When Mrs Hlongwa arrived at Life Hilton Private Hospital’s acute rehabilitation unit following a serious health event, walking independently seemed out of reach. Nearly three months later, she walked out of the unit with renewed confidence and independence.

Her recovery journey reflects the strength and determination of patients and the role that acute rehabilitation can play in helping people to regain function, mobility and quality of life after injury or illness.

Colder weather can be tough on little lungs. During winter, children are often more vulnerable to respiratory infections such as colds, flu and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). With more time spent indoors and their developing immune systems, these illnesses can spread more easily. The good news is that small, simple steps can make a big difference in protecting your child’s health this winter.

Swipe for four simple ways to support your child's respiratory health this winter and read more about navigating winter illness here: https://www.lifehealthcare.co.za/news-and-info-hub/latest-news/protecting-young-lungs-this-winter/?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=link&utm_campaign=childrensrespiratoryhealth_july26
