Physiotherapy
Assessment and treatment for mobility, pain, post-operative recovery and reconditioning.
Funding overview
Allied Health Under Support at Home
Support at Home is the Australian Government's aged-care program helping older people live independently at home for longer. Our Blacktown team provides physiotherapy and exercise physiology that helps eligible participants stay mobile, confident and connected — in our accessible clinics or in their own home.
How we can help
We focus on the things that keep older people well and independent — moving safely, staying strong, and recovering after illness or hospital stays.
- Mobility and walking programs
- Strength and balance training
- Falls prevention
- Post-hospital and post-operative rehabilitation
- Cardiovascular conditioning within tolerance
- Home visits for participants who cannot easily attend the clinic
- Clinic-based rehabilitation in accessible private rooms
- Written progress reporting to the participant's provider
Services available under this pathway
We work with participants, families, care partners and Support at Home providers to deliver allied health services approved in the participant's care plan.
Exercise Physiology
Clinical exercise for strength, balance, chronic conditions and cardiovascular health.
Falls Prevention
Evidence-informed balance, strength and confidence programs for older adults.
Post-hospital rehabilitation
Structured recovery after illness, hospital admission or surgery.
Home visits
Selected services delivered in the participant's home where clinically appropriate.
Clinic-based rehabilitation
Delivered in our accessible private rooms and equipped rehab gym.
For older people, families and carers
We use plain language, take time to listen, and design programs around what matters to the participant — walking to the shops, getting up from a chair, playing with grandchildren, staying in their own home. Sessions can happen in our clinic or, where suitable, in the home.
For care partners and Support at Home providers
We work alongside your care partners with clear communication, written progress reports and responsive scheduling. Referrals are simple, and we confirm approved services and fees before commencing care.
