The New Zealand Spinal Trust provides a range of resources for people recovering from a serious injury or illness. Check out our latest publication ""Back on Track" handbook - a basic introduction for those learning to live with a spinal cord injury.

As rehabilitation is not a medical process but one of learning it is essential that all recovering persons arm themselves with as much information as they can. This will empower you to take control of your rehabilitation and help you to work more productively with the vast array of health professionals, funders and support networks that are available to you.

Patient education material is a key focus of the New Zealand Spinal Trust, and we have produced a range of printed materials for patients. Some are available free online to download and others to purchase. You can view this material on our "Publications" page.
