Connect Before You Correct > The Key To Finding The Right Patient Diagnosis
from The New Grad Physio Podcast · host Andy Barker
Connect before you correct. This is so important to the effectiveness of your patient assessments and your ability to find the right patient diagnosis. You need your patients to tell you everything, like their injury history, past medical history, social and drug history, so you can get to the bottom of their problem… But they are not going to do this if they do not feel safe and comfortable in your presence. Regardless of what injury you are dealing with, you are always dealing with a person. Person first, injury second. Connect first…. Then you correct. You might think this is harder than it sounds, but it is easy to do, and so important to the effectiveness of your patient assessments… And I’ll show you exactly how to do this in this special podcast episode. Enjoy the show! PS. Andy would love to hear your feedback on this podcast. Please leave a review or get in touch at [email protected] and he will get right back to you.
