MSK Physiotherapist (Remote)

Responsibilities

We are seeking a skilled and experienced physiotherapist with a background in musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions to join our remote healthcare team.

• Provide diagnosis, prescription of self-management techniques, and onward referrals
• Manage customer pathways, delivering the most appropriate clinical outcomes

• Provide remote guidance and instruction on proper exercise techniques, injury prevention strategies, and self-management strategies for managing MSK conditions
• Offer remote consultations to address patients' questions, concerns, and progress updates, providing ongoing support and motivation throughout their rehabilitation journey
• Stay current with advancements in MSK physiotherapy practice and participate in continuing education opportunities to enhance clinical skills and knowledge
• Commitment to providing high-quality, patient-centered care and promoting the overall health and well-being of patients
