We provide physical health services across much of Hampshire – both in the community and in our inpatient services. We have a number of care pathways, based on different conditions (such as physiotherapy or respiratory) which we use to provide very tailored treatment for our service users.
Our teams are made up nurses, therapists, practitioners, assistants and support workers who work together to provide care and treatment in your home and local community. The teams are led by a community matron.
We carry out an assessment of your rehabilitation and care needs and then develop an individual treatment plan. We will regularly review this plan for your individual needs. Sometimes we will need to make a referral or consult with another specialist service, such as social services or a community mental health team.
Some of the things we typically help with include:
- supporting you to return home after a hospital admission
- helping you live as well as possible if you have a long term illness
- helping you with your walking or balance
- providing you with equipment that makes your daily activities easier
- provide care and treatments for pressure wounds
- support you in using a catheter
- to reduce the risk of you falling at home.
