Frequently asked questions
-
By feeling listened to and getting clear, professional advice and guidance, your employees can immediately begin to take proactive steps to manage the injury.
With musculoskeletal injuries such as back pain, early guidance from a physiotherapist will reduce the length and severity of the symptoms.
For this reason, our services enable you to offer rapid access to specialist care at an affordable price. The employee will get a full assessment, followed up with professional information, advice & guidance on their injury, and a bespoke exercise rehabilitation programme.
If their injury requires further intervention, for example a follow-up appointment or onward referral for face to face treatment, scans and GP referrals, we will make these specific recommendations in the employer report.

Yes, an employee has the right to refuse a referral to occupational health services.
It’s important for employers to ensure that the employee is fully informed about the benefits of the service and that their consent is obtained before proceeding with any referrals.
-
Absolutely. Consent is a fundamental part of any medical or health-related intervention.
The employee must be informed about the referral process and what it entails, and their consent must be obtained before proceeding.
-
It is advisable not to delay a referral to occupational health physiotherapy.
Early intervention can significantly improve recovery times and outcomes for musculoskeletal issues.
If an employee is experiencing pain or discomfort that impacts their work, a referral should be considered promptly.
-
No, it is not necessary for an employee to see their General Practitioner (GP) before being referred to occupational health physiotherapy.
Our service is designed to provide rapid access to musculoskeletal expertise, which can complement or precede treatment from a GP.
-
Yes, even if an employee has been given a fit note by their GP, you can still refer them to occupational health physiotherapy.
Our services can provide additional support and treatment that may aid in their recovery or adjustment back into work.
-
Remote consultations allow for timely access to physiotherapy expertise without the need for travel, making it more convenient for employees.
During these consultations, a physiotherapist can assess the employee’s condition, provide advice on pain management, recommend exercises, and plan a return-to-work strategy, all of which can be highly effective in aiding recovery.
-
Waiting for an MRI scan before referring an employee is typically not necessary.
Early intervention by a musculoskeletal occupational health specialist will begin with a clinical assessment and the initiation of treatment management plans.
If further diagnostic information is needed, such as an MRI, we will discuss this.
