What Does an Aged Care Physiotherapist Do?

An aged care physiotherapist assesses how an older person moves and functions in everyday life. This can include walking, balance, strength, transfers, pain, falls risk and the ability to complete activities safely around the home.

Because our service is mobile, the physiotherapist can assess the client in the environment where everyday movement occurs. Treatment and exercise can then be adapted to the person's home, abilities and functional goals.

Assessment

02

Treatment Plan

The physiotherapist develops an individualised rehabilitation plan based on the client's needs and goals.

Aged Care Physiotherapy FAQs

What is aged care physiotherapy?

Aged care physiotherapy focuses on the physical and functional needs of older adults. Treatment may address mobility, balance, strength, falls risk, pain, rehabilitation and the ability to complete everyday activities safely.

Can Support at Home pay for physiotherapy?

Physiotherapy is a Clinical Support under the Support at Home program. It can be funded where physiotherapy is included in the person's assessed needs and support plan and sufficient funding is available.

Is there a participant contribution for physiotherapy under Support at Home?

Physiotherapy is classified as a Clinical Support under Support at Home. Clinical Supports do not attract a participant contribution, provided the person is approved for the service and has available Support at Home funding.

Do I need a GP referral for aged care physiotherapy?

A GP referral is not generally required for private physiotherapy. For Support at Home clients, the service should be arranged in accordance with the client's support plan and registered provider's referral process.
