Steeper Best Practice Group
Established within our orthotics team is the Steeper Best Practice Group. The purpose of the group is to produce evidence-based guidelines that will be used clinically to ensure standards of patient care are safe, clinically accurate, cost-effective and consistent across the company as a whole. Further to the group, we employ clinical specialist orthotists who specialise in the fields of paediatrics, diabetes, and rheumatology. This team reviews current practices, conducts audits, develops protocols and facilitates training along with providing remote and direct support to all our orthotists.
Steeper Product Evaluation Group
As part of further training and development, the Steeper Product Evaluation Group (PEG) was established to provide an informative comparison document helping to inform and educate our orthotists into making the most clinically accurate and independent solutions. Members of PEG meet regularly to evaluate product ranges by highlighting the features, benefits, and clinical applications of each product before collating the information and producing educational reports with the findings. All PEG reports are accurate at the time of publishing, and the views and opinions expressed in all the documents are those of a number of experienced practitioners and may not represent the views of Steeper.
