Therapy Services Team
Promoting independence
and enhancing quality of life
During the
past year, Theresa Hopwood, Occupational therapist, has joined us – a most
welcome addition to the Therapy Services Team. This provides our patients
with access to further specialist help to promote independence and enhance
their quality of life. Increasing numbers of patients are now being
admitted for symptom control and rehabilitation and the discharge rate has
risen above 30%.
As a team, we felt that it
was important to provide support for the carers and therefore, together with
other members of the multi-disciplinary team, we have started a Carers
Support Group. As from September, this group will be meeting on the second
Thursday of every month; it will offer carers the opportunity to meet others
in the same position and to access different areas of support and advice.
As individuals, our roles
have continued to grow and develop over the last year:
OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY SERVICES
PHYSIOTHERAPY SERVICES
COMPLIMENTARY
THERAPIES
