Post-Polio Clinics

The physicians and hospitals listed have a special interest in post-polio problems. Post-
Polio Health International (PHI) surveyed the post-polio clinics to provide more information
about their approach and experience.
Clinic models often depend on the personnel available in a community. A single physician
may be interested in post-polio problems, seeing survivors on a triage (O) basis, referring
them to a physical therapist, occupational therapist, nutritionist, psychologist, social worker
or orthotist, etc., and following them as the need arises.
A multidisciplinary (Q) clinic in a rehabilitation setting can save people time and travel by
having the various therapists present to examine and recommend on the same day. The
multidisciplinary treatment team is usually directed by a physiatrist and includes a physical
therapist, occupational therapist, speech therapist, recreational therapist, rehabilitation
psychologist, rehabilitation social worker, rehabilitation nurse, a dietitian, orthotist (brace
fabricator) and a vocational counselor. There usually is access to specialists in pulmonary
medicine, orthopedic surgery and neurology. However, it should be noted that neurologists
direct several post-polio clinics.
Some clinics require a physician's referral(s).
