NWRH 'CLIENT SUCCESS' STORY 💫
Here at NWRH we love to celebrate the successes of our clients. Todays story is all about 'John'; referred to NWRH through the transitional care program (TCP) after a fall at home in Bowen. Whilst on the program, John stayed in Townsville but was motivated to return home 🏡
Working with Occupational Therapist (OT) Chanyce to support achieving his goals to improve mobility and reduce his risk of falls at home and in community, John was able to return home and return to doing the activities he enjoys such as gardening 🍃
John has been a farmer his whole life and together with his wife established a tomato farm that is now run by his children. During the last session John invited OT Chanyce to tour the family tomato farm, seeing the processing plant, growing process and meeting all the workers, who were very excited to see John back at the farm where we captured him sneaking a tomato or two from the sorting machine 🍅🍅
