Occupational Health
Woolton Physiotherapy is committed to working with occupational health and managers to achieve:
- Health in work
- Health at work
- Health for life
Melanie became interested in providing occupational health services following her work at Fords Motor Company where she spent 10 years providing clinical treatment, assessment, advice and health promotion. Her role often involved assessing the ergonomics and risks involved in different working environments within the plant. She recognised the importance of physiotherapy being part of the health team maintaining a healthy workforce. Woolton physiotherapy now has a dynamic team of staff providing physiotherapy services at workplaces across the region. We are at the forefront of integrating physiotherapy as a key role in occupational health.
Woolton Physiotherapy currently hold the contracts to manage the physiotherapy services for:
- Merseyside Police Authority
- Liverpool City Council
- Knowsley Metropolitan Borough Council
We provide professional advice “on site” at Industrial factories and corporate businesses across the region. At present we are involved in a local project to implement a physiotherapy service, identify areas of potential risk and provide the education required to meet the needs of the workforce in a large company.
We provide an excellent, accountable and value for money service.
