"The practical help of the Physio"

About: Bromley Healthcare / Physiotherapy for adults

(as a carer),

I am my Mothers carer. In the past month her mobility & understanding of safety had majorly deteriorated & she had had quite a few falls. She has Parkinsons & also age related dementia.   I knew I needed help as I could not manage anymore & with a back complaint myself it was only a matter of time before I did myself an injury. Samantha came in & accessed the problem & made practical suggestions & ordered us equipment that has made it possible for us to get on an even footing again & means that I can manage now for quite a while without further intervention. My Mother is safe & I am confident doing the daily tasks. The pieces of equipment have made a major different & I would like to to say thank you to her for her help & sunny attitude.
