Why This Matters

A More Complete Approach to Falls Risk and
Movement Confidence

Falls risk is rarely caused by one factor alone.

Changes in walking pattern, foot function, balance, strength, confidence and mobility can all play a role. Yet many falls pathways focus on only one part of the picture.

Our Falls Assessment Clinic has been developed to offer a more integrated approach, beginning with a podiatry-led assessment of gait, foot function and movement, then connecting patients into a broader coordinated care pathway where appropriate.

Gait
Walking pattern analysis
How you move is central to understanding your falls risk.
Foot
Foot function assessment
Foot mechanics and footwear are often over looked factors in stability.
Care
Coordinated care pathway
Connected to local allied health providers for whole-person support.

What Makes This Different

A Falls Clinic With A Difference

A podiatry-led clinic shaped by real patient need.

"This clinic was developed in response to what we were already observing in practice."

Through our work with patients on The Sunshine Coast and Brisbane over the last 40 years, we saw the importance that gait, foot function and movement can play in supporting stability.

This, combined with seeing a need from our patients for a more holistic and coordinated approach to balance, mobility and wellbeing as they age, led to us creating the first podiatry-led falls assessment clinic on the Sunshine Coast.

Collaborative Care

Built in Partnership With Local Providers

The Falls Assessment Clinic is being developed in collaboration with a network of local providers on the Sunshine Coast.

This model allows patients to access a more coordinated approach to care ,bringing together podiatry-led assessment with complementary services that support strength, balance, movement and confidence.

How The Clinic Works

How the Falls Assessment Clinic Works

Assessment first. Then a coordinated pathway based on your needs.

Podiatry-led falls assessment

Your assessment begins with a podiatrist, who will take the time to understand your history, concerns, pain, movement changes and lifestyle goals.

Gait, foot function and movement review

We assess how you walk, how your body transfers load, and whether foot function, footwear or mechanical factors may be contributing to instability.

Identification of contributing factors

We identify the factors that may be increasing your falls risk or reducing your confidence in movement.

Coordinated care pathway

Based on your assessment, we guide you toward the most appropriate next steps. This may include podiatry treatment, orthotic support where clinically appropriate, and referral into partnered allied health or movement services.

Ongoing support through the clinic network

The aim is not simply to assess falls risk, but to connect you into a more complete pathway to support balance, mobility and confidence.
