Eldercare
Community Therapists has provided seniors with therapy services at home and within residential care/assisted living facilities for over 2 decades. Our occupational therapy and physiotherapy services enable seniors to maintain their dignity and independence in home, community and residential care settings.
Home Based Physiotherapy
Our Physiotherapists are skilled in assisting seniors with a range of issues including reduced mobility/balance, stroke, cardiac issues, fractures, chronic pain, dizziness and recovery after surgery. Physiotherapists provide exercises to improve or maintain strength, balance, and physical function so seniors can avoid falls and move more freely in their homes and communities. Aids to assist mobility such as walkers and canes can also be fitted to facilitate safe mobility.
Home Based Occupational Therapy
OTs assist seniors with a range of issues including any medical conditions that reduce their ability to complete daily activities including self-care, home management or accessing the community safely and reliably. Home medical equipment prescription, adaptive aides, disease management education and cognitive rehabilitation are just a few of the ways OTs can help. As skilled health system navigators and community builders, OTs facilitate seniors’ access to healthcare resources and develop community linkages to maintain social engagement. This promotes overall health and well-being.
Rehabilitation Staffing Solutions
Our services for facilities range from single consultation assessments to fully outsourced rehabilitation departments including OT, PT and rehabilitation assistant services. We are also able to source and manage other personnel including Speech & Language Pathologists, Dieticians and Counselors as needed. Our first step is to understand the needs of the facility, preferences, budget and resident profile. With this information gathered, a tailored proposal is developed. Our team works closely with leadership, nurses and care staff to ensure our systems and processes integrate closely with those of the client facilities we serve.
