Depending on the individual, services may include physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech and communication support, nursing and medical care, psychological counselling, special education, assistive technology, self-care training, vocational rehabilitation and supported living.

These services are designed not only to improve functional ability, but also to strengthen independence and support participation in family and community life.

Residential Support

Campus Residential Rehabilitation

Children participating in campus residential rehabilitation

Residential arrangements for children with disabilities have been available at Amar Seva Sangam since 1989, enabling children to stay, study and participate in rehabilitation within a supportive campus environment.

This integrated support helps children complete their schooling while receiving rehabilitation services, while relieving families of the daily challenges of travel and caregiving.

Support is planned according to individual needs and may include physiotherapy, assistive devices, self-care training, recreation and opportunities to strengthen independence in everyday activities.

The residential environment complements educational, rehabilitation and developmental services available elsewhere on the campus.
