How Physiotherapists Can Address Barriers to HEP Success
Adherence challenges are common, but they aren’t insurmountable. By understanding the key factors influencing compliance, physiotherapists can implement targeted strategies to improve outcomes.

Psychological Factors
Motivation: Motivation is a key driver of adherence. Patients with clearly defined goals and encouragement from therapists are more likely to stay on track. Techniques like goal-setting, motivational interviewing, and positive reinforcement can be highly effective.
Self-Efficacy: Patients need to feel capable of performing their exercises. FroomCare Pro helps build confidence with detailed instructions and visual demonstrations.
Stress and Fatigue: Life stressors can interfere with adherence. Physiotherapists should work with patients to identify practical solutions, such as modifying the program to fit their current capacity.

Practical Factors
Clarity of Instructions: Simple, clear instructions are crucial. FroomCare Pro’s visual aids make exercises easy to comprehend and execute.
Flexibility: Programs that fit into patients’ lifestyles are more likely to be followed. Offering a range of exercises and allowing patients to choose the most convenient times for their routines can boost adherence.
Accessibility: Patients are more likely to complete their HEPs if they can access them effortlessly. QR codes and simple links without signing in like FroomCare Pro streamline this process.


Social Factors
Support Systems: Involving family or caregivers in the rehabilitation process can enhance adherence. Physiotherapists can also encourage patients to join support groups or find exercise partners.
Therapist Interaction: Regular check-ins and open communication build trust and accountability. Patients who feel supported by their therapists are more likely to stay committed to their HEPs.
