Thank you for hosting this incredibly important lecture. Although I work in private health care in MSK this is such an important conversation. I think it is so important to get people to take responsibility for their own health in the widest context because as Adam said, the patient, is not a cardiovascular or a mental health or a MSK problem but a Client with all these needs. It is so rewarding not when I 'fix' someone but rather with my encouragement, when I see that patient at the Supermarket, and I find out that they have joined a drumming group or bell ringing group etc. Surely this has to be the way forward.
Hi, I absolutely agree mainstream MSK dysfunction should be addressed in a community based setting however, I have concern regarding litigation and the triage of individuals who have primary Ca which could have a secondary spread? Via a robust triage process these individuals are prioritised however my concern is if you make this model mainstream patients with joint/muskuloskeletal pain and a prior history of Ca could be at risk! this could be considered a litigious? but I assume you have measures in place to mitigate this! In York we currently have a 52 week wait for mainstream MSK patients so, your model would work well but my concern remains with those individuals who are an exception to the rule! Kind regards Lucy Meyers
