Keeping our seniors mobile, safe and happy is what we do. The Physio Co offers private physiotherapy consults for all aged care residents. Physiotherapy can improve mobility, balance, strength, well-being and pain relief. Getting a little extra weekly or fortnightly physio can make a huge difference to quality of life.

Funding for private sessions may be may be provided by Medicare (EPC), DVA, the resi themselves or the resi’s family.

How it works

• EPC/Medicare. Residents with a Medicare card suffering from a chronic condition and/or complex care needs are eligible for up to 5 bulk-billed physiotherapy sessions per year through the Enhanced Primary Care (EPC) Program.
• DVA. Low Care residents with a DVA Gold or White card are entitled to unlimited 1:1 and group physiotherapy sessions.
• User-pays. If resi’s are not eligible for Medicare or DVA funded sessions, they (or their family) may choose to pay for private physiotherapy consultations.  These sessions can be claimed on a resident’s private health insurance if they have appropriate extras cover.
