Best Aged Care experience I’ve had is with warrigal, as they employ their Physio’s, which gives greater support and sense of team. The good thingsPhysio Management is approachable and listens. Can implement initiatives and innovations quickly and more sustainable, than in NSW Health. Fee a sense of team work, as Warrigal employs its OWN staff Physio’s, so we get to know team and Resident’s far better, and feel far more connected to the organisation than if we were sub-contracting. Salary Packaging available.
The challengesTypical challenges that everyone onAged Care sector experiences: low ratios, overstretched, low level of qualifications and expertise, very poor medical back up from GP’s and clinical follow through. ACFI funding, rather than clinical solutions drive Physio intervention. Physio work can be boring, you just have to vary and come up with creative ways to motivate residents and use goals and themes to give incentive.
