We referred couple of our residents to EHCH for advised and guidance with moving and handling. After they were seen and assessed by Katie (Highly Specialist Physiotherapist) and Sammy (Third Year Physiotherapy Student), the staff are more confident on assisting them with moving and handling because of the guidance given to us. The residents are more compliant with care as they know that they were assessed by Physio and will need to follow the guidelines given by them.
This guidance given by the EHCH team have positive impact on the activities of daily living of the residents as they are more confident with their transfers. The suggested exercises also give the residents the motivation to do it.
"Positive impact to the residents and staff"
