Patient-Centered Care in Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy

Overview:

Musculoskeletal physiotherapy needs to move towards a broader biopsychosocial understanding of musculoskeletal conditions and the delivery of high-value care for people with persistent pain conditions, in which a patient-centered approach is a key feature.

However, it has been reported that clinicians experience difficulties with integrating patient-centered care principles into their clinical practice.

Objectives:

The objective of this online course is to provide knowledge, practical insights, and tools regarding providing patient-centered care in musculoskeletal physiotherapy.
