## How a Freedom Medical Alarm Works

1. In case of a medical emergency or fall, press the red button on your medical alarm pendant (Wrist band, Brooch or necklace).
2. This sends a signal to your base unit which is either plugged into your phone line or on a mobile network.
3. Within seconds, a trained triage specialist will receive the alarm and attempt to contact you via the base unit's 2 way speaker.
4. If there is no response or attention is requested by the patient, an ambulance will be dispatched to your home.

## Key benefits of a Medical Alarm
It can often be hard to be on hand 24/7 for a loved one when they need you. If living alone but unable to afford daily care, it is important that if something was to go wrong, that an ambulance is on call straight away. This is the value a medical alarm can bring, providing you with piece of mind when you are away.

* Direct connection to medical emergency triage specialists
* Ambulance charges from the use of a medical alarm are **free** as part of our service
* Optional Key Safe to enable quick access for paramedics in an emergency
* Connection to specialist community health services with post-accident support

There are many reasons why having a Freedom Medical Alarm is an important part of taking care of your loved ones. Contact the team today or visit our website for more information.

I started my Physiotherapy clinic from my home in Raumati Beach in November 2015 after specialising in treating patients with neurological conditions for over 25 years and vestibular conditions for over 16 years in the public health system. My clinic consists of a clinic room and a gym in a private setting with ample off street parking space. My main areas of practice are:

Vestibular Rehabilitation: The assessment and treatment of people with vertigo, dizziness and balance problems. These can be from a number of causes including inner ear problems, stroke and other neurological conditions, decreased vestibular function due to aging and dizziness caused by anxiety. I use specialised infra-red video goggles to help with diagnosis. I have treated over 2000 people with  Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) alone.

Neurological Rehabilitation: I work with people who have had a stroke and been discharged from the hospital system, people with Parkinson's Disease who need help maintaining or initiating an exercise programme and people with other neurological conditions with balance and mobility problems and/or dizziness .

Elderly who have balance problems, falls or fear of falling. 

I also do home visits if required.

First Assessments usually take 1 hour to complete and follow-up appointments are for 30 minutes.

I also work one day/fortnight in the Neurology Department at Wellington Public Hospital doing Vestibular Function Testing. I have a close working relationship with the Neurologists who I can seek advice from when required.
Since 2006 I have been teaching 2-day Vestibular Rehabilitation Introductory Courses to other Physiotherapists in NZ. Since 2011 I have been teaching 2-day Advanced Courses in Vestibular Rehabilitation.

I have been involved in a number of research studies to do with Vestibular disorders. I completed my Masters of Health Sciences endorsed in Rehabilitation from Otago University in 2009. My research thesis was on Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) and has since been published in the Journal of Clinical Neuroscience. Other completed research is being prepared for publication.

I am a member of Physiotherapy NZ, our professional society, and am on the committee of the New Zealand Society for Balance, Dizziness and Vertigo Inc. This is a multidisciplinary scientific society that holds annual scientific meetings to improve knowledge for clinicians working with patients suffering from these symptoms.

I have attended and presented at numerous conferences nationally and internationally and completed post-graduate training in Vestibular Rehabilitation in the USA in 2004 and 2007.

We are a Specialist Medical centre offering private consultations, endoscopy and office procedures in urology, general and breast surgery.
