Interesting discussion

Second day at the hospital, the staff and the physios are very interesed about the Swedish helth care system and how the physiotherapists work. One thing that I found very intresting yesterday was that they have rehabilitation doctors and all patients first meet the doctor that after the doctor tells the physiotherapists what kind of treatment he thinks the patient should be given. But what I started wondering about was, Vinmec has all the equitment you can need when it comes to the electro therapy area but they use it so much, I have learned to set up a treatment plan consisting of one maybe two main methods and then give them time to be tested out and see if it works. Cause if you go on with 5-6 methods then how can you know what is working and whats not working and maybe the patients injury can't handle so many methods at once. And what about the home excersises? Here in Vietnam there are no health centers only hospital that are private or public so if someone needs a physiotherapis they go to the hospital to meet the physiotherapist. But they don't give out excersises to go home with. 
The funny thing is that i discussed this with one of the physiotherapists in the department and he agreed with me, he has been working for many years and was wondering a lot about how we work in Sweden so we had a long conversation about different areas and what I would do with that patient and what he would do and just shooting ideas back and forth. It was really fun.
