Patients screaming ignored when Doctor 3metres away, patients taken to hospital for suspected brain bleed due multiple falls in 24-48hrs. Patients out of control, yelling and bullying other patients, staff and management, no action taken. Left after 24hrs, was dropped by physio and hoisted, staff member hurt in fall and physio insisted on continuing exercises. Physio were advised of previous issues attempting the same move. No care from staff. Released myself from their care for my own safety, no crutches, no wheelchair, made to load my heavy bags on me as they dumped me outside. Not allowed to hire any equipment for ankle broken in 3 places. Family had to rescue me. I would not leave anyone I care about there, or any enemy for that matter.

The nurses are fantastic and caring also my speech therapist was the best and last but not least Angi i can't thank you enough for what done for me ill be forever grateful.
This place is fantastic and has been so important in my rehabilitation. I had a overzealous personal trainer absolutely ruin my back causing muscular and nerve issues. The staff at royal Talbot plus the facilities have given me the help I've needed to get moving again and help minimise my pain. I'm now only using minimal pain killers and anti inflammatory tablets.
I was fitted with and trained for a prosthetic leg, above knee amputation at Royal Talbot Rehab Centre. I could not have received better care. Friendly, helpful and well trained staff. Great medical and support crew. In house physio is the best, as is the in house occupational therapy. They have it all in the one complex. Good place. Lucky if you get in there. Thank you Royal Talbot!
Many thanks to Royal Talbot Jason and Stephen who did a wildlife hazard review with me on their gardens and fences and who will be making `wildlife safe` a small barbed wire section protecting "plant machinery" near some flowering eucalyptus. Great community spirit guys. Well done.
I had my first visit there today i was shocked to see what condition the rehabilitation hospital is in. I was only a visitor and my opinion is the room's are very depressing the place doesn't look like it had any maintenance on it for years, i actually have gone home depressed thinking of the patients and stsff that have to be there. Austin hospital and the Labor Government need to spend lot's of money to fix this depressing place.
