Adult Community Physiotherapy
What We Do
We are a team of state registered physiotherapists providing physiotherapy to the local adult population that are registered with a Liverpool GP. We treat people within their home environment, and where appropriate, other community settings providing a service to people who are housebound, or who are best treated at home.
We assess and then provide advice, education and treatment for people with a range of physical problems. These may be caused by accidents, ageing, disease or disability.
We aim to promote independence and improve quality of life.
Depending upon the persons needs they will be directed on to one of the following specialist pathways; Neurological Rehabilitation, Care Homes, Falls Prevention or Specialist Community.
Within these pathways we treat patients with respiratory conditions, orthopaedic and musculoskeletal conditions, neurological conditions plus palliative care patients and patients with mobility problems.

- An individualised home exercise programme

- Advice regarding suitable equipment
- Provision of appropriate mobility aids
