Many things affect our health and wellbeing. Clinicians often see patients who are feeling isolated, lonely or stressed by things such as work, money and housing problems. Sometimes people need a little help in dealing with the things life throws at them and often they don’t know where to turn for help and support.
That’s where social prescribing comes in. If you feel you could benefit from support from one of our social prescribers, please self-refer by completing the form via the link below.
The role of First Contact Physiotherapists (FCPs) in Primary Care is to assess patients with soft tissue, muscle and joint pain and to decide on the most appropriate management pathway. FCPs are physiotherapists with expertise in the assessment and management of Musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions. They may also be known as Advanced Practice Physiotherapists (APP) or MSK Practitioners.
If you are unsure where to direct a patient, please discuss with your FCP and they will be happy to advise you.
