Their expertise, compassion, and commitment make a real difference in the lives of those they care for. Whether it's helping someone regain their strength, recover from joint surgery, manage pain, or build resilience, our physios are skilled and caring professionals who empower each individual on their journey to recovery. 🌈

This week is Speech Pathology Week (25-31 August). It celebrates the diverse ways that people communicate and the important work of speech pathologists.

It also gives us an opportunity to recognise our own speech pathologists, Emma and Amanda, and the important ways they work with patients at Arcadia Pittwater.

Emma and Amanda describe their role as incredibly rewarding, especially when the intensive work that both patient and therapist put in pays off.

They say it’s easy to take for granted the value of being able to perform simple tasks such as communicating clearly or even swallowing food safely.

But for people with varying health needs, these simple tasks can be a great source of frustration, not just for them but also for their families and friends.

At Arcadia Pittwater, our speech pathologists work with a wide range of individuals, including people with Parkinson’s Disease and those with speaking disorders such as aphasia.

“It's always rewarding to see people being able to swallow food and drinks they enjoy safely. And seeing people have improved conversations with family members and friends is also incredibly satisfying,” they say.

This week, during Speech Pathology Week, we celebrate the fact that everyone communicates differently. Whether spoken, signed, digital, or written, communication bridges gaps, fosters meaning and understanding, and strengthens bonds and relationships.

In Australia, an estimated 1.2 million Australians have communication support needs.

Thank you, Emma and Amanda, for your dedication and your important work at Arcadia Pittwater. We celebrate you and all speech pathologists today and every day.

A short stay in a "sub-acute" rehabilitation hospital like Arcadia Pittwater at Warriewood can be a helpful "bridge" between an acute care hospital and home.

This is particularly the case for people recovering from a surgical procedure, older people, or those with more complex care needs.

It provides an opportunity to fully recover and regain strength, mobility, and independence with the support of an experienced multidisciplinary care team before going home.

If you or a loved one has recently had a surgical procedure, our team can develop a program tailored to their needs to help regain strength and mobility before going home.

For older people or those with more complex care needs, we can focus on strengthening mobility and independence to support and enable a safe transition home.

When you or a loved one is nearing discharge from an acute care hospital, we can also organise the transfer directly with the hospital on your behalf.

To learn more or to have a confidential discussion about your or a loved one's needs, please contact our care team on tel: 8919.3100 or email: info@arcadiapittwater.com.au
