Falls can significantly impact the quality of life of the elderly population. They can lead to decreased mobility, a fear of falling, and social isolation. These impacts can be detrimental to the overall well-being of the elderly population and can lead to a decline in physical and mental health.

From providing fall prevention education to conducting home reviews and supporting recovery after a fall, physiotherapists can help individuals maintain and improve their quality of life. If you or a loved one is at risk of falls, consider seeking the services of a physiotherapist to help prevent falls and maintain a high quality of life.

Early Supported Discharge (ESD) is where patients are provided supported in-home rehabilitation treatment compared to the conventional hospital-based rehabilitation model of service delivery.

Clinical guidelines recommend that ESD services should provide timely and intensive rehabilitation, with treatment at the home starting within 24 hours of hospital discharge, to support stroke survivor recovery. This can be an extremely daunting time for stroke survivors and their loved ones, but with the help of early-supported discharge services, it doesn't have to be.

In the acute stages, physiotherapists in the hospital will review your loved as soon as they are medically stable to maintain lung hygiene and early mobilization. Once they are medically stable, then intensive rehabilitation will be important to maximize their recovery.

Intensity and frequency are both importance, but can it only be done in a hospital setting? Is there an option to receive intensive therapy while being in the comfort of your own home with your loved ones?

Why exercise after a stroke? Where and how do you start?

'In Singapore, the number of stroke episodes increased from 5,890 episodes in 2010 to 8,849 episodes in 2019. To mitigate the impact of stroke, preventive measures that reduce cerebrovascular risk, as well as post-stroke interventions that improve prognosis and reduce recurrence risk, are essential.'
