FAQ - Your local questions
Can you see my mother at Wexham Park before she is discharged, so we are not starting from nothing?
Usually yes, with the ward’s agreement, and it is worth asking. Seeing somebody before they come out tells us things a telephone call cannot — how she actually transfers, how far she walks with the therapy team, and what she is like late in the afternoon rather than at her best. The first visit at home then starts from where she is rather than from a blank sheet. If there is no time, it changes very little; we do the finding-out on day one instead. Either way, ring us with the date as soon as you have one.
My father has given up the bus into town. Nothing has happened to him. Is that worth a call?
Yes, and it is one of the moments worth catching. Giving up a regular journey is rarely about the legs alone — it is the step up onto the bus, the standing and waiting, and the worry about getting back if something goes wrong. Once the journey goes, the walking that came with it goes too, and the strength quietly follows within months. It responds well while it is still recent. We would work on the actual journey he wants back rather than a set of exercises in the front room.
My mother has dementia. Will she be able to follow what you ask her to do?
Very often yes, though not in the way the word ‘exercises’ suggests. We do not leave a sheet of instructions and hope. The body remembers a great deal that the mind cannot summon on demand, so we practise real movements in the real place — standing from her own chair, walking her own hall — rather than anything abstract. We demonstrate instead of explaining, we repeat, we come at the time of day she is at her best, and we show whoever is with her how to carry it on without it turning into a disagreement.
We are out at Cookham. Does that count as Maidenhead for your purposes?
Yes, and so do Bray, Holyport, Pinkneys Green, Furze Platt and the villages round about. We do not work to a strict boundary, and being a few miles from the town centre changes nothing about the visit. It is worth saying plainly because people regularly talk themselves out of ringing on the assumption that they are too far out. If you are further afield than the places named here, ring and ask — we would much rather say yes than have somebody decide for us.
My mother is in a lot of pain. I am worried that exercise will make it worse.
That is a sensible worry and it is the first thing we deal with rather than an obstacle to be got past. Pain that nobody has got on top of is one of the commonest reasons rehabilitation stalls, so we assess it properly before asking her to do anything. Physiotherapy for an older person in pain is not pushing through it — it is finding the movement that does not provoke it, building from there, and being clear about the difference between discomfort that is safe and pain that is telling us to stop. If it needs a GP or a medication review first, we will say so.
Will she see the same physiotherapist, or someone new each visit?
The same one, wherever we possibly can, and it matters more than people expect. Progress carries forward between visits, nobody has to explain their history twice, and the small adjustments that make a programme work only happen when somebody already knows how last week went. It matters for trust too, particularly for someone who was reluctant to have anyone in the house in the first place. If her regular physiotherapist is away we will tell you in advance rather than send a stranger, and whoever covers will have read the notes properly first.
Will you write to his GP, or is that for us to do?
We will, with his permission, and you should not have to be the go-between. If we find something a doctor needs to see — pain that is not controlled, a medicine affecting his balance, a swelling we are not happy about — we contact the surgery directly rather than leaving you to pass a message on. It works the other way too: if his GP or a consultant at Wexham Park wants to know how the rehabilitation is going, we will tell them. Families have enough to carry without being the switchboard as well.

Care homes in Maidenhead
Most of this work is arranged and paid for privately by families — a block of visits after a fall or a hospital stay, or ongoing work to keep someone moving. It sits alongside whatever the home already provides, and we work with their staff so the exercises carry on between our visits. You can read more about additional physiotherapy for residents.
