Following a serious injury, initial medical care will be provided by the hospital. Once discharged from the hospital, however, the injured person will very often have an ongoing need for treatment or therapy to assist them in making the fullest recovery possible. This work is often done by occupational therapists, speech and language therapists, physiotherapists and neuropsychologists, etc. This part of a person’s treatment is often referred to as the rehabilitation process.

Following the start of a claim for compensation following a serious injury, your solicitor will often arrange for an immediate needs assessment. This assessment will be performed under the rehabilitation protocol that most specialist solicitors and major insurance companies have agreed to. The protocol provides that the assessment of the immediate needs is intended only to provide assistance in the injured person’s rehabilitation and not to produce evidence that might be used in any subsequent court proceedings. Therefore, unless both parties agree otherwise, the content of the assessment of the immediate needs cannot be used in court.
