ABBEY
PHYSIO
provides a wide range of
physiotherapy services in our purpose built city centre facility which is
wheel chair accessible and offers free parking. Additionally we provide a
Home Call Physio
Bank service where
we can call to your home and provide treatment.
All physiotherapists retained by ABBEY PHYSIO are members of the
Irish Society of Chartered
Physiotherapists ( ISCP )
and are part of an ongoing training and mentoring program which assures that
our staff are fully trained and compliant at all times.
What does this mean for you, your GP
practice patients or Nursing Home residents?
Physiotherapists
can only use the word Chartered in their titles when they are members of the
ISCP. This body only accepts people with an approved university education
and hospital-based training.
Chartered Physiotherapists have a comprehensive medical
training, which enables them to treat a wide range of problems . They are
trained to diagnose the injury, treat the problem and assist the patient to
achieve optimal function. HSE only recognises MISCP Chartered
Physiotherapists as qualified to treat patients. BEWARE!! At present
there is no law preventing anyone from practising as a “physio”, even if
they have no professionally recognised physiotherapy or physical therapy
training.
