City Hospital

Dear Physiotherapist,

I am referring Mr. Andrew Wilson, a 55-year-old man recovering from a left knee replacement three weeks ago, for physiotherapy intervention.

Mr. Wilson currently mobilizes with crutches but reports slow walking and difficulty climbing stairs. He resides in a two-storey house with his wife, who is supportive but unable to provide physical assistance.

I would appreciate your input in providing physiotherapy focused on improving his strength, mobility, and stair management. Additionally, home safety advice regarding safe transfers and fall prevention would be beneficial.

Thank you for your assistance in his rehabilitation.

Yours sincerely,
Occupational Therapist
