As a Physio First member you could be part of our unique Data for Impact programme.
This involves monitoring patient outcomes and promoting physiotherapy, and it could help further your career.
Data for Impact is our online, standardised, data collection tool created by us in collaboration with the University of Brighton. You can use it to input and analyse data on your practice, patients, treatments and outcomes. Taking part in Data for Impact is the first step to becoming a Quality Assured Practitioner (QAP) or Quality Assured Clinic (QAC) status.
With our innovative data collection tool – developed by Physio First in collaboration with the University of Brighton – you can record and upload anonymous patient treatment and outcomes that enable us to produce regular reports specific to you and your clinic.
Whether you’re a private physiotherapist working alone, or part of a large practice, Data for Impact is an invaluable business tool for benchmarking your clinical skills.
Through our tailor-made data collection project, together we can collect, record and view anonymised patient data that will be turned into valuable information on the outcomes of patient treatments.
The data collection tool, funded by the Private Physiotherapy Educational Foundation, has been developed in collaboration with the University of Brighton which now administers it.
To access this resource you can input your own anonymous patient information by using our short form online data collection tool.
Thanks to the participation of our members, Data for Impact is building up a wealth of ongoing patient data that we are analysing and collating into a national interim report. This is available to Physio First members every four months.
As a participating member you can use this growing bank of patient data to establish treatment outcomes and patient trends.
We will send individual reports to participants who collect over 50 complete datasets and these can be used to support your Continued Professional Development training, or to apply for our new Quality Assured Practitioner kite mark.
