Physical therapists in Norway are celebrating news that
people in Norway will soon have direct access to physiotherapists without
referral, following government proposals to improve public health and speed
access to health professionals.
The Norwegian Physiotherapist Association has argued for the
change for many years. “For physiotherapists in Norway this is a historic
moment,” said the association’s President Fred Hatlebrekke. “Finally, we have
obtained full recognition for our expertise in assessing patients holistically
and independently.”
The change was officially announced on 7th May, as the
Minister of Health and Social Services set out changes to health and care
services. He also proposed a change to current laws so that all municipalities
in Norway will be obliged to offer physiotherapy services.
“This is wonderful news,” said Brenda Myers, WCPT Secretary
General.
“Congratulations to the profession in Norway for reaching
this milestone in the development of the profession and for gaining recognition
by policy makers of the important role physical therapists play in the health
of populations.”
