Physiotherapy plays an important role in our lives as we age because as we get older, the likelihood of health problems increases. Aged care physiotherapy helps with overall mobility, through a combination of massage, exercise and other techniques to prevent future injuries.
Physiotherapy for the elderly means that, for those who have access to our day therapy centres, they would receive:
- Comprehensive assessment
- Care planning
- Therapeutic interventions to residents of Regis as well as physiotherapy for elderly patients and members of the community
For access to elderly care physiotherapy through our day therapy centres, you will need to obtain a referral. This can be obtained from your general practitioner, hospital staff, health agencies or aged care assessment teams.
