Physiotherapy(Community)

The Community Physiotherapy service aims to empower and educate clients (as well as the wider population and other disciplines)to reach their maximum physical movement potential, supporting them to achieve their individual goals and live as independently as possible in society. Following assessment and diagnosis the physiotherapist plans a course of treatment to suit the patient’s needs. Treatment will include any of some of the following: Exercise, Mobilisation of joints, Electrotherapy, Education and Advice for patients and their relatives on their condition. Aids and devices are provided where required to assist in the reduction of impairment. In general patients are seen as in-patients and in out-patient clinics but in some cases home visits can be arranged.
