The Spinal Cord Specialty Programme at Amana Healthcare addresses the complex and evolving needs of patients with complete or incomplete spinal cord injuries.

It includes advanced physiotherapy and occupational therapy, neuropsychological support, and specialised clinical interventions such as swallowing re-education and tissue viability nursing.

The programme also emphasises community reintegration, independence training, and peer support, ensuring holistic care that promotes both physical recovery and emotional well-being.

The three-year accreditation for long-term care further affirms Amana Healthcare’s dedication to providing safe, compassionate, and high-quality care to individuals with complex medical needs over extended periods. It reflects the organisation’s strength in clinical outcomes, patient satisfaction, and continuity of care. The long-term care programme remains central to Amana’s mission to transform lives with dignity, purpose, and respect.
