Does your elderly relative need rehabilitation following a long hospital admission?
Does someone you know need help in their home and you feel physiotherapy would help?
Have you or someone you know fallen and would benefit from a falls risk assessment and management plan?
Do you feel you or a family member would benefit from exercises to help with walking and completing day to day activities?
Are you waiting a number of weeks for NHS community services to see you at home?
If you have answered yes to any of these questions please get in touch!
