Services
My Therapy Assist believe in the importance of communicating with our clients, their carers and loved ones throughout therapy. We support informed decision making. Our Therapists put a lot of thought and consideration into the recommendations they make to ensure each clients’ own beliefs, values and needs are represented.

According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), “falls are the second leading cause of unintentional injury and deaths worldwide.”
Statistically almost a third of mature adults (aged 65 and above) will have at least one fall per year and 30% of these result in moderate to severe injuries such as hip fractures or head trauma. Injury from falls can negatively impact quality of life, independence and cause a fear of further falls.
We know that between 20–30% of all falls are preventable. Our therapists work with you and your family to help determine your falls risk factors and the recommended recovery strategies.
Risk factors of falls include:
- Limited mobility
- Impaired walking (gait)
- Impaired balance
- Visual impairment
- Reduced muscle strength
- Reduced reaction times
- Medications
- Fear of falling
How can we help?
- Identify and remove potential risk or hazards
- Equipment prescription
- Falls prevention education
Pressure care injuries can occur from a range of factors, including:
- Friction
- Shearing
- Poor nutrition
- Some medications
- Incontinence
- Extended exposure to moisture
- Altered level of consciousness
- Poor blood circulation
- Skin infections
- Other pre-existing health conditions
- Limited mobility
- Advanced age
The more risk factors you have, the higher the probability of a pressure injury re-occurring with the progression and severity also increasing.
