Introduction
Physiotherapy is a specialized medical field focused on restoring movement and function in patients recovering from injuries, surgeries, or neurological conditions. It is commonly used to treat musculoskeletal disorders, post-operative rehabilitation, stroke recovery, and chronic pain management.
When a physiotherapist, rehabilitation specialist, or healthcare provider fails to meet the expected standard of care—whether through incorrect treatments, misdiagnosis, or unsafe rehabilitation techniques—patients can suffer severe and long-term consequences. If you or a loved one has been affected by physiotherapy-related medical negligence, Prospect Legal is here to help you seek justice and fair compensation.
What is Medical Negligence in Physiotherapy?
Medical negligence in physiotherapy occurs when a physiotherapist or rehabilitation specialist fails to provide appropriate care, causing harm to the patient. To establish a medical negligence claim, the following elements must be proven:
✅ Duty of Care – The physiotherapist or healthcare provider was responsible for diagnosing and treating the patient’s condition.
✅ Breach of Duty – The provider failed to follow appropriate physiotherapy protocols, acting negligently.
✅ Causation – The patient suffered harm directly due to incorrect treatment or lack of care.
✅ Damages – The patient and their family endured physical, emotional, or financial hardships due to the negligence.
Medical professionals must adhere to best practices in physiotherapy to ensure patient safety and well-being. When they fail in their duty, the consequences can be severe.
