Hospital CUF Tejo in Lisbon includes virtual reality among the specialized resources in its neurorehabilitation programme. The unit serves patients with neurovascular, neurological or neurosurgical conditions that limit cognition, communication or movement.
Virtual reality sits alongside digital and robotic resources within the hospital’s intensive, multimodal rehabilitation approach. The overall programme provides multidisciplinary intervention seven days a week and envisages more than four hours of effective therapy daily in individual sessions or activities. These figures describe the combined programme, rather than the frequency or duration of virtual reality sessions.
