Cantley Medical: Game on for health – Boost function and independence in aged care

Enhance home-based care with telerehabilitation – revolutionising aged care


Elevate your approach to aged care with our cutting-edge telerehabilitation services, designed to deliver effective and personalised therapy from the comfort of home. Telerehabilitation offers a revolutionary solution for maintaining function, independence, and overall wellness in older adults, backed by compelling research and real-world success.



Why Opt for Telerehabilitation?

  1. Convenience and accessibility: Telerehabilitation provides unparalleled convenience by enabling patients to receive therapy without the need for travel. This is particularly beneficial for those with mobility issues or transportation challenges. Research published in the Journal of Telemedicine and Telecare highlights that home-based telerehabilitation significantly reduces barriers to accessing care, enhancing continuity and adherence to therapy.


  1. Personalised and effective care: Through advanced technology, telerehabilitation allows for the customisation of therapy programs tailored to individual needs. A study in Telemedicine and e-Health demonstrates that telerehabilitation can be as effective as in-person therapy for various conditions, including stroke recovery and musculoskeletal disorders, offering similar, if not superior, outcomes.


  1. Improved patient engagement: By integrating interactive tools and virtual support, telerehabilitation boosts patient motivation and engagement. According to research in The Journal of Aging Research and Clinical Practice, patients involved in telerehabilitation programs show higher levels of participation and satisfaction, contributing to better long-term adherence to therapeutic exercises.


  1. Enhanced monitoring and support: Telerehabilitation provides real-time monitoring and feedback, allowing therapists to track progress and make adjustments as needed. Studies in BMC Geriatrics demonstrate that remote monitoring and regular virtual consultations can lead to improved management of chronic conditions and reduced hospitalisations, thanks to proactive adjustments and timely interventions.


  1. Cost-effective solution: In addition to improving accessibility and engagement, telerehabilitation is a cost-effective solution for aged care. Research in Health Affairs indicates that telerehabilitation can reduce healthcare costs by minimising the need for in-person visits, lowering travel expenses, and preventing costly hospital readmissions.

Unlock a brighter future with game-based rehabilitation and exercise in aged care


As a dedicated health professional in aged care, you understand the importance of innovative approaches to enhance function, wellness, and independence in older adults.



Embrace the future of rehabilitation with game-based exercise programs, a cutting-edge

solution that combines the latest technology with evidence-based practice to deliver superior outcomes for your patients.


Why integrate game-based rehabilitation?

Game-based rehabilitation and exercise offer a sophisticated and engaging method to improve both physical and cognitive functions among older adults. By transforming traditional rehabilitation exercises into interactive, game-like activities, this approach not only motivates but also significantly enhances patient outcomes.


Research-validated advantages

  • Enhanced physical function: Evidence from the *Journal of Geriatric Physical Therapy* indicates that video game-based balance training results in substantial improvements in gait, stability, and overall physical function, effectively reducing fall risk in older adults.


  • Cognitive benefits: According to a review in Neuropsychology Review, cognitive training games have demonstrated notable improvements in memory, attention, and executive functioning, offering a valuable tool for cognitive enhancement in older populations.


  • Increased patient engagement: Game-based rehabilitation incorporates elements

    of fun and competition, which significantly boosts patient motivation and adherence. The *Journal of Aging and Physical Activity* highlights that older adults show improved compliance and enthusiasm for their exercise routines when participating in game-based activities.


  • Personalisation and adaptability: Modern game-based systems offer adaptive features that tailor exercises to the individual’s progress and abilities. This personalised approach ensures that rehabilitation is both effective and engaging, aligning with each patient’s specific needs and goals.
