FCP First Contact Practitioner

This involves acute physio treatment for patients on the day without a prior appointment. Patients can access this service by completing an eConsult or speaking to a member of reception staff. The FCP has proved to be very successful and saves patients needing to see their GP. 

Orthopaedic Triage Service 

This means that patients will see a physio specialist before they potentially go to orthopaedics. This frees up the patient and GP's time.

What can I expect?

A full assessment and case history is undertaken by the skilled Physiotherapists. The patients current and previous medical history is reviewed to ensure the best treatment and rehabilitation for their recovery is the most appropriate for them. A physical assessment and examination will then be carried out. After this, a diagnosis and explanation of the injury will be provided to the patient with a plan of action for the treatment and rehabilitation. Advice regarding nutrition and lifestyle changes may be provided. A follow-up appointment will be offered to achieve goals - to recover, improve  and maintain fitness and wellbeing.
