How we work with your care team
Agree the scope. We meet your facility manager or director of nursing to agree the services, visit days and reporting you need.
Regular scheduled visits. The same clinicians visit on set days, so residents and staff get to know them.
Documentation in your system. Assessments, care plan recommendations and progress notes are recorded in reports provided after each visit.
Clear communication. We flag changes in a resident’s mobility or falls risk to the registered nurse on shift, and report to families and GPs where appropriate.
Regular reporting. Monthly summaries of services delivered, falls follow-ups and outstanding recommendations, to support your clinical governance and quality reporting.
Staff training
We can run short practical sessions for care staff on safe transfers, falls prevention and helping residents with their exercise programs.
Disciplines available
Physiotherapy, occupational therapy, exercise physiology, podiatry, psychology and remedial massage. All clinicians are Ahpra-registered or accredited by their professional body, hold current police checks and NDIS worker screening / vaccinations required by your facility.
