Use this metric to know if your patients really value your service 👇 Percent of arrivals is a GREAT indicator of whether or not a patient is valuing your physical therapy services. If you book 10 sessions for a therapist and 9 of them show, it's a 90% arrival rate. If your clinic is at a 90-95% arrival rate then you know those patients are valuing and prioritizing the service. If not, then you've got some work to do. Tony Maritato keeps a close eye on this metric. 👀 #physicaltherapy #healthcare #healthcaretechnology #occupationaltherapy

Physical therapy is the most underutilized form of medicine in healthcare today. When you have a proven method and only a third of HIGH RISK patients are using it there is a serious issue at the root of healthcare. Part of the reason I came back to the physical therapy world was awareness and education. It is no longer okay to accept these low percentages when the effects can be life changing. Hospitals are overworked and understaffed and we are doing no favors in not having more exercise based interventions for seniors. One day at a time, one patient at a time. #physicaltherapy #rehab #exercise

In the realm of healthcare, trust is the cornerstone of effective patient care. This sentiment is beautifully encapsulated in the phrase, "when I refer, I defer," uttered by a referring doctor. It speaks volumes about the relationship between healthcare professionals and the trust they place in each other's expertise. In the context of physical therapy, this statement underscores the importance of collaboration and mutual respect between referring doctors and physical therapists. It signifies that when a doctor refers a patient for physical therapy, they trust the therapist's judgment and skill, deferring to their specialized knowledge to provide the best possible care for the patient. This level of trust not only fosters seamless coordination of care but also instills confidence in patients, knowing they are in capable hands throughout their journey. #physicaltherapy #musculoskeletal

🤫 Shhh... Are you listening? In healthcare, we have a problem: Doctors interrupt patients after just 11 seconds on average. But as physical therapists, we have a unique opportunity: To truly LISTEN to our patients' full stories. Here's why it matters: - Builds trust - Reveals crucial details - Leads to better outcomes Hold on to this post as a reminder to listen more! 🔖 #PhysicalTherapy #ManualTherapy #RehabClinician #ClinicianQuotes

In my experience, I have come to appreciate the role of holistic treatments in modern-day medicine. The human body transcends the physical plane, and a dis-ease is first psychological before manifesting as physical. Therefore, it should be handled holistically, incorporating all aspects. The future of healthcare holds exciting possibilities. More hospitals will likely house full holistical units into patient care and treatment plans. #Healthcare #HolisticMedicine #PatientCare #NHS #NHSENGLAND
