What physical therapy may include
Physical therapy at home helps patients improve safe movement in the environment where they actually live. It may be used after a fall, joint replacement, hospitalization, stroke, weakness, or a condition affecting walking and balance.
Ask agencies whether they have PT availability in the patient city, how soon an evaluation can happen, and whether therapy is coordinated with nursing or other ordered services.
Common physical therapy tasks
- Gait and transfer training
- Balance and fall-risk work
- Strength and mobility exercises
- Home safety recommendations
- Progress updates to the ordering provider
Questions to ask before choosing an agency
- How quickly can a PT evaluation happen?
- Will therapy happen in the home environment?
- How are goals and progress explained?
- Can PT coordinate with nursing or OT if needed?
