Improving Care, Compliance, and Resident Outcomes

Key Benefits

  • Our Impact: Measurable Outcomes That Matter

    Reeflex Mind & Motion delivers physiotherapy-led outcomes you can evidence, report, and act on.

    Across a 12-week pilot programme, residents demonstrated clinically meaningful improvements in physical and cognitive function:

    • Zero falls recorded during the 12-week programme period

    • 85% improvement in functional strength

    • 48% improvement in mobility speed

    • 33% improvement in limb control and coordination

    • 22% increase in cognitive engagement

    • 10% improvement in MMSE cognitive scores

    These outcomes translate directly into safer residents, reduced clinical risk, and smoother day-to-day care delivery.

    Proven Results with Runwood Homes

    During our 12-week physiotherapy-led programme delivered within a Runwood home:

    • Zero falls recorded throughout the programme

    • Clear improvements in balance, strength, and mobility

    • Increased resident confidence and participation

    • Positive feedback from wellbeing teams and management

    Crucially, the programme didn't just deliver sessions — it produced clear, structured clinical reports that Runwood identified as highly valuable.

    Physiotherapy Reports That Strengthen Care Plans

    Every resident receives individualised assessment and outcome reports, designed to integrate seamlessly into existing care plans.

    These reports include:

    • Baseline and follow-up mobility, balance, and strength findings

    • Falls risk indicators and functional limitations

    • Cognitive engagement observations

    • Clear, practical recommendations for daily care and activity support

    Care teams can use these reports to:

    • Inform safer manual handling decisions

    • Guide activity coordinators and carers on appropriate movement support

    • Evidence proactive falls prevention and rehabilitation strategies

    • Demonstrate ongoing clinical oversight during inspections

    This approach supports CQC expectations around assessment, monitoring, and person-centred care, while reducing guesswork for staff.

    What This Means for Your Care Home

    ✔ Fewer falls and reduced hospital admissions
    ✔ Lower strain on staff through improved resident independence
    ✔ Reduced manual handling risk and equipment wear
    ✔ Stronger inspection-ready evidence for CQC reviews
    ✔ Clear added value for families and commissioners
    ✔ Improved resident confidence, engagement, and quality of life

    Evidence-Based. Physiotherapy-Led. Care-Plan Focused.

    Reeflex Mind & Motion is not a generic exercise class.
    It is a structured physiotherapy intervention designed to improve outcomes, reduce risk, and support care homes in delivering safer, higher-quality care.

    Better data. Better care decisions. Better outcomes for residents.

Outcome Data Section

Average Functional and Cognitive Improvement Over 12 Weeks

The Reeflex Mind & Motion pilot achieved consistent improvements across all key measures of strength, balance, and cognition.
Residents demonstrated higher confidence during movement and daily tasks, while staff reported greater independence and participation in group activities.

These measurable improvements support both resident wellbeing and care home efficiency, helping reduce falls, improve safety, and ease daily care demands.

"Since introducing the Reeflex sessions, our residents are noticeably more confident when walking and more engaged during activities. The programme has made a real difference to our home."

Safer Residents, Sustainable Savings

💡 Preventing just one fall can offset a significant proportion of the annual programme cost.

Falls are one of the largest hidden cost drivers in care homes — creating pressure through staff time, documentation, monitoring, equipment use, and increased care dependency.

By improving resident strength, balance, mobility, and cognitive stability, Reeflex Mind & Motion reduces falls risk by up to 30%, while also lowering wider operational strain across the home

Estimated Annual Savings (20-Resident Care Home – Conservative Modelling)

💷 Falls Reduction: £12,000–£36,000
Reduced incident response, monitoring, investigations, paperwork, and recovery-related care time.

👩‍⚕️ Reduced Staffing & Agency Use: £6,000–£12,000
Improved resident independence reduces double-ups, reactive 1:1 support, overtime, and agency reliance.

🛠️ Reduced Equipment Wear & Maintenance: £2,000–£4,000
Less strain on hoists, slings, wheelchairs, and profiling beds.

👤 Reduced 1:1 Supervision Needs: £6,000–£18,000
Lower need for observation due to improved mobility, balance, and cognitive engagement.

🏡 Improved Occupancy Retention: £4,000–£7,200
Healthier, more stable residents are less likely to require early discharge or higher-dependency placement.

🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Improved Staff Retention: £2,000–£4,000
Reduced manual handling burden supports staff wellbeing and retention.

Total Financial Impact

Total estimated annual savings: £32,000–£81,000
Annual programme cost (20 residents): £11,520

Return on Investment (ROI): 278% – 603%
Typical cost recovery: Within the first 2–4 months

All figures are based on care-home-specific costs only and use conservative assumptions to maintain accuracy and transparency

More Than Cost Savings

Alongside financial impact, homes also benefit from:

  • Zero falls recorded during programme delivery in pilot settings

  • Clear physiotherapy reports integrated into care plans

  • Stronger CQC evidence for proactive risk management

  • Improved resident confidence, engagement, and quality of life

  • Reduced reactive care and smoother daily operations

Transparent, Evidence-Based Modelling

These figures are drawn from real pilot outcomes and conservative operational modelling. Results may vary slightly between homes depending on resident profiles, but the mechanisms for savings remain consistent.

A multi-home validation phase is available to further strengthen benchmarking and governance evidence

💡 Reeflex reduces operational strain, strengthens regulatory compliance, and supports safer, more independent residents.
