The team at Godfrey Care’s Station House service in Rolleston has been doing some outstanding work in supporting the physical rehabilitation of one of the residents.

GF recently spent time in hospital with health issues. Due to her existing diagnosis, the stay had an impact on her mobility, causing her to be bed-bound.

Our colleagues at Station House worked in close partnership with external professionals, including an occupational therapist and a specialist physiotherapy team from Midlands Partnership NHS Foundation Trust, to develop a plan to help GF, mapping out a gradual process of recovery. The service team has been hands-on in offering support and training to ensure that GF has been able to reach a series of small milestones in improving her mobility.

GF has shown lots of determination in following the recovery plan. Her efforts have come to fruition, and she has been able to do transfers in and out of her vehicle through stand-to-sit and sit-to-stand exercises.

GF is delighted to be able to get out and about again, resuming access to the community after a frustrating period of inactivity. Her achievement has been supported by the skill and commitment of the service team. Collaborating with clinical professionals is a big part of Godfrey Care’s approach to care, and we are grateful for the expertise of the occupational therapist and the physiotherapy team in supporting GF’s recovery.
