Physical Therapy is an amazing resource for people of all ages to help maintain strength and independence. It helped me tremendously after an injury years ago, and at Assisting Hands Broomfield, we see how valuable it is every day.
However, many of our clients struggle to keep up with their prescribed home exercise plans. Up to 70% of physical therapy patients are estimated to be “nonadherent” to their home programs! This can cause slower and incomplete recovery, a higher risk of falls, and increased re-hospitalizations.
Home care can help! Daily support from an Assisting Hands caregiver can result in much better outcomes because of how we encourage our clients and participate with them in their home exercises.
Check out the ChoosePT program set up by the American Physical Therapy Association for information on how PT can prevent injuries and promote overall wellness.
