Home Visit Physiotherapy: When Is It Right For You

What Is Home Visit Physiotherapy?


Home visit physiotherapy brings assessment and treatment directly to your place of residence, whether that's your own home, a nursing home, or a day-care centre. At 365 Physiotherapy, we offer this alongside our Santry and Swords clinic services across North Dublin and selected areas of South Dublin.



Who Benefits Most From Home Visits?


  • Older adults managing mobility, balance or frailty concerns
  • Post-surgery patients who are not yet cleared to drive or find travel difficult
  • People with neurological conditions such as stroke or Parkinson's
  • Nursing home and day-care residents
  • Anyone without easy access to transport to a clinic
  • Patients recovering from conditions that limit safe travel


    • Benefits of Treatment at Home


  • Comfort and familiarity of your own environment
  • Real-world functional assessment — your physiotherapist can see how you manage your actual stairs, bathroom, or furniture, not a generic clinic setup
  • Reduced travel burden, particularly important for frail or post-surgical patients
  • Family or carer involvement in exercises and home safety advice
  • Fall risk and home safety assessment as part of your visit


    • What a Home Visit Involves


  • A full assessment of your condition, mobility and function
  • Hands-on treatment where appropriate
  • A tailored home exercise programme
  • Practical advice on your specific home environment (stairs, bathroom safety, mobility aids)
  • Ongoing review as your condition progresses


    • When Might a Clinic Visit Be Better?


    Home visits are not always the right fit — clinic sessions may be preferable if you need access to specific equipment, or once you are mobile enough that travelling is no longer a barrier. Many patients transition from home visits to clinic sessions as they progress, and we can advise on what makes sense for you.
