This course will examine osteoarthritis, the signs and symptoms of the osteoarthritic knee and the degenerate meniscus, as well as discussing the long term effects of ACL reconstruction.

It will look at intervention strategies that the physiotherapist can use and will demonstrate the effectiveness of these strategies from evidence in the literature. It will provide simple strategies for patient self-management to help improve function and quality of life for the older knee, minimise painful recurrences and avoid surgery where possible.

This course offers both theory and practical components, exploring recent studies in order to give a greater insight into treating the older knee. Participants will also gain pain management strategies for post knee arthroplasties to assist rehabilitation.

This half-day practical course extends beyond the basic knowledge covered in the OHPA Level 1 course.

The course is a 50/50 mix of discussion and practical work and covers:
- Practical skills in preparing for and conducting Office ergonomic assessments
- The risks involved in sedentary work and how best to manage that risk at an individual and organisational level
- Report writing skills
- How to use our Physiotherapy knowledge to get an edge in this competitive field
