Rijndam Rehabilitation will take its renewed Westersingel location into use in 2020. The site includes 120 clinical beds, the outpatients’ clinics, day-patient treatment and sports & games. The office-bound organisation has already moved to the renovated Maasdam building.

Innovative and hospitable

The existing Westersingel location will be completely renovated and altered, with two newly-built floors and a new entrance area. The rehabilitation centre will have a floor area of 23,000 m2. The primary aim of the development is to create an optimal recovery process for patients. For this purpose the building will be process-oriented in combination with hospitality, technological innovations and a healing environment. Family is an important link in the recovery process, as well as personal control for the patient.
