"Hydrotherapy -South West Child Health Services"

About: Child Health Services - WACHS South West

(as a service user),

Cherie and her physiotherapy team have gone above and beyond to create the opportunity for our family to access hydrotherapy services in the South West. It has been vital to our children’s health as we have multiple children with issues that affect their ability to breathe and swallow and exercise and with Cherie’s support, we have utilised hydrotherapy to assist in their exercise tolerance and ability to perform everyday activities that others take for granted.

We have seen a significant improvement in all three children, and their ability to attend school each day and function has been significantly improved to the point where one of our children who has been unable to achieve a full week of attendance all year now managing most weeks.

We cannot fault the Hudson Road Child Health Service where we have been supported by physiotherapy, speech therapy, occupational therapy, audiology and podiatry and social work. We feel very lucky to have such a great team of people supporting our children through their struggles.

Hi snoweq39,

Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on the Child Development Services we provide in Bunbury. We have recently reintroduced the hydrotherapy programme as part of the child development services we provide and it is fantastic to hear the positive impact it has had on your children’s health and increased their capacity to attend school. This type of feedback assists us to plan and provide services that meet the needs of the families who access our services.

I will have great pleasure to provide this positive feedback to Cherie and the team who have worked hard to recommence the Child Development hydrotherapy programme. Plus extend the appreciation of the support you have received from our whole Child Development Team at Hudson Road.

Kind regards,

Kirsten Bosich

Manager South West Child Development Services
