In this section
We are a small physiotherapy team working across the Central Manchester area and are based at Alexandra Park Health Centre, 2 Whitswood Close, Moss Side, Manchester, M16 7AP.
We provide a flexible service where we treat patients in their own home. We visit patients who are unable to travel to hospital or a centre for treatment or if it is more appropriate that they are seen in their home environment.
We see anyone who has a Central Manchester GP and work closely alongside GPs, District Nurses, home care services, as well as the hospital based therapists and other rehabilitation teams.
Admission:
Home Physiotherapy is suitable for patients with musculo-skeletal, orthopaedic, general mobility or balance problems and for those recovering from surgery.
Home Physiotherapy is appropriate for adults registered with a Central Manchester GP, who:
- have complex and/or multiple health and social care needs that require home based physiotherapy;
- would have significant difficulty leaving their home environment for treatment;
- have a health condition(s) that might be exacerbated by the physical exertion of clinic attendance;
- require assessment in their home environment to maximise function and independence with activities of daily living;
- have carers that require advice and education to optimise management of a patient’s condition(s);
- have a cancer diagnosis that is impacting on their normal function and activities of daily living.
