After 14 years of working in a variety of public and private practice settings, Justin founded Chipperfield Mobile Physiotherapy in 2013 with the vision to be the most accessible and holistic mobile rehabilitation company in Canada. 

Chipperfield Physiotherapy accomplishes this by:

ASKED
QUESTIONS

 
 
 

Why should I book a mobile practitioner?

We’re HUGE fans of mobile rehab (obviously!) and we believe it’s the easiest way for clients to get accessible and convenient care in the comfort of their home. We built this company for those who are unable to get to a clinic either due to their injury, schedule, or location.

 

In addition to the above, mobile rehab has some other great perks:

 

•   No travel time to clinic (think of all the time you’ll save and the money saved on gas!)

•   Inclement weather = no problem! We’ll brave the storms for you :)

•   No parking fees or wasted time trying to FIND parking

•   No waiting rooms (big bonus in this current Covid era!)

•   Personalized, one to one treatment with your therapist (who isn’t distracted by other clients).

•   Your therapist is able to evaluate your environment and tailor a program to suit your unique needs

•   We bring the equipment directly to you

•   We can see you wherever you want, including your home, care home, gym, pool, workplace, or local park!

 

Lastly, our multi-disciplinary approach to rehab cannot be overstated. Bottom line, our ability to bring a wide-range of rehab services and healing modalities directly to you separates us from everyone else. We know mobile rehab is the way of the future - let us prove it to you.

What should I expect for my first session?

Once we have arranged an appointment, our front desk team will send you a short intake form to complete before your appointment. This allows our practitioners to gain some insight into your condition, medical history, and goals for the session.

 

Your practitioner will greet you at your chosen location and will be wearing a medical-grade mask (we recommend you do as well). You’ll spend some time discussing your injury and medical history before our practitioner completes a thorough assessment. It’s best if you wear comfortable clothes and clear a 5 foot x 5 foot area for our practitioners (although we’re pretty adaptable if that isn’t possible!).

 

After your assessment, your practitioner will review their assessment findings and recommend a treatment plan that it tailored to suit your needs.  They will ensure you have a clear idea of your rehab journey, and will also recommend any additional rehab services they think would be beneficial for your recovery. 

 

That’s it! You’re on the road to recovery!

What are your Covid Safety Protocols?

We are committed to following all Provincial and WSBC Guidelines. Here’s the list of things we are doing to protect your health and our staff:

 

SCREENING: Each patient and staff must successfully complete a digital screening questionnaire before the appointment is confirmed.

PHYSICAL DISTANCING: To eliminate crowding and reduce surface touch-points, our practitioners will call/text you when they are outside your home. We will ask you to open the door for us, so that we can avoid touching surfaces. If you are not able to come to the door, we will be able to open it with our own disinfectant wipes. Payment via credit card is preferred, however we will still be accepting cash and cheques.

DISINFECTION & SANITIZATION: We have implemented high-frequency cleaning protocols with AHS approved cleaning products. Frequency is above standard and followed the BC CDC Community Guidelines.

MASKS: All practitioners will be wearing medical-grade masks at all times while in your home. We recommend that clients also wear their own homemade or medical mask. If you do not have a mask, we can provide you with one.

HAND HYGIENE: Our practitioners will sanitize their hands in front of you at the appointment. We are also asking clients to wash their hands upon our arrival. We will use sanitizer before we exit and throughout the appointment as needed.

COMPANIONS: Unless a client requires a caregiver or is a guardian to a child under the age of 18 years old, we ask that patients attend their appointments alone. Please kindly ask your family members to give you space during your appointments with us.
