Our Mission
Our Story
As clinicians working within the hospital setting, we recognise the difficulties patients and carers face when trying to access continued specialist Physiotherapy and rehabilitation when discharging home. Patients recovering from a period of illness or suffering with a long term condition, often discharge home without access to on-going rehabilitation at risk of deterioration. With this in mind, LRS was set-up to provide patients, families and care teams with the specialist Physiotherapy they require to promote recovery and improve quality of life.
We pledge to provide the following for our service users:
- Comprehensive rehabilitation programmes to facilitate recovery
- Reduced risk of admission to acute facilities
- Early, supported discharge from acute facilitates to home
- Improved quality of life, by enabling individuals to access their clinical care within the home environment
How do we achieve this?
- Provision of highly specialised Respiratory and Rehabilitation Physiotherapy in the London community
- Joint working with NHS and private multidisciplinary teams enabling the delivery of "collaborative care"
- Early recognition of deterioration/exacerbation via provision of home diagnostics and specialist care.
- Provision of specialist equipment which is financially and practically accessible, with clinical support.
- Training of families and care teams to provide safe, confident and competent care for those living with long term conditions
