About kids Rehab
kids Rehab started the New Year with a new name: KIDS REHAB
kids Rehab is one of the largest paediatric rehabilitation units in Australia, caring for over 2300 children and young people in NSW who have a range of disabilities including Acquired Brain Injury, Cerebral Palsy, Spinal Cord Injury and Disease, Spina Bifida and Limb Deficiency.
