💙 World Mental Health Day 💙

💙 For many older adults, living with physical health conditions such as chronic pain, heart disease, arthritis, diabetes, reduced mobility, or long-term illness can have a significant impact on mental wellbeing. As physical health challenges increase, so can the risk of depression, anxiety, loneliness, and social isolation.

💙The World Health Organization notes that many older people experience both physical and mental health conditions at the same time, with approximately 15% of adults aged 70 and over living with a mental disorder.

💙Also, as well as ensuring our older generation can access their food, have help to get washed and dressed and take their medications, let's prioritise ensuring they are engaging in hobbies / interests and fun. Can they access a day centre or club? Can they get to see friends and loved ones? Do they need modifications to continue with engaging in their favourite hobbies such as arts and crafts or baking?

💙Participating in these meaningful activiites is part of what Occupational Therapists believe support a person's optimum well-being.

💚 Supporting Mental Health and Wellbeing at Home

Sometimes, a change in health, mobility or independence can have a big impact on how someone feels.

For older people especially, losing confidence, becoming less independent, spending more time at home or feeling disconnected from others can lead to low mood, anxiety, frustration and social isolation.

An Occupational Therapist can provide valuable support in the comfort and familiarity of a person’s own home.

We can work alongside individuals and their families to:

🌿 Understand what may be affecting their mood, confidence and wellbeing
🌿 Rebuild confidence with everyday activities
🌿 Find meaningful routines and things to look forward to
🌿 Encourage greater independence and participation at home
🌿 Explore ways to reconnect with family, friends and the community
🌿 Develop strategies to manage anxiety and feelings of overwhelm
🌿 Adapt activities or the home environment to make everyday life feel more manageable
🌿 Identify goals that are meaningful to the individual — not simply what others think they should be doing

Occupational therapy is about more than physical function. It is about helping people continue to do the things that give their life purpose, identity and enjoyment.

Sometimes, small changes can make a significant difference to someone's confidence and quality of life. 💚

If you know an older person who is struggling with independence, isolation, low mood or anxiety, occupational therapy could be part of the support they need.

🌀 Dizziness, Vertigo or Feeling Unsteady? Vestibular Physiotherapy Can Help

Dizziness and vertigo can be frightening — especially when they start affecting confidence, mobility and everyday life.

A vestibular community physiotherapist can visit you in your own home to assess your symptoms and help identify what may be contributing to your dizziness or balance difficulties.

They can support people experiencing conditions such as benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) and other vestibular problems, depending on the individual’s symptoms and diagnosis.

🏡 What can a home visit help with?

A vestibular physiotherapist can:

🌀 Assess dizziness, vertigo and balance problems
👂 Carry out appropriate vestibular assessments
🛏️ Assess dizziness that occurs when changing position, such as getting into or out of bed
🔄 Provide specific repositioning manoeuvres where appropriate, such as treatment for BPPV
🏃‍♀️ Prescribe personalised exercises to improve balance, movement and confidence
🧠 Help you understand your symptoms and develop strategies to manage them
🏠 Consider how your home environment and everyday activities may be contributing to your difficulties
💚 Help you feel safer and more confident moving around your home and community

For some people, dizziness can lead to avoiding activities, reducing mobility and becoming increasingly isolated. Getting the right assessment and support can help people regain confidence and get back to doing the things that matter to them.

And because the physiotherapist can visit you in your own home, they can see how your symptoms affect you in your everyday environment and tailor their advice accordingly.

Hearing that someone has regained "their bounce" following surgery is a delight to read. This is down to the hard work of one of our specialist community physio's, Anne. If you've lost your bounce, let us see if we can help you get it back.

Having worked in the NHS ourselves, we know only too well how hard everyone works at trying to provide the best services to their patients.

But the reality is sometimes it's just not enough for an individual's needs to really regain their independence and quality of life.

In our student:client interview, we hear about why this lady felt she needed to access more physiotherapy than what was being offered.

🤔🗣 World Alzheimers Day

*What is Alzheimers?
Alzheimers is the most common type of Dementia, which is a group of symptoms which cause decline in brain functioning from memory, thinking and other mental skills.

As dementia is progressive, it means that symptoms develop over years and get more severe. This does mean the ability to plan ahead though and often put in strategies and support gradually as a person may need it.

From additional care support, specialist local day centres, emergency pendant alarms, orientation clocks, verbal reminder type alarms, automated medication machines, GPS watches.. there really are options to support a person to remain independent for as long as possible.

Locally there are lots of great services such as The Harbour Club Hullbridge Age Concern Southend on Sea day centres for your loved ones.

On behalf of SAFE Essex, the more of us that fill out this survey the better so we can share our views on digital Healthcare.

Although, we can see the pros and cons of digital health, we DO use digital resources such as online video to complete client sessions sometimes. However, we've also seen when it doesn't work for people so, we offer both online and face to face sessions

Have your say 😏 about digital Healthcare!
