As a Level 4 PSI, I spent five years working with Sutton & Merton NHS Falls Prevention Team. Using evidence based exercise (OTAGO/FaME), we succeeded in providing a wonderful rehabilitation service for people who were falling or were fearful of falling. The NHS service is still running in Sutton, and I now run these sessions as an ongoing service based in the community. I also offer a stroke rehabilitation circuit training session to increase quality, stability and range of movement for people who have had a stroke.
