The MSc in Rehabilitation is suitable for all practitioners working in health and social care including nurses, doctors, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, social workers and speech and language therapists. Previous cohorts have included an interdisciplinary mix of practitioners working in both general and specialist areas of rehabilitation for providers such as community, intermediate care, acute, independent sector and local authorities, both in the UK and overseas.
