  • How has Total Health helped the community through aged care Physiotherapy?

    One lovely lady we worked with was in her eighties and non-ambulant following a femur fracture. Prior to her fracture she was very fit and had stayed active, but, after a fall, her dementia progressed and her mobility was negatively affected.

    We developed a plan to get her actively walking again. We first used a gutter frame and then moved to a four-wheel walker. As the sessions continued, the patient progressed. After nearly a year, she was happily doing laps of her garden and walking down the street with a carer or friend.

    We prescribed exercises for her to continue with her carers and family, so that she was empowered with her own physical therapy. Her progression was very impressive and her family was very appreciative of our support – how great!

  • How are goals determined?

    All of our treatment plans are individualised based on what our patients report to us during the initial consultation and our observations. We will listen to the patient’s medical history and consider this with a holistic mindset.

    Our treatments are focused around short-term and long-term goals to ensure that every session has a purpose.

    If a patient wants to work on their walking endurance, for example, then we will first assess their endurance by using an outcome measure such as a timed six-minute walk test to get a baseline measure.
