TPS enhances NHS rehabilitation outcomes by filling post-discharge support gaps and offering structured recovery for trauma survivors. Key integration points include:
- Working alongside NHS physiotherapy and mental health services.
- Supporting PTSD and chronic pain management to reduce relapse rates.
- Providing structured, evidence-based recovery steps tailored to NHS patients.
