The Community Companion (Community Physiotherapy) is a complete, practice-focused guide to physiotherapy in the community — written for BPT students, interns, and practitioners who serve patients beyond hospital walls.
Across 50 chapters in five parts — Foundations of Community Physiotherapy, Community-Based Interventions, Occupational & Industrial Health, the National Health Delivery System, and Special Considerations — it covers community assessment, home-based care, health promotion, disability and rehabilitation services, occupational health, and India's public health system, including primary health centres and frontline health workers.
Every chapter closes with Key Points for quick revision, making the book equally useful for university examinations and day-to-day field practice. Clear, practical, and rooted in real Indian community settings, it bridges the gap between classroom theory and community practice.
