THE state-of-the-art Army Recovery Centre, a dedicated 12 bed wing of the £8.6 million Erskine Edinburgh Home, is the result of a partnership between the Army, veterans’ charity Erskine, and Help for Heroes (H4H) who together are providing accommodation and support for soldiers wounded or injured during Service. This is the first purpose-built Army Recovery Centre launched in the UK. Continuous evaluation of this pathfinder scheme will show the way to deliver similar services wherever the need is identified, with planning already underway towards a second pathfinder facility in Colchester. Before the centre opened, once patients left hospital or the Defence Medical Rehabilitation Centre at Headley Court, most continued to convalesce at home. However, some families simply cannot provide the required level of support and care needed to allow patients to return to duty or make a smooth transition to civilian life. |
