MY KIND OF TREATMENT FORM 4

TELL US ABOUT YOUR EXPECTATIONS

A large part of the patient's experience when in treatment, it being +ve or not so +ve, is selective to the patient's personality, personal likes, lifestyle & goals.

A positive, cooperative & compliant treatment is therefore an important marker to improve pain treatment outcomes.

DID
YOU KNOW?

So for obvious reasons, it becomes important for a therapist to understand YOU.

And by YOU we mean your limits, expectations & availability when it comes to treatment plans.

So go ahead, tell us about what you like, how you like it & how much of it you want when it comes to treatments, plans of management & levels of rehabilitation

7Q's

The ALL ABOUT ME Questionnaire

How experienced are you with physical therapy treatments?

Heck I've been going to chiros & physios all my life!

I've had therapy over the years on & off

I only go for a few visits when I get pain then stop

This is my first time

How much time do you have for therapy

I don't have a lot of time - just enough for a quick & effective in-clinic therapy session

I've got all the time in the world for therapy in the clinic

Time is money...when I show up for a visit I want to be seen right away and get out as soon as possible

When it comes to home exercises...

I'm pretty good about doing them at home

Although I'd like to I usually don't follow through with home stuff

I need help with motivation to do anything outside the clinic

How high does your pain need to be before you give-in and seek therapy?

I'm a bit of a wimp when it comes to pain so the slightest discomfort and I'm on the phone seeking pain relief

I always wait a little bit, taking over the counter medicine to help control the pain

I'm stubborn and wait until the pain is very bad before giving in to treatment

How much time to you spend resourcing info online to seek ways of getting pain relief?

I always use google to seek answers to what could be the cause of my pain and how I can make it better

I rely heavily on my doctor and therapist to give me answers and pain relief.

Regarding the cost for therapy...

When it comes to my pain, I spare no expense to make things right

Money unfortunately has been a factor when making decisions about my health care like getting therapy

HERE YOU GO...THIS IS
ME
IN A NUTSHELL!
