SIX MONTHLY REVIEW  Review FAMA Assessment  Review Care Plan and LMO recommendations  Compliance with Recommendations recorded and discussed with client  Revise Care Plan Sunbury Community Health Centre Inc.

Problems Encountered Clients who do not attend ongoing centre programs, tend not to return for six monthly review. LMO’s do not always follow-up on recommendations for specialist clinic referrals. Vestibular conditions identified but not well treated. Sunbury Community Health Centre Inc.

CLIENT FEEDBACK (Anecdotal Narrative) * Client compliance is high due to accessibility to internal services and familiarity with staff. Sunbury Community Health Centre Inc. * Clients favour multidisciplinary assessment in one session at one location. * Clients feel ‘listened to’ and have the opportunity to have an extended consultation time to discuss a range of issues with FAMA health professionals. * Discussion / Sharing experiences with other ‘fallers’. * Greater understanding of multiple factors that can contribute to falling. * Clients prefer local assessment intervention.
