Our general physical rehabilitation considers not only the individual health needs of clients but also works with communities to advocate for inclusivity and assists in house adaptation so that clients can continue to function as members of their community as easily as possible.

One client who benefitted from these services is Durga Maya, who says “’I feel like I have been given a second chance at life”.

Durga fell from a tree while gathering fodder for her family’s livestock, and broke her back. As a result, she was paralysed from the waist down. After her injury, Durga developed pressure sores which became infected so that both her legs had to be amputated. INF supported Durga through all of her treatment, designing a prosthetic stump to support her and allow movement in her wheel chair, assisting with house adaptations and providing income generating support.
