First Contact Physiotherapy (FCP) services allow people with Musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions to access specialist MSK expertise at the beginning of the pathway. This ensures early diagnosis, optimised management, and timely onward referrals when indicated.
Connect Health is passionate about improving the lives for patients living with MSK and mental health conditions.
With a firm focus on delivering the right care, in the right place, at the right time, Connect Health is determined to raise the quality and efficiency of MSK, mental health and pain community service provision across whole systems.
Our innovative model of care and infrastructure minimises waste, using performance data to achieve 30% service efficiency across our newly mobilised contracts, reducing NHS patients’ average waiting times from 10-12 weeks to just 2-4 days for first contact with a physiotherapist, enabling better outcomes and relieving increasing pressures on primary and secondary care.
