Füsioteraapia
PCN Physiotherapy services are for patients with mild to moderate mobility or physical conditions.
This service is for those with mild to moderate mobility or physical conditions who have been identified as needing services and do not have access to physiotherapy through other means, including services that are subsidized. Referrals are made by Primary Care Providers.
Given the criteria of the program we expect our patient demographics to be shifted towards seniors and low income patients with chronic disease or pain. For services, we expect more emphasis on assessments and mobility consults, and exercise programs (rather than technology based interventions/techniques).
Meie liitlasvaldkonna tervishoiutöötajad saavad pakkuda teenuseid mitmes keeles ja neil on juurdepääs tõlketeenustele enam kui 150 keeles.
Abikõlblikkus
- Patsient on kinnitatud Burnaby perearsti või meditsiiniõe juurde.
- Patsient on 19-aastane või vanem
- Patient cannot access service through other means (e.g. private pay, extended health benefits, Home Health, WCB, ICBC)
Palun rääkige oma Burnabys asuva esmatasandi tervishoiuteenuse osutajaga, et teada saada, kas teil on õigus seda teenust kasutada.
