Physiotherapy jobs in space

Physiotherapy jobs in space.


What does all this mean in terms of opportunities for physios?

If private space ventures such as Virgin Galactic become popular, says Huw, there may be potential for physiotherapists to be involved in the preparation and treatment of space tourists.

The first hundred passengers scheduled to fly range from 18 to 88 years of age. Those who are less active or fit may well benefit from pre- or post-flight physiotherapy.

‘Virgin Galactic flights are only going to be in microgravity for three minutes, so people won’t experience any physiological challenges,’ says Huw. However, they will feel the weight effects of acceleration, or G-force.

‘There are huge G-forces on the way up and way down,’ he says. ‘Up to 4G on the way up and 5G on the way down – and for a normal person, that’s a lot of pressure on the body.’

Agencies such as ESA may require more physiotherapists as space travel advances, says Dr Damann.

‘The missions will become longer and we will hopefully explore the moon, Mars and beyond,’ he says.

‘There are also plans to build hotels in space, which we may see in a couple of years. As you’d expect at any good four- or five-star hotel, physiotherapists may be present. If that industry really kicks off, there may be lots of opportunities.’

In the meantime, space research may provide valuable insights that can be used to treat various conditions and applied to the care of older and bedridden people.

Additionally, the dramatic changes that occur in space serve as a radical reminder of how essential exercise and regular activity are for the body.

‘Our biology is built in such way that if we use something it increases,’ says Dr Damann. ‘And equally if we don’t use something it decreases.’

Huw Scott agrees and points out that, although space is an extreme environment, it demonstrates how rapidly the body can adapt in response to our lifestyles. 

‘So many of us sit at desks for eight hours a day,’ says Huw. ‘And then we wonder why people get bad backs and muscle imbalances.’ fl

Case study:
Dr.Amol Pampatwar 2011 batch Gmch Aurangabad ms Obgy died due to massive ami today at 9.20 am while travelling from miraj to Kolhapur .
He was very soft spoken person n.married a year ago .
Pm showed lad infarct with multiple plaques in coronaries.neglected chest pain for two days....
May his soul rest in peace..... Recently we are hearing news about many young doctors facing morbidity/mortality due to life style diseases like MI etc.
Here are views, though from very short experience:

Doctors are the one who neglect health and healthy lifestyle the most.
Few things that I found helpful are:
1. Practice is a continuous process... You are there in hospital for patients and not vice a versa. So dont get bothered much by fluctuations in practice.

2. Patients need you more than, you need them..
So set your limits. Stop OPD on time. Avoid patients who want to take ur leasure time (few patients feel pride in visiting u on sundays or off ur opd time).

3. 'Put your eggs in different baskets' is a good saying, but dont put them in too many baskets that you are worried about missing few. So dont keep so many attachments to hospitals.  Every new attachment demands time plus travel. Stressing us further.

4. Most important, Set your own targets ..  not the targets that ur colleague/competator has set. He may be  earning much more .. but he might be paying the cost in some other ways (family.. hobbies.. friends etc).

5. When in doubt about health  dont be your own doctor.

6. Give time to family and friends, in hour of trouble they are the one who will be with you in hospital and not ur bosses or professional colleagues. ..

7. "Happiness lies in satisfaction". If we are not satisfied, we will not be happy even if we earn highest in world.
8. Best time to be happy is now, best moment to be happy is present moment. Learn to enjoy the whole  journey, dont wait to be happy till u reach the destination!!

How to make your clinic brand famous



How to make your clinic brand famous in your area

 "What is seen is sold". Always make this thing clear in mind. People are in rat race for brands. Now a day average quality products can beat the best product on the bases of product management strategies.
Your clinic your brand


We are leaving in an advertisements driven world. Our commercial activities are largely influenced by advertisements. Advertisements lead to branding of their product.
Even if you are doing best in the industry still you need advertisements to make your clinic in race. Continuously Visibility in public is very important. If you want to established your clinic and want to become famous in your area you have to take necessary steps.
Do not let any stone unturned to make your clinic visible. To make your clinic visible and famous follow these simple steps: 

Presentable reception: 

Most of the clinicians do not take their reception area very seriously. Reception is the face of your clinic; it is the first impression of your clinic. Always remember that first impression is the last impression.  Hire a smart, intelligent and presentable receptionist.
Your reception area should be neat and clean. It should be well illuminated and comfortable for patient as it is also serving as waiting room for your clients. Digital display and TV can be placed in your reception area. You can play advertisements and recordings of your domain speciality.

Doctors: 

Doctor plays a role in clinic what heart play in body. Doctor should be knowledgeable and expert in his domain. Doctor should present himself confident enough to assure the patients who are suffering that they will cure at this facility. Presentable doctor make difference most of the doctor take care of this thing but still number of physicians and therapists don’t take this seriously.
Personal hygiene of doctors matter a lot. Proper grooming of hair nails and body odour should take in to account. In the word of consumerism service provider always remains the item of criticisms so doctor should be most careful.
Most of ethical standards says that doctor should not use any body scents or perfumes but I am not completely agree with this, a light deodorant or perfumes should be allowed to doctors also.

Doctor’s chamber:
it is also an important thing in a clinic. It should be well decorated illuminated and comfortable.
 Bookshelves always make an impression that doctor is a dignity and to sit on doctor chair he worked hard and read lot of books attained all knowledge to treat the patient. Always install your degree framed near to the book shelf. Bookshelves should be clean giving impression that they are in use by doctor to update her shelf.

Sign board of your clinic: 
Always take help of a professional to design your signboards and logos for your clinic. Signboards should clearly display your name, degrees and speciality. It should not be very fancy but also not a simple one.

Prescription pads bills and stickers:


all of these should have necessarily display your logo. These can also make with the help of a printing professional. e.g of a logo

Advertisements through a cable network of your area: 
Digital displays always make an impact on your branding. When people see your advertisements in TV with your details they come to know about you and your clinic. They will know about the facilities in your clinic, in their area. This will make your clinic famous. Adding to this you can also run your add campaigns in local theaters also, if your budget allows.

Internet impression: 
register your presence in the world of internet. Your clinic should have a website. This website clearly display about your clinic and services provided. Online appointments software can be embedded in the website.

Cheap and best websites hosting services are available now a day.
Free website can also be made by taking a small effort on platform like yolasite e.g.  www.scmphysiotherapyclinic.yolasite.com and www.medicobola.yolasite.com

Blogging: 
make a blog of your clinic and doctor working in clinic; their views and opinions can be displayed like e.g. http://physiotherapyanobleprofession.blogspot.in and http://physiotherapyearnings.blogspot.in
Register your clinics in social platforms like twitter, Facebook, reedit and goggle plus etc.
Advertisements in job portals, if there is requirements of a staff will also add to it.

Advertise in local newspaper: 
Newspaper are the perfect medium, they have close reach to the community. Advertisement in local newspaper can help you a lot in order to make your clinic famous.

Bills and stickers in your community: 
hand bills stickers with logo should regularly be circulated through newspapers in your localities.
All program and celebrations with offers to patients should be circulated with bills in newspaper of locality.
Special discounts and offer to local area patient at regular intervals are also a good idea to increase the foot fall.
So start following these simple steps to make your clinic more visible in your localities.
Wishing you a very happy and prosperous new year!
