Functional assessment
The assessment evaluates motor skills, muscle strength, range of movement, posture, cognition and executive functioning. The individual’s environment, equipment and medical needs are taken into consideration to recommend the best rehabilitation interventions.
Upon completion of an assessment, Claudia creates a report with these interventions to guide the client towards their goals. These interventions may include therapy sessions, self- guided activities, strategies for managing pain and fatigue and equipment recommendations. She also monitors progress and makes adjustments until the desired outcome is achieved.
Specialist equipment
Claudia is committed to providing her clients with the most suitable solutions to meet their needs. She keeps up to date with advancements in assistive technologies and adaptive equipment to guarantee the safety, comfort and abilities of the individual. She offers a variety of options, from basic to higher quality equipment, with potential for customised solutions. In addition, she recommends the best-suited equipment for the individual’s needs during activities such as bathing, toileting, dressing, bed transfers, and seating requirement.
Home adaptations
Home adaptation companies may not always have a comprehensive understanding of the client's specific needs. This can result in a costly experience for individuals when trying to find the correct adaptions. Claudia can assess needs, set goals and find the products that fulfil these needs now and in the future. She will also complete schematics of the environment to better assist the clients in their decisions.
