Home Visits
Atlas Physio is happy to provide you with clinical sessions in the privacy of your own home. We provide these services for clients who cannot make it to our clinic in Fairfield, for those clients who would prefer a more convenient and time-sensitive consultation, or for those clients whose state of health means that they cannot leave their places of residence or care.
Atlas Physio has provided in-home care to clients in their own houses, in retirement homes, and in residential aged care facilities. Since its founding, Atlas Physio has served the communities of the North and Northeast suburbs including Thornbury, Northcote, Westgarth, Ivanhoe, Heidelberg, Abbotsford, Darebin, Brunswick, Preston, Coburg, Fairfield, Reservoir and Alphington.
Home visits are conducted differently to normal clinical visits - be sure to familiarise yourself with the differences between home and in-clinic visits.
Scheduling
Home visits are not able to be scheduled online. To schedule a home visit, dial 0400 174 015 to speak to a clinician and to schedule your visit.
Payment
Home visits are charged differently to in-clinic appointments. This is to address costs associated with travel, time, and the unique needs of our patients' in-home environments. Be sure to familiarise yourself with the differences in pricing as noted in our fee schedule.
Specials
Sessions conducted on a home-visit basis are eligible for discounts.
Attendance Policy
Once a home visit has been scheduled and confirmed, it is your responsibility to be present at the nominated address at the nominated time. In the event that the client resides in a gated community, critical care unit or other such location that requires security access, you are responsible to inform the administrators of that location that the appointment is taking place.
Cancellation Policy
Home visits may be cancelled with at least 24-hours notice.
Confidentiality
Home visits conducted in assisted retirement homes, residential aged care facilities, domiciles, critical care units and other supervised residences may require our clinicians to liaise with other medical staff. In this event, we will abide by the consent and privacy policy stated on our website, and we will always endeavour to respect our patients' confidentiality.
