The Rapid Access Spine Triage Program at the Brenda and David McLean Integrated Spine Clinic is a new service for patients with non-emergent spinal complaints. Working with medical practitioners and spine surgeons, senior advanced practice physiotherapists with spine-specific advanced training conduct clinical assessments and triage patients who need to see a surgeon. Referring physicians receive a detailed report, and patients requiring a surgical consultation are booked on an expedited basis. To refer a patient, use the referral form found at: www.vch.ca/Documents/Blusson-Spine-Centre-Referral-Form.pdf [10].
