Residents in nursing homes often have higher care needs and more complex conditions. Visiting physiotherapy helps them stay as comfortable, mobile and independent as possible — and supports the staff who care for them.

Tailored to higher care needs

Nursing home residents may be living with the effects of a stroke, neurological conditions, advanced frailty, or recovery after serious illness or surgery. Physiotherapy is adapted to each person, whatever their level of mobility — from keeping a walking resident active, to comfort, positioning and gentle movement for those who spend more time in a bed or chair.

How Jill helps in nursing homes

  • Assessment of mobility, posture, comfort and safe movement
  • Gentle exercises to maintain movement and reduce stiffness
  • Help maintaining the ability to stand, transfer and walk where possible
  • Advice on seating, positioning and pressure care to keep residents comfortable
  • Safe moving and handling guidance for nursing and care staff
  • Rehabilitation after a fall, fracture, operation or hospital stay
