@thecsp 😞

CSP Council is capping the increase to 2023 member subscriptions at five per cent. The below-inflation change aims to reduce the impact on members' already stretched finances, while keeping the society financially sustainable. csp.org.uk/news/2022-10-0…

Unacceptable proposal from the #HCPC to increase fees by 20%. This figure is way above inflation and will affect members significantly. csp.org.uk/news/2022-09-2…)

@CWrightPhysio The face drop I get when I tell them I can not do it...

I’ve come to realise that the hardest thing to do in physio is take on someone’s acupuncture-laden caseload when you do not do acupuncture yourself. 📌😨📌😨📌😨📌

@adamdobson123 😂 and that’s why I’m stuck with a little old Yaris

@TheSimplePhysio That hummer needs paying for 😬

Patient today told me he has been phoned frequently from the chiropractic clinic he’s had appointments with urging him to come back in order to prevent his condition worsening. This is fear-mongering, unethical and should never be allowed

@adamdobson123 Yup, god knows where he would be without them...other than a lot better off health wise and financially

@TheSimplePhysio Top ups 😁, maintenance 😬. All the faves. Shocking in all seriousness
