Following a successful trial, a number of our hospitals have invested in a range of robotic and computer-assisted therapy devices.
The highly anticipated, evidenced-based robotic-assisted therapy supplements conventional rehabilitation therapy by increasing the number of repetitions during rehab, for positive patient gains.
Robotic assisted therapy is available at the following hospitals. Click through for more information for each hospital including the referral pathway to be admitted

Robotic-assisted therapy utilises computer-assisted therapy devices, software and applications to provide patients with intensive rehabilitation that engages them physically and cognitively.
Robotic rehabilitation successfully blends principles of rehabilitation with robotics, virtual reality and gamification, engaging patients with the three components of robotic assisted therapy – intensity, dose and motivation.
Whether stroke, spinal cord injury, Parkinsons or Multiple Sclerosis; our sensory robotic rehabilitation devices can be applied with a variety of symptoms to improve and enhance recovery.
Robotic assisted therapy focuses on the following:
Robotic-assisted rehabilitation helps therapists and patients to do the right things at the right time, regardless of location, indication and phase of rehabilitation.
Patients using robotic-assisted therapy have seen improvement in patient functional deficit resulting from stroke, traumatic brain injury, MS, Parkinsons and, musculoskeletal and spinal conditions.
There are numerous benefits to utilising robotic-assisted therapy in your road to rehabilitation:
Ask your general practitioner or specialist to refer you to one our hospitals near you that offers our Robotic Assisted Therapy Program.
The new robotics will be available to inpatients, day patients and outpatients, with those who are uninsured able to access a package of sessions, tailored to their individual needs.
Robotic-assisted rehabilitation is also available to patients under the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) and other funding schemes.
