Your donation for the area of services Medicine: Effective, focused, lasting
Donations to medicine make a key contribution to the care, treatment and rehabilitation of persons with a spinal cord injury. They enable progress to be made in research and therapy that would not be possible without additional resources.
Strengthening health and independence together
Following a spinal cord injury, medical care does not end with rehabilitation. Persons living with a spinal cord injury often need specialised therapies, treatments and check-ups for the rest of their lives. This support helps them to stay healthy, live as independently as possible and maintain their quality of life.
This is exactly what the Swiss Paraplegic Foundation stands for in the area of services Medicine. It provides access to medical services and future projects that go beyond the regular financing provided by health insurers or insurance companies. These include, amongst others:
Equine therapy
in which the movements of horses are used to improve balance or emotional well-being, amongst other things.
Highly specialised surgical services
which help to relieve pain, improve mobility and prevent consequential damage.
Innovative medical offerings
that open up new possibilities for people with spinal cord injuries and promote their independence and mobility.
