Practice education placements 5 and 6 are your final placements. Here, you will consolidate your practical and academic experience, again in a location and context, individual to each student.
You will be expected to manage/lead a clinical caseload consistent with the expectations of a newly qualified physiotherapist, recognizing scope of practice and referring where appropriate. the emphasis will be on independent working, with minimal but consistent supervisor support.
During these two placements, we ask you to consider specific NHS core values. Graduate employability should be enhanced by gaining an understanding and demonstrating how each value of the NHS constitution applies in everyday work across all healthcare settings.
Students will document their understanding and examples of the value in practice as part of their reflective portfolio and discuss these with an academic tutor post-placement.
