Falls Prevention at home in Lutterworth
Lutterworth and the south-Leicestershire villages of Broughton Astley, Cosby and Ullesthorpe sit just off the M1, with patients often treated at Leicester Royal Infirmary, UHCW Coventry or Rugby St Cross. Jay covers home-based rehab across LE17, including post-op, neuro and falls work.
In Lutterworth, patients are most often discharged from Leicester Royal Infirmary, University Hospital Coventry & Warwickshire, St Cross Hospital, Rugby. Local community services include Blaby & Lutterworth Community Therapy, South Leicestershire Home First, and Jay is happy to coordinate where helpful.
About this service
One in three adults over 65 falls each year, and the consequences — fractured hips, head injuries, loss of confidence — can change everything. The good news is that falls are largely preventable, and home is the best place to do that work.
Jay carries out the same comprehensive falls assessment used in NHS community teams, including FRAT (Falls Risk Assessment Tool), Berg Balance Scale and Tinetti, then builds a tailored strength-and-balance programme around your home and your goals.

Lutterworth FAQs
I’ve only had one fall — is that enough to need physio?
Yes. Evidence is clear that any fall in the last year significantly increases the risk of another — and that’s the best moment to intervene.
Will you help me stop using my walking frame?
Sometimes that’s realistic, sometimes the safer goal is to use it more confidently. Jay is honest about what’s achievable and works to your priorities.
My elderly parent refuses to do exercises — can you help?
This is very common. Jay’s approach is to embed exercises into everyday tasks (kettle, kitchen, stairs) rather than ask people to do ‘sets and reps’.
Do you travel to Lutterworth and surrounding villages?
Yes — Jay covers all of Lutterworth including Broughton Astley, Cosby, Gilmorton, and the surrounding LE17 postcodes. Travel fees only apply for the most outlying villages and are confirmed on your free phone call.
My relative has just been discharged in Lutterworth. Can you start straight away?
Hospital-to-home transitions are core to Jay’s NHS background. Where capacity allows, a same-week visit in Lutterworth is usually possible. Get in touch directly to confirm.
