The level of support from your team has been incredible. My mom has fallen a couple of times in the past, and it was taking a toll on her confidence. Our physiotherapist took the time to understand her needs and improve her balance at a comfortable pace. Our sessions never felt rushed and I appreciate how we were taught things that we would never really learn on our own, like home design tips and proper transfer techniques.
