Reablement after stroke
15th January 2022 | 5 minsFor Patricia, improving her mobility has provided a huge boost in confidence that has enabled her to get out and about and enjoy the company of friends. Having experienced a stroke many years ago, Patricia was no stranger to physiotherapy. It wasn’t until she moved into Bankstown Terrace Care Community with access to the integrated wellness centre that she really saw improvement in both body and mind.
The support and encouragement from the whole Care Community gave her the extra confidence to walk that little bit taller.
Watch Patricia as she shares her story.
