Allied health professionals are increasingly recognised for their pivotal role in enhancing the quality of life for the elderly. At Georges Estate, the integration of allied health services ensures we offer a comprehensive approach to healthcare addressing the physical, emotional, and social needs of our residents. 

Specialised exercise programs, fall prevention initiatives, and nutritional guidance are all designed to preclude the onset of health issues, promoting a proactive approach to maintaining our residents’ health, ensuring our residents can lead active, fulfilling lives.

Rehabilitative Care

Following serious injury or illness, residents have access to a range of rehabilitative therapies. These services are integral to helping individuals regain function and strength, facilitating a return to as much independence as possible.

Enhanced Independence

With a focus on enhancing residents’ independence, occupational therapists, for example, can make personalised adjustments to minimise hazards, thereby reducing the risk of falls and promoting a safer, more independent living environment. 

Whilst comprehensive mental health support addresses the psychological wellbeing of residents, especially vital for those adjusting to life in an aged care setting, providing a space for residents to express their feelings and work through any challenges.
