Evidence informing our approach
Home-based rehabilitation can be appropriate when assessment in the person's usual environment is practical and clinically suitable. Australian falls guidance and systematic-review evidence support tailored assessment and balance or functional exercise for older people, without guaranteeing fall prevention for an individual.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions about home physiotherapy
What home physiotherapy services do you provide in Brisbane?
Home physiotherapy may include mobility and gait assessment, treatment, strength and balance work, falls-risk review, transfer or stair practice, home exercise progression, and rehabilitation after illness, surgery, or hospital discharge.
Is home physiotherapy the same as mobile physiotherapy?
Yes. Home physiotherapy, mobile physiotherapy, in-home physio, and physio home visits are common names for care delivered by a physiotherapist where the person lives.
Can I arrange in-home physio after a hospital stay or fall?
Yes, when it is clinically appropriate. A home visit can review walking, transfers, stairs, confidence, falls risk, and the practical barriers affecting recovery after discharge or a fall.
What is home care physiotherapy, and can a provider refer?
Home care physiotherapy, sometimes called home care physio, is physiotherapy delivered as part of a person's support at home. Home care providers, care partners, GPs, specialists, hospital teams, family members, and clients can contact Clinics GRP intake. We can coordinate with the relevant care team when consent and the referral context allow.
Can home physiotherapy use aged-care, Medicare, private health, or NDIS funding?
Potentially. Home physiotherapy may be accessed through eligible Support at Home, CHSP, Medicare, private health, NDIS, or self-funded pathways. Intake confirms the funding and service fit before care begins.
Which Brisbane areas do your mobile physiotherapists cover?
Home visits are available across published Brisbane service areas. Coverage depends on the address, clinical need, travel efficiency, safety, and current clinician availability. Contact intake for an address-specific check.
How do I arrange a home physio visit?
Check likely home-visit coverage online, then contact intake with the address, main concern, mobility or access issues, and any referral or funding details. The team will confirm the most appropriate next step.
