Our Ascenti Physio app supports users throughout their journey to recovery by providing 24/7 access to expert advice through digital triage, virtual consultations and tailored exercise programmes from approved Ascenti clinicians.
Users will be able to book appointments directly through the app and they will be able carry out exercises in the comfort of their own home, with access to guided videos that can be downloaded and viewed at any time.
The app will benefit patients by allowing them to track their own progress and compliance with their rehabilitation programme, improve their knowledge and empowerment through education and self-management advice, and increase their confidence knowing they are following the correct exercise prescription.
The Ascenti Physio app is fully integrated with our bespoke patient workflow system. This means that Physiotherapists can prescribe video exercises, track patient progress and adjust according to real time patient feedback all within the same system that supports them in all other aspects of their daily role (from writing treatment notes to accessing clinical dairies). For patients this means a digitally enhanced and seamless journey, whether their treatment is face-to-face or virtual. This is not just an app, but a fully integrated digital care solution.
A beta test version of the app launched earlier this year and has already been used by 1,400 patients, with 93% of users endorsing the app and saying that they would recommend it to friends and family.
The Ascenti Physio app is available to all Ascenti patients and will be accessible as soon as they book their first physio appointment. The app will be available to download from the App Store for Apple iOS users and the Play Store for android devices. There will also be a web-based service that people can use at physio.ascenti.co.uk.
