Welcome to Our Physiotherapy Services for "My Aged Care" Participants!
At Get Set Physiotherapy, we take pride in offering specialized physiotherapy services for seniors participating in the "My Aged Care" program. Our team of dedicated and experienced physiotherapists is committed to enhancing the overall well-being and mobility of older adults, enabling them to maintain their independence and lead fulfilling lives.
What is "My Aged Care"?
"My Aged Care" is an Australian government program that provides support and assistance to older individuals to help them live independently and comfortably in their own homes for as long as possible. The program offers a range of services, including physiotherapy, to seniors over the age of 65.
Our "My Aged Care" Physiotherapy Services:
Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment: We begin by conducting a thorough geriatric assessment to understand the unique needs and challenges faced by each individual. Our compassionate and patient-centered approach ensures that we consider all aspects of physical health, enabling us to design personalized treatment plans.
Mobility Enhancement: Our primary focus is to enhance mobility and functional abilities. Through a combination of exercises, therapeutic techniques, and mobility aids when necessary, we aim to improve balance, strength, and flexibility, allowing seniors to maintain their independence in daily activities.
Pain Management: Chronic pain can significantly impact the quality of life for seniors. Our experienced physiotherapists employ various pain management techniques, including manual therapy and gentle exercises, to alleviate discomfort and improve overall well-being.
Falls Prevention: Falls are a common concern among seniors, leading to potential injuries and a loss of confidence. Our specialized falls prevention programs focus on improving balance and stability, reducing the risk of falls and promoting a safer living environment.
Home Exercise Programs: To ensure consistent progress and maintenance of physical health, we provide personalized home exercise programs that are easy to follow. These programs are designed to accommodate individual abilities and can be performed in the comfort of their own homes.
Aids and Equipment Prescription: When appropriate, our physiotherapists assist in selecting and obtaining the right mobility aids or equipment, such as walking sticks or grab bars, to enhance safety and independence in daily living.
