Cumberlege Intermediate Care Centre

Cumberlege Intermediate Care Centre (CICC) provides inpatient rehabilitation and discharge planning for adults who require rehabilitation after a period of illness, immobility, stroke or a fall.
It has 14 stroke rehabilitation beds and eight intermediate care beds.
CICC is managed by a matron and staffed by members of the multi-disciplinary team (MDT). The team includes nurses, rehabilitation assistants, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, speech and language therapists, therapy assistants, a discharge co-ordinator, housekeepers and GPs.

Patients are cared for 24 hours a day and are encouraged to be as independent as possible, with the support of therapy and rehabilitation assistants. The unit has daily cover from GPs and a pharmacist visits daily to review medication.
Patient care is led by a team of nursing staff, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, health and social care workers and a social worker.

Visiting times

Visiting times are 3pm to 5pm, and 6pm to 8pm.

Visitors are encouraged to help us provide dignity and privacy by using the individual bedrooms or the grounds for visits.

We understand the importance of being able to spend precious time with loved ones towards the end of their lives. However it is important for our staff to balance the need to manage possible risks of infection with the safety of our patients, staff and visitors.

• Before visiting, please contact the centre on 01702 372066 to make arrangements with our staff
• Where social distancing can be maintained and prior agreements are in place, we can allow up to two family members or people of importance to our patient to visit. Visiting times may be staggered to accommodate visiting for all patients receiving end of life care
