Care Reports & Occupational Therapy

Musculoskeletal physiotherapy is based on the assessment of soft tissue injury, boney injury and the rehabilitative process that is undertaken to gain optimum recovery. Physiotherapists are involved in almost every aspect of clinical management from A&E Triage, Clinical Assessment Units, Remote or Telephone Triage, APP (Advanced Clinical Practitioners), FCP (First Contact Practitioners) to general physiotherapy in the Out-patient (clinic) or patient (hospital) setting.
