Advice for clinical placements

[suzquattro]

Hi. I'm a first year Physio student in the UK and i will be going on my first placement in the next few months. I was just wondering if somebody could give me some good advice or tips on how to get the most out of it. Not sure what field i'm going into yet either!

Thanx

This wil prob sound quite straight forward but - go there, listen, take it all in and do some pre-reading/study so you can understand the conditions you are seeing as much as possible. Learn to build rapport with patients and listen to your supervisors.

it's your first placement so it'll all be new - see if you enjoy that particular type of physiotherapy.

Enjoy!
