Referral Process
Booking – Please use our referrals or contact pages to get in touch.
Prior to seeing the patient, we would appreciate as much of their medical history as possible. This may be available through associated doctors, family, nursing homes, the NDIS or support coordinators involved. This feedback and information will streamline our healthcare process.
Initial Assessment – A caring, empathetic Physiotherapist or Occupational Therapist from Total Health Choice will see the patient at their residence to conduct an initial assessment. (I deleted the time as we only do 30min initial consults for private home visits vs 60min for NDIS).
This assessment will involve discussing the medical history, doing a functional assessment and taking outcome measures to gather as much information as possible and gain a real understanding of the patient, their concerns, their weaknesses, limitations and their goals. We like to take a holistic approach to our dementia patient’s care and set meaningful goals for them to achieve!
Our lovely team will work with the patient to allow them to live their best and fullest life despite the limitations of the disease!
