Physical disability care: what it means
Hoists and other equipment, personal care, and steady encouragement to stay independent: that is the day-to-day of physical disability care. It serves people whose movement or strength is limited by conditions including MS, arthritis, spinal injury, Parkinson's and stroke.
What to ask about physical disability care
- Are staff trained in moving and handling, including hoists and slings?
- What equipment do you provide, and what must we arrange?
- How do you prevent pressure sores and falls?
- Will two carers be available when two are needed?
- How do you support independence rather than doing everything for the person?
