Working with a SensesWA Therapy Team
Our physiotherapy services are part of a collaborative, transdisciplinary approach. At SensesWA, we work closely with your entire therapy team to ensure consistent and complementary care. This team-based approach helps us meet the full scope of our clients’ goals, which often require input from multiple therapy disciplines.
For example, when selecting an appropriate wheelchair:
- A physiotherapist will address the client’s body and posture to ensure they are positioned comfortably and functionally.
- An Occupational Therapist will help the client access their environment with greater ease.
- A Speech Pathologist will ensure the individual is able to safely swallow, eat, and communicate when seated.
Working in your environment
To help our clients achieve their goals effectively, our physiotherapy services are provided within the context of the client’s everyday life. We deliver therapy in settings that are meaningful to our clients, which may include homes, day care centres, schools, parks, and swimming pools. This flexible approach ensures our clients receive the best possible support to achieve their physical goals.
