Never Settle for a Single Answer

Do you ever settle for a simple answer when you ask your patient a question?This is especially a challenge for newer PTs.  When we first start out we're often just 'checking the box.'Do you have constipation?  No?  Good.  But without asking open-ended follow-up questions we'll never learn the information we truly need to best help our patients and provide individualized care.This week you're getting a challenge - follow-up every question you ask with three additional questions.  You'll be amazed at how much deeper your conversations will go and how much more you learn.And the more you learn about your patient, the better you can help!PelvicSanity Hiring!The PelvicSanity expansion project is almost complete, which means we now have the room to hire additional team members!  Send a resume and cover letter to [email protected] to be considered or check out the posting here.Pelvic PT EssentialsIf you'd like to get more confident in your clinical practice, progress your patient through the 4 Phases of Treatment and improve your communication skills, check out the Pelvic PT Essentials course!Shout Out and Get in Touch!If you're enjoying the podcast, please take a few seconds to take a screenshot and put it up in your Instagram Stories and tag Nicole (@nicolecozeandpt).  Or send us an email at [email protected] with your thoughts, questions or ideas.  We'd love to hear from you!About UsNicole and Jesse Cozean founded PelvicSanity Physical Therapy together in 2016.  It grew quickly into one of the largest cash-based physical therapy practices in the country.Get in Touch!Learn more at www.pelvicptrising.com, follow Nicole @nicolecozeandpt (www.instagram.com/nicolecozeandpt) or reach out via email ([email protected]).Check out our Clinical Courses, Business Resources and learn more about us at Pelvic PT Rising...Let's Continue to Rise!
