Rehab Plus Outpatient service is dedicated to helping people achieve things that are important to them following a health setback. Our team of health professionals consists of occupational therapists, physiotherapists, speech and language therapists, clinical psychologist, dietitian and a social worker.

To access Rehab Plus you require a referral from your GP or other health professional.  The service we provide is a short-term and non urgent service, so if you need help quickly please let your GP know.

Rehabilitation aims to maximise the benefits of recovery, as well as assisting you to compensate for any persisting difficulties.  We work closely with you and your whanau/family to find out what you can already do and what you potentially could do.  We then help you to set goals and work towards these within a limited time frame.

From time to time we also offer groups.  This can include upper limb group, high level balance group, fitness group, hydrotherapy, communication group, memory group and stroke education group.


Mission Statement/Values

“Optimising Potential through Participation and Partnership”

Waiting Times
Sometimes there may be a waiting period before you are offered an appointment. Waiting times depend on a number of things; how urgent your need is, how many people are on the waiting list, and whether you are funded by Ministry of Health or ACC. If you have any questions, phone us on (09) 815 5628.

New Zealand citizens and residents do not pay for services - providing that you meet the set criteria.  If you were not born in New Zealand and have not previously shown evidence of residency you should bring your passport with you on your first visit to the outpatient clinic and show this to the receptionist.

Non-residents may be required to pay for their healthcare.

Tea and coffee are available in the waiting area.

If you are at Rehab Plus over a meal break, bring something to eat (there is a fridge and microwave in the waiting area).

Rehab Plus is situated approx. 1 km from the Mt. Albert train station and also near Pt Chevalier shops, which is a stop for many buses. For more information contact MAXX on (09) 366 6400 or www.maxx.co.nz
