Falls prevention programmes

Healthcomestoyou is able to provide an experienced physiotherapist to come to you at home and provide a programme specifically individualized to address your needs and help to prevent you from falling. They will conduct a thorough assessment of the hazards in your home that could cause falls, take your medical history, assess your strength, walking and balance. A full report will then be written up. Any hazards found in the home will be addressed by an occupational therapist. There are other factors that can lead to falls such as poor vision, hearing and medication side effects. If any problems are identified they will be addressed. You will be provided with small weights and an exercise programme will be devised specifically for you to do every day that will help to improve your strength and balance.
