It’s much less of a whirlwind experience now. All the important information is gathered before they arrive. Instead of rushing through history-taking, we’re actually left with time at the end to focus on what’s truly meaningful in the consultation, they got to ask more questions, which I thought was really good and that person then signed up for a 10 session physio and strength training package.Â
So doing a quick 5 min prep for the patient is a great help it ensures I know which areaâs to probe deeper for additional insights and speeds up whole assessment process.
Having the pre-assessment filled out gives me a detailed overview and idea compared to if it’s blind; it’s gonna take me longer.
Overall there isn’t the stress, and I can go into the assessment confident.
It’s definitely a better way to do the initial assessment, as overall there isn’t the stress, and I can go into the assessment confident.
The clinical reasoning with the rationale where it explains the reasoning behind its advice is really useful.
It’s teaching and reminding me… especially the ones I haven’t come across before.
The subjective now takes me less than five minutes which is good.
It saves me approximately 20 minutes on average per patient. I can then spend treating on massage or whateverâs needed.
I’ve got an idea of what it could be. And then I go and look at it and think, oh, okay, maybe it’s that too or I need to ask those questions for additional information.
I’ve definitely noticed a big difference between having a completed pre-assessment and not having one… It’s taking me longer to do everything to less detail and accuracy.
The actual questions that it asks you to ask are good, so I will ask them and theyâre helpful to clarify things.
It’s gives me more awareness of what’s worth asking to patient when I see them.
It’s helping me… I always go and look before and after the session to refine my reasoning and itâs really useful to discuss the fiend points my coleagues an din case reviews.
Patients just want treatment ASAP; the less delay in providing treatment the better for gaining confidence and trust, so gotriage is critical in helping me provide lots of treatment in that first session and get buy-in to my treatment plan, ensuring they come back for more and enable me to help them achieve their aims & goals.
With the gotriage pre-assessment I’ve now got time for a lot more treatment in the session.
It saves me time in the objective. I always say that when filling it will save their time… The subjective now takes me less than five minutes which is good.
It saves me approximately 20 minutes on average per patient. I can then spend treating.
It helps me before the initial appointment… making more sense of the patient’s presentation and possible difficult diagnosis.
It’s nice… sometimes I’ve got an idea of what it could be. And then I go and look at it and think, oh, okay.
