Physical Therapy Involves the Rehabilitation

Physical therapy involves the rehabilitation of injured and disabled persons. Physical therapists and facilities are subject to many of the same risks as any other health care facility, Managing these risks and avoiding liability from them is a key factor to the success of the facility. This report discusses many of the general concerns regarding risk at the Get Well Group, a new facility that provides both physical and occupational therapy to individuals that are injured or in need of other rehabilitation services. It will serve as the basis for the development of policies that are more specific and procedures to help the new facility manage risk.
