Spinal Rehabilitation

Spinal injuries can result in ongoing and long term pain and disability. Rehabilitation normally includes Physiotherapy, therapy and support in returning to work and study roles.

Herniated Disk Rehabilitation

A herniated disk may mean that you need to take time off work to recover. With a back injury there is also a chance you could need medication, Physiotherapy for spinal symptoms or even surgery in worst case scenarios.

Damaged Pelvis Rehabilitation

Damage to your pelvis as a result of a motor vehicle accident can result in difficulty walking or impairment to your range of movement. In cases like these you may need extensive Physiotherapy or surgery to heal.

Torn or Ruptured ACL Rehabilitation

Depending on the severity of the injury a torn or ruptured ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) can be treated either surgically or non-surgically. Once you have been assessed by your GP, you may need to get further scans done to determine the extent of damage. Once your injuries have been stabilised, Physiotherapy rehabilitation for your knee injury can start.

Dislocation Rehabilitation

If you’ve dislocated a bone, treatment begins with putting the bone back into its socket. Once this is complete your doctor may recommend a sling. From there, Physiotherapy rehabilitation can involve specific exercises and, later on, even weight training to build strength back into the affected limb.

Guide to lodging a CTP Claim

What do you do after a motor vehicle accident and how do you lodge a CTP Claim?

Summary:

Things to know before you start:

Before you apply, get the details of the other vehicle and report the crash to police. While you have 28 days to do this, you should do it as soon as possible. This is an important way of proving that the accident happened.
You can still make a claim if you don’t have all these details yet. Submit the application and the insurer will be in touch about any other information they need.
If you’re unable to make the claim yourself (eg you’re in hospital), family members, friends or other representatives can submit the claim on your behalf.
To receive back pay from the date of the crash, the insurer needs to receive the claim within 28 days. You can still submit a claim up to three months after the crash, but it’s best to submit a claim as soon as possible.

To lodge a CTP claim:

The police event number.
Details of your injuries, medical treatment received and receipts for medical expenses.
Your certificate of fitness or medical certificate from your GP
Proof of earnings, such as pay slips, from before and after the accident.

Step 1: Find out who to claim with

If you need to make a CTP claim, you will first need to know the insurer of the vehicle you believe is most at fault. This may not be determined immediately at the time of the accident. If you don’t know which insurer to lodge with, you can contact your own CTP insurer or you can submit your application to CTP Assist. CTP Assist will automatically send your details to the right insurer, who will then contact you. CTP Assist on 1300 656 919 or email [email protected].

Step 2: How to get income support if you injured and cannot return to work

If you are injured in a motor vehicle accident and as a result you have a loss of earnings, you may be entitled to income support payments. Income support payments compensate you for some of the income you have lost because of your injury. If you’re off work these payments will help pay the bills, so you can focus on getting better.

These payments will be a percentage of your pre-accident earnings:
Pre-accident earnings are an average of the past 12 months of your earnings.

for the first 13 weeks the maximum is 95 per cent
after 14 weeks the maximum is 85 per cent (depending on whether you have total or partial loss of earning capacity)

Most people recover within one year. After one year your income support payments will end if:

you were at fault / most at fault or
your injuries are assessed as ‘threshold’ (previously known as a minor injury)

If you have not reached pre injury levels two years after your accident and continue to experience loss of earnings, you may lodge a claim for damages.

When to lodge your CTP claim

Lodge your claim as soon as possible. To receive lost income from the date of the accident, the insurer needs to receive the claim within 28 days. If the claim is made on the insurer after 28 days, then you will need to give an explanation for your delay to be considered eligible to receive weekly payments of statutory benefits from the day after the date of the accident. Otherwise, weekly payments of statutory benefits may only begin from the date the claim is made. You can still submit a claim up to three months after the crash, but it’s best to submit a claim as soon as possible.

Who can apply for a CTP claim?

Anyone who is injured in a motor vehicle accident in NSW can apply. This includes:

drivers and passengers
motor bike riders
pedestrians
cyclists.

The injury can be physical or psychological.

If the injury is a result of a motor accident that is also a work-related accident, you will also need to make a workers compensation claim against your employer’s workers compensation insurer. See claiming workers compensation for more information.

You cannot claim these benefits if you are charged with a serious driving offence in connection with the accident, or were the at-fault driver of an uninsured vehicle.

Spinal Injuries after a Motor Vehicle Accident

Spinal Injuries after a Motor Vehicle Accident:

Spinal Injuries after a Motor Vehicle Accident are the most common injury sustained after an accident. Some patients experience immediate pain and other can take a few days to week to develop. It is extremely important to see your GP as soon as possible after an accident.

Whiplash injuries under the Motor Accident Guidelines is defined as a “threshold injury”, previously known as a minor injury. Injured persons suffering from threshold injuries are only entitled to weekly benefits for 52 weeks from the date of the accident. It is important to note that the Motor Accident Injuries Act 2017 (NSW) has protections in place to protect injured persons who develop symptoms of spinal radiculopathy even after the 52-week period has elapsed.

CTP Claim Entitlements:

If you were involved in a motor vehicle accident and have a CTP claim, injured persons have the following statutory entitlements:

Payment of weekly wages;
Payment of reasonable and necessary medical and travel expenses; and
Payment of reasonable and necessary domestic assistance.

If an injured person is not wholly at fault for the motor vehicle accident, and they have a above threshold injury (previously known as non minor claim), then further entitlements under common law exist. Those entitlements include:

Damages for pain and suffering (non-economic loss); and
Damages for past and future wage loss (economic loss).

If an injured person was wholly at fault, at the 52 week mark from the date of the accident, the injured person’s CTP claim ends and they will not receive payment of weekly benefits after this point in time.

Radiculopathy after the expiration of the Statutory period

Spinal Injuries after a Motor Vehicle Accident can result in radiculopathy. Radiculopathy is when symptoms develop due to the compression of neural structures. The law accepts that if an injured person develops radiculopathy after the expiration of the Statutory period, then their entitlement to Statutory Benefits and a Common Law Damages claim remain. This means that even after the injured person has been barred from the CTP scheme for any period, if radiculopathy arises, their entitlements are reinstated.

Radiculopathy is defined as: “dysfunction of a spinal nerve root or nerve roots. To conclude that a radiculopathy is present, two or more of the following signs should be found:

loss or asymmetry of reflexes (see the definitions of clinical findings in Table 6.8 in these Guidelines)
positive sciatic nerve root tension signs (see the definitions of clinical findings in Table 6.8 in these Guidelines)
muscle atrophy and/or decreased limb circumference (see the definitions of clinical findings in Table 6.8 in these Guidelines)
muscle weakness that is anatomically localised to an appropriate spinal nerve root distribution
reproducible sensory loss that is anatomically localised to an appropriate spinal nerve root distribution.

If you have been involved in a motor vehicle accident where you suffered injuries to your spine and now believe that your condition is worsening, please do not hesitate to contact us for a private discussion with our experienced team of Physiotherapists in Parramatta.

Rehabilitation after car accident

Why is Rehabilitation after car accident important?

Experiencing a motor vehicle accident can not only be very traumatic but can also result in serious injuries that take years to recover from. Motor vehicle accident injuries often require multiple hospital or doctor’s appointments that take time out of your life. These appointments can be hugely beneficial and necessary in speeding up the recovery process. Part of the rehab process is undergoing regular Physiotherapy. Physiotherapy can help to reduce the risk of long-term damage, aid in pain reduction and in some cases may even help patients avoid the need to have surgery.

Common conditions requiring rehabilitation:

SPINAL REHABILITATION

Spinal injuries can result in short term or permanent disability. Rehabilitation can include Physiotherapy, Occupational therapy (including home assessment and modifications), and support in returning to work and study roles.

HERNIATED DISC REHABILITATION

A herniated disk may mean that you need to take time of work to recover. With a back injury there is also a chance you could need medication, spinal manipulation or even surgery. Physiotherapy is a great place to start to manage your herniated disc after your motor vehicle accident. Your Physiotherapist can provide you with essential knowledge on how to manage your herniated disc.

FRACTURED PELVIS REHABILITATION

TORN / RUPTURED ACL REHABILITATION

Torn ACL is a common injury for accidents involving a car vs motor bike, cycle or pedestrian accidents. Your Physiotherapist will work alongside your GP and Ortho specialists to achieve the best results for your rehabilitation.

PTSD REHABILITATION

It’s characterised by feelings of intense fear or panic and can be treated with therapy or sometimes medication. If you have mental trauma after a car accident you may need therapy to help you to regain control over your life however these costs can add up.

REHABILITATION FOR FRACTURES AND DISLOCATIONS

If you’ve dislocated a bone due to a motor vehicle accident, you will first be treated by your GP or Orthopaedic specialist. Once this is complete your doctor will refer you to start your Physiotherapy program. Rehabilitation can involve specific exercises, stretches and resistance training at a later stage to build strength back into the affected joint.

Physiotherapy Management of Wrist and Hand Injuries

Physiotherapy plays a vital role in the management of wrist and hand injuries, helping to reduce pain, improve mobility, restore function, and promote healing. The specific physiotherapy management will depend on the nature and severity of the injury, but here are some common approaches:

Assessment and Diagnosis: A physiotherapist will assess the injury to determine its extent and identify any associated impairments or limitations. This may involve evaluating range of motion, strength, sensation, and functional abilities of the wrist and hand.
Pain Management: Physiotherapists can employ various techniques to manage pain, such as manual therapy, soft tissue mobilization, electrical modalities (e.g., TENS), or heat and cold therapy.
Range of Motion Exercises: Controlled, gentle exercises may be prescribed to improve or maintain the range of motion of the wrist and hand joints. These exercises help prevent stiffness and maintain flexibility.
Strengthening Exercises: Specific exercises will be prescribed to strengthen the muscles of the hand and wrist. This can include exercises using resistance bands, therapy putty, or specialized equipment to target grip strength, finger dexterity, and overall hand function.
Mobilization and Manual Therapy: Techniques such as joint mobilization or manipulation may be used to improve joint mobility, release adhesions, and restore normal movement patterns.
Hand and Finger Exercises: Physiotherapists may prescribe hand and finger exercises to improve dexterity, coordination, and fine motor skills. These exercises often involve activities like manipulating objects, gripping exercises, or finger tapping exercises.
Splinting: In some cases, a physiotherapist may provide custom or off-the-shelf splints or braces to support and protect the injured wrist or hand. Splinting can help reduce pain, stabilize the joint, and promote healing.
Functional Training: Physiotherapists focus on restoring functional abilities required for daily activities and work tasks. They may incorporate specific activities or simulate work-related tasks to enhance hand and wrist function.
Education and Ergonomic Advice: Physiotherapists provide education on injury management, activity modification, ergonomic principles, and strategies to prevent future injuries. They may provide guidance on proper posture, workstation setup, and techniques to protect the wrist and hand during daily activities.
Home Exercise Program: Physiotherapists design personalized home exercise programs to ensure continuity of care and ongoing rehabilitation. Patients are provided with instructions on performing exercises at home and self-management strategies to support recovery.

It’s important to consult with a qualified physiotherapist who can assess your specific wrist and hand injury, provide an accurate diagnosis, and develop an individualized treatment plan. They will monitor your progress, make adjustments as necessary, and guide you through the rehabilitation process.

Post Accident Physiotherapy

Post-accident physiotherapy, also known as post-accident rehabilitation, focuses on helping individuals recover from injuries sustained in a car accident or any other traumatic event. Physiotherapy plays a crucial role in restoring function, reducing pain, and improving mobility after an accident. Here are some key aspects of post-accident physiotherapy:

Initial assessment: A physiotherapist will conduct an initial assessment to evaluate your condition, identify specific injuries, assess range of motion, muscle strength, and identify any functional limitations resulting from the accident.
Pain management: If you’re experiencing pain after the accident, the physiotherapist may use various techniques such as manual therapy, soft tissue mobilization, or modalities like heat, ice, or electrical stimulation to help alleviate pain and reduce inflammation.
Exercise therapy: Physiotherapy often involves therapeutic exercises tailored to your specific needs. These exercises aim to improve strength, flexibility, range of motion, and functional abilities. The physiotherapist will guide you through exercises targeting specific body areas affected by the accident.
Manual therapy: This includes hands-on techniques performed by the physiotherapist to mobilize stiff joints, manipulate soft tissues, and improve circulation. Manual therapy techniques can help reduce pain, improve flexibility, and restore normal movement patterns.
Rehabilitation and functional training: Depending on the nature of your injuries, the physiotherapist may provide rehabilitation programs that focus on specific activities or movements related to your daily life or work. This could include balance training, gait retraining, or exercises to improve functional abilities.
Education and self-management: Physiotherapists can educate you about your injuries, provide guidance on proper posture, body mechanics, and ergonomics to prevent further injuries. They can also offer advice on managing pain, implementing home exercises, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
Progress tracking: Physiotherapists monitor your progress throughout the rehabilitation process, adjusting treatment plans as needed to ensure the best possible outcome. They may use functional assessments, range of motion measurements, and other outcome measures to track your recovery.

Remember that post-accident physiotherapy is highly individualized, and the specific treatments and techniques used will depend on your unique circumstances and injuries. It’s important to consult with a qualified physiotherapist who can assess your condition and develop a personalized treatment plan to aid your recovery.

Car crash injury rehabilitation

Car crash injury rehabilitation is a comprehensive process that aims to help individuals recover from injuries sustained in a car accident. It typically involves a multidisciplinary approach and will include medical professionals, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, and other healthcare providers. Here are some key aspects of car crash injury rehabilitation:

Medical evaluation and treatment: After a car accident, it is essential to seek medical evaluation to identify and address any immediate or underlying injuries. This may involve X-rays, MRI scans, or other diagnostic tests to assess the extent of the injuries. Medical treatment may include medication, surgeries, or other interventions depending on the specific injuries sustained.
Physiotherapy and rehabilitation exercises: Physiotherapy plays a crucial role in car crash injury rehabilitation. A physiotherapist will assess your condition, develop a personalized treatment plan, and guide you through exercises aimed at improving strength, flexibility, range of motion, and functional abilities. They may also use modalities like heat, ice, or electrical stimulation to manage pain and promote healing.
Occupational therapy: Occupational therapists focus on helping individuals regain their ability to perform daily activities and return to work after a car accident. They may work on improving fine motor skills, cognitive abilities, and developing strategies to overcome any physical or cognitive limitations caused by the injuries.
Pain management: Car crash injuries often result in acute or chronic pain. Pain management techniques may include medication, physical therapy modalities, manual therapy, or referral to pain management specialists. The goal is to reduce pain levels and improve overall comfort during the rehabilitation process.
Psychological support: Car accidents can have a significant psychological impact on individuals. Rehabilitation may include counseling or therapy to address any emotional trauma, anxiety, or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) resulting from the accident. Psychologists or mental health professionals can provide support and help individuals cope with the psychological effects of the crash.
Assistive devices and adaptive equipment: In some cases, individuals may require assistive devices or adaptive equipment to aid their recovery and regain independence. This could include mobility aids like crutches or walkers, splints or braces for joint support, or modifications to the home or workplace environment to accommodate any physical limitations.
Gradual return to activities: Rehabilitation focuses on gradually reintegrating individuals into their normal activities. This may involve a step-by-step approach, starting with basic activities of daily living and gradually progressing to more demanding tasks, including work or sports activities.

It’s important to note that car crash injury rehabilitation is highly individualized. The specific rehabilitation plan will depend on the nature and severity of the injuries, as well as the individual’s overall health and goals. Working closely with healthcare professionals who specialize in car crash rehabilitation can help ensure a comprehensive and effective recovery process.
