Our Objective
The Paraplegic Rehabilitation Centre (PRC) serves the mission to support ex-servicemen who have sustained spinal cord injuries, causing Paraplegia or Quadriplegia during their service to the nation. These injuries often result in long-term conditions that require continuous care and rehabilitation.
Paraplegia refers to paralysis of both lower limbs, often accompanied by loss of bladder and bowel control.
Quadriplegia is a more severe condition, affecting all four limbs along with bladder and bowel function.
