Helping You Move Forward After Surgery

Surgery marks a significant moment in your health journey, but it is only one step. The weeks and months that follow are when rehabilitation makes the greatest difference, helping you rebuild the strength, mobility, and confidence that surgery alone cannot restore. Without appropriate guidance, everyday movements can feel daunting, and recovery may take longer than necessary.

Professionally guided rehabilitation at home means you receive the right level of support at each stage of recovery, with exercises calibrated to your procedure, your current ability, and the instructions from your treating clinician. You progress at your own pace, in a familiar environment, without the added strain of travel to a clinic.

What Makes Our Post-Surgery Rehab Different

  • Personalised Recovery Plan

    Sessions tailored to the patient's procedure, mobility, medical instructions, and recovery milestones, not a generic protocol.

  • One-to-One Physiotherapy at Home

    Individual guidance without the added burden of travelling to appointments. Clinical-quality care delivered in the comfort of your home.

  • Progress at Your Pace

    Exercises and activities adjusted according to comfort, functional ability, and clinical guidance, with no pressure to rush the recovery process.

  • Family-Inclusive Support

    Keep family members involved in relevant updates and guidance, with the patient's consent, so everyone supporting recovery stays informed.

  • Outcome-Driven Service

    Every session is anchored to measurable recovery milestones (range of motion, strength, pain levels, and functional ability), so progress is visible, documented, and clinically meaningful at every stage.

  • Live Session Tracking & OTP Verification

    Track your physiotherapist's arrival in real time and verify each session start with a one-time passcode, giving you full confidence that the right professional is at your door, on time, every visit.

Real-time | Safety-first

Track Your Physiotherapist, Every Step of the Way

We track the live location of every physiotherapist on duty and share it with you, just like tracking a ride. Watch your PT move towards you in real time, know exactly when to expect them, and verify each session starts safely with a one-time passcode.

Two Layers of Visibility & Trust

We track PT locations internally across our network and share that live position with you, so you always know where your physiotherapist is, not just when they're scheduled.

PT Location Tracking
  • Live PT Location on Your Screen

    From the moment your physiotherapist departs for your home, you can see their exact location on a live map, updated in real time, so you know precisely where they are and how far away they are.

  • Live ETA & Distance Updates

    The app continuously calculates and displays the estimated time of arrival and remaining distance, so you and your family can plan around the session without waiting anxiously.

  • Fleet-Level PT Oversight

    We monitor the location of all active physiotherapists in our network in real time, ensuring punctuality, safe routing, and timely intervention if a PT is significantly delayed so you're never left waiting without notice.

Session Tracking & OTP
  • OTP-Verified Session Start

    A unique one-time passcode is sent to you before every visit. The physiotherapist enters this code at your door to officially begin the session, confirming identity and creating a reliable, tamper-proof attendance record.

  • Session Start & End Notifications

    You and any authorised family members receive an automatic alert the moment a session begins and ends, giving full visibility of every visit even when you are not in the room.

What Your Post-Surgery Rehab Sessions May Include

Initial Recovery Assessment

A thorough assessment of current mobility, strength, pain levels, and post-operative restrictions to establish a safe starting point for rehabilitation.

Mobility & Movement Practice

Gentle, progressive exercises to restore range of motion in the affected area, reduce stiffness, and rebuild comfort with everyday movement.

Strength & Flexibility Exercises

Targeted work to rebuild muscular support around the surgical site, improve stability, and prepare the body for the demands of daily life.

Safe Everyday Movement & Fall Prevention

Guidance on moving safely around the home (transferring, sitting, standing, and walking), with attention to fall prevention during the early recovery period.

Progress Reviews & Plan Adjustments

Regular review of progress against recovery milestones, with exercises and session intensity adjusted as capacity improves and healing advances.

Home Exercise Plan Between Sessions

A simple set of safe exercises to practise between visits, with clear guidance on how often and how much, so recovery keeps moving on the days your physiotherapist is not there.

Your Recovery Journey, Step by Step

  1. Initial Assessment

    A qualified physiotherapist visits your home to understand your procedure, review any post-operative instructions from your surgeon, and assess your current mobility, strength, and comfort level. This forms the foundation of your rehabilitation plan.

  2. Personalised Rehabilitation Plan

    A rehabilitation programme is created around your specific procedure, recovery stage, and any restrictions from your treating clinician. The plan sets achievable milestones and guides the pace at which exercises are introduced.

  3. Guided Home Sessions

    Regular one-to-one physiotherapy sessions are conducted at home. Your physiotherapist guides you through exercises, monitors your technique, and ensures movements remain within safe parameters for your stage of recovery.

  4. Progress Tracking & Plan Adjustments

    Your progress is monitored at each session. Exercises are adapted as your strength, mobility, and comfort improve, ensuring the programme remains appropriately challenging without overloading the recovering area.

  5. Guidance for Everyday Independence

    As recovery advances, sessions focus on restoring confidence and independence in daily activities such as dressing, walking, using stairs, and other movements that matter most to you. Ongoing guidance is provided to support sustained recovery.

  6. Quality Audit

    Audit & Quality Review

    At regular intervals, an internal clinical audit reviews session records, progress data, and adherence to the rehabilitation plan. This ensures every visit meets the clinical standards set at the outset and that any deviation from the recovery pathway is identified and addressed promptly. Audit findings are used to maintain consistency and continuously improve the quality of care provided.

  7. CSAT Report

    CSAT & Feedback Report

    After each phase of rehabilitation, a short customer satisfaction survey is shared with the patient and, where consented, with family members. Responses feed into a structured CSAT report reviewed by the care team, covering satisfaction with punctuality, communication, session quality, and overall experience. Insights from these reports are used to address individual concerns and drive service improvements across the programme.
