Determining What Physiotherapy Supplies You Need

Physiotherapy covers a wide range of services and often physiotherapists will choose to specialize in a specific field of treatment. It’s important that you understand what your primary objective is within your clinic and stock your supplies accordingly. To find out what supplies you may need for your practice, we suggest you ask yourself the following questions:

What Core Services Are Or Will Your Practice Be Offering?

Take a look at the types of clients you will be assisting inside of your clinic. Some of the most common types of physiotherapy practices are sports therapy, pediatric, orthopaedic, geriatric, women’s health and more. Depending on your clientele and their most common treatments, you may need to stock a certain supply.

What Types of Injuries You Are Treating?

Depending on your clientele there is often a specific area of injury that is most common. Will your physiotherapy practice be handling only specific areas of injury or will you be dealing with a more broad spectrum of injuries and other treatments? There are many physiotherapy and medical supplies that are specifically designed for certain parts of the body that you may or may not need.

Does Your Practice Provide In Person or Virtual Healthcare?

Virtual healthcare (such as Telehealth) is becoming increasingly popular among medical practices of all types. If you’re providing these services it’s important you have the technology and software infrastructure to effectively and safely provide these services. However, if you’re providing in-person services there are additional supplies for the practice you should consider stocking. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) such as gloves, face shields, masks and more are vital supplies to have in your office.

Telehealth allows patients to use digital and other modern communication technologies (such as tablet computers and mobile phones, for example) to receive health care treatment and advice remotely. It also allows healthcare providers to consult with other virtually in order to provide better care to their patients.

If you plan to Increase your reliance on services like Telehealth, this will have significant implications for the supplies you will need to efficiently run your clinic. You will for example have less need of PPE supples and treatment tables and will instead need to invest more in electronic technologies such as an electronic patient portal and health record systems.

In addition to this, you will also need to recruit and retain staff who are familiar with these systems and able to keep them running at all times.

Is Your Practice Multi-Disciplinary?

Many practices tend to offer additional therapies including massage therapy, chiropractic services and others. If your clinic offers more than one therapy, it’s important you have the medical supplies needed for each field of practice. Luckily, many of the medical products you need for your office will overlap naturally.
