West Wimmera Health Service - Commonwealth Home Support Program
Life Care Active
This exercise class is led by a Personal Trainer and the aim is to improve the person’s balance
and therefore reducing the risk of falls. While the class is taken from a standing position, for
those people who are unable to stand for long periods the exercises can also be performed
seated. People who have been attending these classes have commented that they have more
confidence and independence because of their improved balance. *This class requires an
assessment by our Personal Trainer prior to commencement as well as a medical clearance
from the GP*.
Occupational Therapy - Brookvale
The primary goal of occupational therapy is to enable people to participate fully in the activities of their everyday life. It does this by using specific activities to enable people to do things that will enhance their ability to participate or by modifying the physical environment to better support participation. Community occupational therapists help their clients and their carers cope with demands, adapt to tasks, and overcome challenges in their everyday lives. They do this by using a person's usual daily activities and tasks in a therapeutic way. Review activities of daily living which are required to stay at home independently and safely, for example: falls prevention assessment and intervention, review of home modifications e.g. grab rails, ramps; assessing equipment needs in the home e.g. shower chairs, wheelchairs, toilet aids, transfer aids. Specialist services include pressure area management. Interpreters are available if required.
