Clinical Reasoning after Assessment[edit | edit source]
The physiotherapy assessment is the most critical parts of a therapist's interaction with their patient. Assessment and reassessment occurs every session to develop a detailed clinical picture to guide the creation of a treatment plan of care. Every patient's clinical picture is unique, therefore comprehensive and ongoing assessment will ensure that the patient receives effective and efficient physiotherapy management.
