How to prepare for appointment with your physiotherapist

waiting for physiotherapy session

Gather Information: Compile any relevant medical records, test results, or reports related to your condition or previous treatments. This includes details about surgeries, medications, and any recent changes in symptoms.

Write Down Questions: Take some time to jot down any questions or concerns you have about your condition, treatment options, or rehabilitation process. This ensures that you don't forget anything during your appointment.

Wear Comfortable Clothing: Choose attire that allows easy movement and access to the areas of your body that may need assessment or treatment. This facilitates the physiotherapist's evaluation and makes it more comfortable for you during exercises or manipulations.

Arrive Early: Aim to arrive at the clinic or appointment location a few minutes early to complete any necessary paperwork and ensure a timely start to your session. Punctuality allows you to make the most of your scheduled time with the physiotherapist.

Bring Necessary Items: If you have any assistive devices, such as braces, orthotics, or walking aids, remember to bring them along. Additionally, if you're using insurance to cover the appointment, bring your insurance card and any relevant documentation.

Be Open and Honest: During your appointment, be prepared to discuss your medical history, current symptoms, and any challenges you're facing. Being open and honest with your physiotherapist helps them tailor the treatment plan to your specific needs.

Set Realistic Goals: Reflect on your goals for rehabilitation and communicate them clearly to your physiotherapist. Whether you're aiming to improve mobility, manage pain, or enhance overall function, setting realistic expectations ensures a collaborative approach to your care.

Follow Instructions: If your physiotherapist provides any pre-appointment instructions, such as exercises to perform or precautions to take, make sure to follow them diligently. This helps optimize the effectiveness of your treatment.

Stay Engaged: Actively participate in the evaluation process and treatment discussions. Ask questions, seek clarification if needed, and actively engage in the exercises or techniques recommended by your physiotherapist.

Access and Location: Confirm the location and accessibility of your physiotherapy appointment, especially if mobility is a concern. If travel is challenging, inquire about home visits or virtual consultations.

Take Notes: Consider bringing a notebook or using your smartphone to take notes during the appointment. This allows you to capture important information, exercise demonstrations, and key takeaways to reference later on.

IF AN APPOINTMENT WILL TAKE PLACE IN YOUR PLACE

Optimise Environment and Prepare Space: Ensure if possible, there is a clear and comfortable space in your home where the physiotherapist can conduct assessments safely and effectively and guide you through exercises.

Confirm Details for Home Visits: Make sure you informed physiotherapist about parking restrictions, how to access property and about pets at home.

Ensure you have clarified the scheduling, frequency, and any preparations required for the physiotherapist's home visits. Expecially to do not clash with other services e.g. care agencies. 

Our Customers' Experience

Charles Plawman
WWII Veteran

I am 98 and slowly started losing my mobility, but I refused to get old and asked for support from RS Physio. They supplied me with essential equipment and supported me with exercises. It was easier than I thought.
