About this service

Assessment in the place where daily life happens

Home physiotherapy looks at movement in context, including transfers, stairs, routines, fatigue, equipment and the support available around the person.

Clinical approach

See the real barriers at home. Make the first plan practical. Build confidence in familiar surroundings.

Plan and access

Home-based care with a clear pathway forward

Reviewing progress

Progress should be visible at home

Common concerns

When home becomes harder to navigate

Home visits are often considered when travel is difficult or when the main mobility and safety concerns occur inside the home.

  • Difficulty attending clinic because of mobility, fatigue, transport, or frailty
  • Falls risk, transfer difficulty, stairs, and confidence at home
  • Recovery needs after hospital discharge or a change in health status
