FAQ - Your local questions
My mother is on one of the rehabilitation wards at Romsey Hospital. Can you take over when she comes home?
Yes, and it is a good moment to arrange it. Romsey Hospital’s two rehabilitation wards do focused work, and people frequently come home still improving rather than finished — the gap afterwards is where ground gets lost. Ring us while she is still in, tell us roughly when she is due out, and we will carry on the goals her therapy team have been working towards rather than starting from scratch. We will aim to get the first visit into the first week home rather than a fortnight later.
She has started missing her coffee morning, which she never used to. Is that a reason to ring us?
Yes, and it is a better signal than most people realise. Somebody dropping a fixed weekly thing they have always enjoyed is usually managing something they have not mentioned — the walk there, the step into the hall, the worry about needing the lavatory or getting home. The outing goes first and the strength follows. Nothing needs to have gone wrong for this to be worth an hour, and getting that morning back is a far better goal than any exercise we could set.
My father has dementia. Will he be able to follow what you ask him 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 holds onto a great deal that the mind cannot summon on demand, so we practise real movements in the real place — standing from his own chair, walking his own hall — rather than anything abstract. We demonstrate instead of explaining, we repeat, we come when he is at his best, and we show whoever is with him how to carry it on without it becoming a disagreement.
Do you visit the villages around Romsey?
Yes — North Baddesley, Ampfield, Braishfield, Wellow, Awbridge and the lanes around the Test valley. Romsey is our base for this part of Hampshire and the boundary is not a hard line. A village address does not change how long we stay or what we work on, and it is often where the visit is worth most, because the alternative is a drive into Southampton and a car park at the far end. If you are further out, ring and ask rather than assuming.
He found his last physiotherapist bossy and will not have another. Can you get anywhere with that?
Possibly, and it is worth one visit to find out. People who dig their heels in have usually been told rather than asked — handed a set of exercises and given goals somebody else chose. We start the other way round, with what he would like to be able to do again, even if that is only getting to his own front gate. If he does not want us back after the first visit, that is a perfectly acceptable answer and we will tell you so plainly rather than keep turning up.
She has carers twice a day and she is still getting weaker. How does that happen?
It happens more often than people think, and it is rarely anybody’s fault. A care package is set at a moment — usually just after a hospital stay or a fall — and it is written for how she was on that day. It does not adjust itself as she improves or declines. So the same two visits that were right in March can, by the autumn, be doing slightly too much, or missing the thing that has changed. We look at the visits as they are now, and at what she could be doing within them, then agree the adjustment with whoever provides the care.
Will you tell us honestly if it is not working?
Yes, and it is one of the most important things we do. We measure at the start — how far she walks, how she gets out of a chair, what she manages alone — so progress is a fact rather than an impression, and you hear after visits what has changed and what has not. If the work stops making a difference, we say so and stop rather than quietly carrying on because the visits are in the diary. Being told straight is worth more than being strung along.

Care homes in Romsey
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.
