We provide in-patient physiotherapy services for private hospitals in Adelaide.
Adelaide Acute Physiotherapy have provided physiotherapy services to St Andrew’s Hospital in Adelaide since 2015. Our physiotherapy team members are fully accredited and are experienced in acute care hospital practice.
Private hospitals are renowned for their exceptional standards of care, especially when it comes to acute medical conditions that require immediate attention and treatment. In this high-stakes environment, post-operative care holds a critical place, and at the heart of this care are the dedicated physiotherapists. These skilled professionals play a pivotal role in aiding patients' recovery by focusing on mobility, function, and overall wellness following surgery.
Dashanka Soodan and Vivienne Maxwell lead our on-site therapists, as dedicated practitioners with primary experience in acute care.
Our care is guided by goals primarily identified through consultation with our patients and their treating medical team. We select interventions proven as safe, effective, and appropriate to the individual. We work together with the patient’s clinical teams in all aspects of their stay in private hospital including care within the Critical Care Unit, and recommendations with complex discharge plans.

Directors of Adelaide Acute Physiotherapy, Dashi and Viv.
According to the Australian Physiotherapy Association, in acute settings, physiotherapy is integral to our hospital system.
Physiotherapists work as part of a multidisciplinary team and are uniquely qualified to provide complex advanced care patients in critical care areas, including in emergency, intensive care, and rehabilitation wards. Physiotherapy care also extends to respiratory conditions, general surgical, neurology, orthopaedic surgery and obstetrics.
Our team here at Adelaide Acute Physiotherapy provide individualised care and a focus on complication prevention which significantly impacts the success of surgeries and the overall welfare of patients. Guided by our physiotherapists, patients can regain physical abilities, restore independence, and transition smoothly back to their daily routines. The collaboration between private hospitals and physiotherapists exemplifies the commitment to delivering comprehensive and patient-centric care in acute settings.
