Is your parent having falls or do you fear they are at risk of having a fall?

Are you worried that they will lose their independence?

Around one in three people aged 65 and over experience at least one fall per year; this rises to about half of those aged 80 and over.

The best way to help those at risk of falling is to support them BEFORE they fall!
Here at Reclaim Mobility, we want to PREVENT FALLS, rather than waiting for them to occur.

So within our FALLS ASSESSMENT PACKAGE, we provide:
- An Initial Occupational Therapy Assessment to identify where the falls risks are within the person's day to day activities, advice on lifestyle tweaks and/or aids/equipment to help as part of the home assessment.
- An Initial Physiotherapist Assessment where they will have their balance, strength, movement and mobility reviewed.
- A brief report/letter for their GP / consultant, to ensure fluid communication between health care professionals.
- Treatment plan and recommendations, including home exercise programme (if deemed appropriate) of personalised recommendations to reduce the person's risk of falls.

What are the benefits of having independent therapy?

Being experienced therapists who have / do still work in the statutory sector we know how both sides work. Sometimes people get discharged before they want to be or maybe theyโ€™re not seen as regularly as theyโ€™d like to be.

NHS services can be brilliant at times and we know that between our team weโ€™ve helped thousands (if not, tens of thousands) of people over our nhs time! But of course there are sometimes limitations.

Independent therapy allows for:

๐Ÿ’™ More control over appointments such as how regularly you want input, for how many sessions/weeks/months and what day/time works better.

๐Ÿ’™ More control over whether you want your exercises / rehab to be delegated to a Rehab Assistant or whether youโ€™d like to keep to the therapist themselves.

๐Ÿ’™ At Reclaim Mobility, we have a unique team of different professionals (called a multi-disciplinary team) which means we can meet your therapy needs from a more holistic perspective.

๐Ÿ’™ No need to travel to nhs clinics or worry about hospital parking, as we come to you, in your own home.

๐Ÿ’™ More effective communication as our whole team of professionals share the same systems and actually talk to one another!

New Blog Alert โ—๏ธ๏ธ

Have you ever wondered what an Occupational Therapist actually does?
Aren't they the same as a Physiotherapist?

Well in our new blog, we think you will understand just a little bit more about what they do and how they are a great addition to someone's rehab experience.

Summer holidays are looming and with most of our staff trying to balance work and parenting responsibilities around the school holidays, we will try to minimise any disruption.

We believe in work / life balance so time with loved ones during the holidays is important (and as our Occupational Therapists call it โ€˜Occupational Balanceโ€™) but we want to meet our clientsโ€™ needs too!

Luckily, we have a great team around us, including our Senior Rehabilitation Assistants who may support you during this time if we are unable to visit ourselves. Just like in our photo, our Rehab Assistants can support you with your exercises and mobility practise.

Donโ€™t forget to tell us about your holidays too so we can work around you.

If you have any queries about your therapy sessions over the next few weeks please do get in touch so we can have a chat about your sessions.

We believe allied health professionals are essential for optimising quality of life, independence, admission prevention and discharge transitions from hospital or respite back home.

We know how beneficial we are, but itโ€™s just sad that it has to be discussed in parliament for them to debate its worth when we already know!

๐ŸŒž Dehydration & Sunstroke in Older Adults: Know the Risks ๐ŸŒž
Important information for families, carers & older individuals

Older adults are more vulnerable to heat-related illness, even in the UKโ€™s 'milder' summer temperatures. As we age, our bodies find it harder to regulate temperature and sense thirst โ€” meaning dehydration and sunstroke can set in quickly.

๐Ÿšจ Risks to watch out for:

Dizziness or confusion

Dry mouth or reduced urination

Rapid heartbeat

Weakness or fainting

Headache or flushed skin

๐Ÿ‘ต๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘ด๐Ÿป Why older people are at greater risk:

Some medications (e.g., diuretics, blood pressure meds) increase fluid loss

Reduced sense of thirst

Chronic conditions like diabetes or kidney issues

Limited mobility can make it harder to seek shade or fluids

Check in on elderly neighbours, friends, and relatives

โ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ Stay Safe in the Sun While Staying Active ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธโ˜€๏ธ

As the warmer weather encourages some of us to get outdoors and keep active, for some of you it might be putting you off leaving the house.

But it's important to remember that sun safety is health safety!

Here are some evidence-based tips to help you enjoy your fitness routine safely in the sun:

โœ… Plan your workouts wisely โ€“ Aim for early mornings or evenings when the sunโ€™s rays are less intense. For us our favourite time to potter in the garden is 7-8am or 7-8pm!
โœ… Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate โ€“ Dehydration can creep in quickly. Bring water with you if you go out, even if you can only carry a small one and sip regularly, even if you donโ€™t feel thirsty.
โœ… Wear suitable clothing โ€“ Choose breathable, loose-fitting clothes and a wide-brimmed hat to protect your skin and stay cool.
โœ… Use SPF 30+ sunscreen โ€“ Apply generously to all exposed skin 15-30 minutes before going in the sun (see your bottle's instructions), and reapply if sweating or out for long periods.
โœ… Wear sunglasses as this is vital for maintaining eye health.
โœ… Find shade - choose the pavement that's more in the shade or if you have to walk the dog, what about trying the woods which is mostly shaded.
โœ… Listen to your body โ€“ If you feel dizzy, nauseous, or overly fatigued, stop and rest in the shade.

๐ŸŒž Regular exercise is vital for both physical and mental health โ€” just make sure you protect your skin, stay hydrated, and find the best time of day for you.
