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.
