At Georges Estate, we prioritise a holistic approach to resident well-being, incorporating various allied health services to enhance the quality of life for our seniors. Allied health professionals, including physiotherapists, speech pathologists and dietitians play a crucial role in ensuring our residents receive comprehensive care tailored to their unique needs.
Physiotherapy
Physiotherapy is essential in maintaining and improving mobility among seniors. At Georges Estate, our physiotherapists work closely with residents to develop personalised exercise programs that enhance strength, balance, and flexibility. These programs help prevent falls, reduce pain, and improve overall physical function. For example, resident Mrs. Johnson, who struggled with mobility after a hip replacement, now enjoys her daily walks in our beautiful gardens thanks to the dedicated support of our physiotherapy team.
Speech Pathology
Speech pathologists provide vital support for residents with communication and swallowing difficulties. These professionals conduct assessments and develop individualised treatment plans to enhance speech, language, and swallowing functions. Mrs. Davis, who experienced a stroke, received speech therapy that significantly improved her ability to communicate with her family and participate in social activities.
Nutrition and Dietetics
Nutrition plays a critical role in maintaining the health and well-being of our residents. Our dietitians at Georges Estate create personalised meal plans that cater to specific dietary needs and preferences, ensuring balanced nutrition. Regular dietary assessments and adjustments help manage chronic conditions and promote overall health.
At Georges Estate, we believe that comprehensive care is the key to ageing with dignity and joy. By addressing physical, emotional, and social needs, our allied health professionals play a vital role in enhancing the quality of life for our residents. Whether it’s through improving mobility, communication, or nutrition, the dedicated efforts of our allied health team ensure that our residents lead fulfilling and vibrant lives.
