What we offer
AgeHappy provides mobile Physiotherapy in Melbourne's northern suburbs. Our service is tailored toward older adults who require support in improving their functional capacity. We specialise in supporting Home Care Package clients; however, we are available to assist any older community members who reach out.
Our
Approach
The goal for most seniors we meet is to stay living independently in their own home. At AgeHappy we support clients to extend that aspiration to not only include the ability to do the things they need to do but also the things they love to do! After all, what is life without meaning and enjoyment?
We want our clients to THRIVE, not just survive!
How we do it
Our management plans are:
individualised
designed with purpose
appropriately challenging
evidence-based
proactive
regularly reviewed
Best of all, we can provide ongoing support to ensure our clients continue to thrive!
Our Services
Optimise Mobility
We assess your walking and develop a plan to get you moving more efficiently around your home and in the community. If a gait aid is necessary to keep you safe and active, we can help with that too!
Improve Balance
Good balance is vital to keeping active. Often your confidence has a strong influence on your balance capacity, so we really focus on making sure you feel safe and secure on your feet!
Maximise Functional Capacity
Your ability to function within your surrounding environment is key to remaining independent. We tailor progressive exercise programs to ensure you can do just that, and more!
Combat Frailty
Frailty is your ability to cope with / bounce back from adversity. The less frail you are, the longer you can stay independent. Our proactive management plans are renowned for boosting resilience.
Condition-Specific Intervention
Normal age-related changes can be associated with certain conditions (e.g. osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, Parkinson's Disease). We use expert knowledge and experience to develop individualised plans to help you best manage your condition so you can get on with living!
Self-Management Planning
AgeHappy is here to help, but it feels even better when you can help yourself. Our management plans ensure you can do just that. We provide realistic home exercise programs and support you to get back to your favourite physical activities.
Caregiver Education & Support
No one can do it all on their own. Often your carers (both formal and family) are your secret ingredient to remaining independent at home. We are happy to liaise with your support network to ensure we are all following the same positive path toward your future goals.
Home Care Package
Provider Advice
Your HCP Provider is your biggest ally. To ensure you're receiving the most appropriate care, we provide regular feedback to your Case Manager. This way they are always up-to-date with your current status and can coordinate your services accordingly.
Support Worker Collaboration
Support workers often come to your home more frequently than us. We can provide the necessary support so they feel comfortable supervising your home exercise program. Consistency with exercise is key, so this can be very beneficial to your progress!
