Physiotherapy

Kent Community Health NHS Foundation Trust provides physiotherapy to children on a needs basis, according to the referral criteria. This covers: assessment, treatment and specialist equipment.

Physiotherapists can be contacted at the Kent Community Health NHS Physio service on 0300 790 6235.

The Physiotherapists welcome contact with families and are happy to deal with any enquiries directly. 

Referrals can be made via https://www.kentcht.nhs.uk/childrens-therapies-the-pod/

Programmes are carried out individually and incorporated into a children’s daily routine to promote inclusion in all activities.

Equipment is monitored for growth and suitability six monthly or earlier if required.  Reviews of treatment are carried out six monthly.  

Our Physio / OT Assistant works closely with the NHS physiotherapists and OTs, to support children with equipment and the delivery of programmes.
