Aged Care Physiotherapy
Need a physio to visit you or a loved one in a rest home?
The Rehab Team are a mobile physiotherapy service in Tauranga, Papamoa, Mount Maunganui and surrounding areas. If you call a rest home, care home or a residential village your home then we can come to you.
Getting access to high quality, regular and individualised help from a physiotherapist in a rest home is often hard to find. And getting to a physio clinic for residents of rest homes is almost impossible. We at The Rehab Team like to solve this problem by bringing your physio right to your room.
We have all bases covered, our Physio’s have experience in Older Adult Physiotherapy, Neurological Physiotherapy, Vestibular Physiotherapy and General Physiotherapy too. We are an ACC registered clinic and offer subsidised rates for ACC related physiotherapy treatment. We can assist you or your loved one with completing an ACC claim if eligible.
The Rehab Team will communicate directly with the reception and nursing staff before your initial appointment to ensure we can access your facility. Throughout your rehabilitation we will regularly touch base with nursing staff and key family members to maximise treatment goals and rehabilitation outcomes.
Reasons for booking Rest Home Physio.
Change in mobility.
Have you noticed your walking getting more difficult or finding it harder to get out of a chair? You may even be requiring more assistance from care home staff. The Rehab Team Physio’s provide individualised therapy to work towards your mobility goals.
Balance and Falls.
The best form of treatment is prevention. If you are feeling less confident or unsteady on your feet then this is the best time to contact The Rehab Team for a balance assessment. Before any falls occur. Our physio’s can determine possible reason’s for this change and complete tailored balance rehabilitation.
Keeping Mobile.
Our goal at The Rehab Team is to keep older people mobile, safe and happy for as long as possible. We believe that fun is an essential part of every treatment plan – we want you to look forward to your physio appointment and maintain motivation to keep doing the exercises and activities designed to help you.

It is common to experience a decline in function following a significant medical event such as an extended hospital stay or surgery. Our physios are able to provide the rehabilitation needed to improve your function.
Pain.
Our Physiotherapists use their hands-on clinical skills and an in-depth knowledge of how the body works to accurately assess, diagnose and effectively treat your symptoms. This includes getting to the root cause of your pain.
Increasing strength.
With all your needs seen to when living in a rest home, it can be very easy to decrease the amount of activity you do. This can lead to a generalised loss of strength, fitness and mobility. The Rehab Team can help increase your strength in order to maintain your mobility for as long as possible.
