Musculoskeletal Self-Screen: Getting and Keeping the Ideal Patient

Course overview

Imagine if patients knew when to come into the clinic before experiencing pain or an injury. Could you imagine seeing more patients for wellness instead of just chronic pain and post-op care? What if your patients were directed to you right away at the first onset of pain, rather than waiting months? What if you had something meaningful to give patients at health fairs and community talks that actually directed the type of patients you want into your care? Modifiable musculoskeletal risk factors have been identified in recent research studies, yet musculoskeletal health continues to rise as the number one expense for health insurance companies. It doesn't have to be this way. Musculoskeletal health care should not only be reactive to pain, but can also be proactive against it. The solution lies in empowering our patients to appreciate their own movement health and movement dysfunction. A self-movement screen that can be used by health care professionals and their patients answers this need. This program covers the background, research, and implementation strategies associated with this self-movement screen-MovePrint. This course is for the musculoskeletal health practitioner who desires to empower patients to understand movement dysfunctions so that they seek health care professionals to help them optimize their musculoskeletal health.
