Provide referrals to the Primary Physiotherapist for access to specialized interventions, electrotherapy modalities, advanced rehabilitation equipment, and treatment services that are not available onsite. Attend collaborative rehabilitation case conferences alongside Occupational Health Physicians, Physiotherapy staff, and the FQM Fitness & Rehabilitation Coordinator. Maintain consistent and prompt updates on treatment progress, functional outcomes, rehabilitation goals, and return-to-work recommendations.
