PhysioLine

Connect has developed a rapid access (within 48 hours) physiotherapy telephone service, operated remotely from a Connect call centre by specially trained Chartered Occupational Physiotherapists.

Self help advice is given to the employee, supplemented by relevant information, which is posted/emailed where appropriate.  Management advice is also provided to the employer.  Where necessary, our PhysioLine service can be combined with on-site workplace assessments or 'On-Site'/'Off-Site' treatment services.

Our evidence suggests that on average, 40% of traditional physiotherapy (face to face) appointments can be reduced by accessing our PhysioLine service, resulting in improved efficiencies and cost savings through reduced absence.

Features Include:

• Pay as you Go (no annual contract of fee) low cost/value for money service
• 48 hour response time from referral to appointment offered
• Highly trained physiotherapists with Occupational Health & Safety knowledge
• Timely and appropriate communication and advice
• Low risk service
• Reduction in face to face Physio appointments (cost & time away from work)
• Option for referral to Physiotherapy Partner (assessment only or up to 6 treatments max)
