How much service do we provide?
! Total PT service 11.2 mins/day
! 7 direct contact OOS @ 51.2 mins per visit ! Significantly more individualized services (74%) than classes (26%)
(p<0.001)
! More home treatments (66%) than centre-‐based (34%) (p<0.001) Is more necessarily be;er? -‐ a review of mobility/balance outcomes
! We have clinically posi4ve outcomes….but could we get the same with less 4me….?… Can we work smarter not harder
! Aim to increase use of Centre and Group based treatment – expecta4ons, barriers, need more groups, add MDT?

What the Research says about Group v Home Therapy
! As effec4ve as individual treatments for stroke pa4ents [7], ortho-‐geriatric clients [8] and frail older adults [9]
! More independence in walking and greater pa4ent sa4sfac4on [7] and beSer balance, func4onal tests and QOL gained [9]
! Significant reduc4on in rate of falls [10] ! Joint Replacement – same outcomes (WOMAC, SF-‐36, ROM, TUG,
6 metre walk test), most efficient with less physiotherapist’s 4me per pa4ent for centre based (direct 27 v 38 mins; indirect 10 v 26 mins) [11]
What the Research says about MDT approach to Knee Arthroplasty
! One systema4c review of cochrane database…[12]
“silver level evidence that following hip or knee joint replacement, early mulHdisciplinary rehabilitaHon can improve outcomes at the level of acHvity and parHcipaHon. The opHmal intensity, frequency and effects of rehabilitaHon over a longer period and associated social costs need further study. ”
