Initial Neurological Assessment
Specialist neurological physiotherapy in the comfort of your own home
Your initial assessment (60-90 minutes) is an opportunity to understand how your neurological condition is affecting your movement, mobility, balance and everyday activities.
I will discuss your medical history, current difficulties and personal goals before completing an assessment tailored to your needs.
What I may assess
- Walking and mobility
- Balance and falls risk
- Muscle strength and movement
- Muscle tone and stiffness
- Coordination and posture
- Transfers and functional mobility
- Exercise tolerance and fatigue
- Use of mobility aids
Your rehabilitation plan
Following the assessment, I will explain my findings and work with you to develop a personalised rehabilitation plan. This may include exercises, walking and balance rehabilitation, functional practice, mobility advice and strategies to improve independence.
Because the assessment takes place in your own home, I can also consider practical challenges such as stairs, transfers, mobility around the house and potential falls risks.
