I agree with you Bernard as well as SuperFizz.

I use breathing control a lot in my outpatients.

I am jaded by the "simple" rountine you do on the wards. I always felt like a second rate nurse doing the dirty work on the wards - even ICU.

I personally prefer outpatient/musculoskeletal work because there is so much more variety (simply because there are more body parts involved) and because I can *see* it, I can *hear* it (crepitus/clunking/clicking/rubbing/etc), I can *feel* it and I am very good at it naturally - good hands but theory needs more work! I can't see or feel the airways, just hear them therefore I don't get as involved.

With cardio physio, I believe it is an essential part of physio and there will always be those who are more interested in it than I am - and I am thankful for that!

I do see simple chesty/pneumonia stuff in my practice but thankfully <0.25%!!!

Keep up the good work - Thank God for you all out there!
