Physiotherapy Visits for Care Homes

Physiotherapy Visits for Care Homes

At Shirley physiotherapy we understand that care homes are busy places and staff do not always have the time or physiotherapy expertise to help their resident’s mobility and recovery.

The NHS can give physiotherapy within care homes but there is usually a long waiting time and a limited number of treatment sessions. This is where Shirley physiotherapy can give that specialist physiotherapy service in a timely manner that is convenient for you, to help your loved one stay health in body and mind.

Shirley Physiotherapy are specialised in treating seniors in their care home, where we provide personalised physiotherapy specific for your loved ones needs. This is to enable them to stay as independent as possible following an injury, fall, operation, or have a long-term condition.

Having physiotherapy within the care home saves the need for going to a clinic to have an assessment or treatment, so this is less traumatic, more comfortable and convenient for your loved one.
