We are a group of specialised physiotherapists who work in various areas:

Domiciliary
Neuro-rehabilitation team
Learning disability
Rehabilitation and enablement in the community

Rehabilitation outpatients
Head injuries
Respiratory
Palliative care

We take a holistic approach and work closely with other health professionals. We are able to help in a variety of ways such as:

Mobility aids
Falls advice

Rehabilitation
Neuro-rehabilitation and advice
Advice to carers on mobility issues

Patients can be referred by health professionals or GPs or may self refer themselves for walking aids when they need them on medical grounds.

Where patients will be seen will depend on their needs. This may be in their own homes, in outpatients or as an inpatient.

A reminder about visitor restrictions

To families of all our patients, we wanted to give a reminder that sadly, at both Bedford and the Luton & Dunstable Hospital, we are still unable to allow any visitors on site, unless there are exceptional circumstances, for example in maternity or children’s departments, or for those patients who are receiving palliative treatment at the end of their lives, on a case-by-case basis.

At Bedford changes are being made to support services and we would now ask that, from Saturday 6 June 2020, you contact the wards using the direct lines found here.

For the Luton & Dunstable, we are offering a dedicated Next of Kin helpline for family members who want to check up on their loved ones – please nominate one family member to call 01582 718884 between 8am and 6pm.
