Paediatric physiotherapists at Manchester Neuro Physio can perform assessments and treatment at your child’s home. This arrangement is frequently used by parents who struggle to attend appointments in clinic, or those who are struggling to perform daily activities in their own home.
Children that struggle with a range of everyday activities will benefit from being assessed at home. Our physiotherapists can look at your child in their home environment to see what problems they are currently having and what ways physiotherapy is able to help.
Our physiotherapists may look at your child’s physical skills including:
- Positioning
- Head control
- Rolling
- Sitting
- Standing
- Walking
- Fine and gross motor control
Our physiotherapists can also assess functional skills such as those who need help manual handling, transferring, help with washing and dressing, getting up or down stairs, and those who are short on confidence when walking can all benefit from being assessed and treated in their own home.
By seeing you in your own home, your physiotherapist will be able to witness the problems that your child is experiencing with everyday activities. From this your physiotherapist can advise you on walking aids and / or home adaptations to enable you to regain or retain your independence and increase your quality of life.
Observing your child in their own home allows your physiotherapist to see the problems they experience on a daily basis. As a result your physiotherapist can offer you advice on home adaptations and / or mobility aids to allow your child to regain or maintain their independence and improve their quality of life.
