Hi,
many thanks for your efforts.
Could you please give a few more details:
Who are you?
What is the purpose of your research?
Who will be the assessor? Which organisation is responsible for handling the information?
Who will have access to the information and in which ways will the information be used?

You ask for a lot of information that might potentially identify the author (3, 4, 5), how will you warrant anonymity, please?
Kind regards,
Fyzzio

Hello Fyzzio,

Sorry for not clarifying, I am a first-year student from Western Sydney University, aspiring to work as a physiotherapist, the answers collected from these questions will be used for a case study and for myself to reflect based on the answers of a health professional in physiotherapy.

The case study is intended to assist with writing a thought-provoking look at my chosen profession through interviewing a current health professional. Through reflecting on the interview process and articulation of the interview with a health professional, my own understanding can be compared and contrasted.

All question can be answered by the author without breaching their confidentiality, such as; (not providing names of client or the interviewee, not providing specific location)
- question 3, what degree they study and how long the study time of the degree
- question 4, what are the general duties of a physio when dealing with clients, such as providing rehabilitation ect...
- question 5, specialisation such as sport and exercise or occupation health and why, for myself, I am looking to specialise in sports and exercise physiotherapy, as I hobbyist in being fit and enjoy being in a sporting environment.

The final report will be submitted online to the University through turnitin, where our lecturer will assess the report.

Any contributions to this is appreciated during these difficult times.

thanks,
