Quick Reference Cards (UK) for physiotherapists
The Quick Reference Cards (UK) provide standardised
guidance for physiotherapists working with people with
Parkinson's.
The cards directly support clinical practice at any stage of
Parkinson's in the clinic, on the ward or in the community.
We've developed the cards with AGILE (Chartered Physiotherapists
working with Older People) and ACPIN (Association of Chartered
Physiotherapists Interested in Neurology).
The guidance is based on that developed by the Royal
Dutch Society for Physical Therapy in 2004.
