    Core Competencies

    Taping
    Hi all,

    Management requires development of core competencies for various levels of staff (physiotherapist, assistants and aides).

    Time constraints etc. necessitates that I get some assistance.

    Any ideas, websites etc. would be appreciated.

    Thanks all.

    OK, Here you go. Courtesy of the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy in the UK

    The articles are in pdf format and are attached but here's a list of what I have included on this post. I hope it is of use

    The Scope of Practice of Physiotherapy

    This document describes the scope of practice of the physiotherapy profession and of individual physiotherapists. It describes the issues that need to be considered when defining scope of practice and provides a tool for assisting members in answering scope of practice questions.

    Core standards of physiotherapy practice 2005


    This revised version of the Core Standards of Physiotherapy Practice has been updated through considerable consultation with clinical interest and occupational groups and individual members.

    Service standards of physiotherapy practice 2005

    Standards of physiotherapy practice 2000 - Audit tools

    The CSP clinical audit tools provide a template for members to audit both the core and service standards and so identify areas of good practice and also areas for development work.

    The tools here relate to the Core and Service Standards as published in 2000. Work to correlate the audit tools with the new standards is being identified and will be taken forward later this year. In the meantime, the Society is still recommending members use the 2000 tools, in conjunction with the 2005 Standards.

    Competence and Capability Resource Pack


    The resource pack explores the terms 'competence' and 'capability'. It examines why the development and maintenance of competence is important, identifies systems and structures that underpin this process, and provides advice and good practice where capability concerns may arise.

    Guidance on Manual Handling in Physiotherapy

    This 2008 publication has entirely new additional sections, with the former 1998 and 2002 versions revised to further inform and protect the membership in issues of manual handling.

    Using Competences and Competence Frameworks

    This paper is intended to accompany the recently published CSP 'Competences and Competence Frameworks: Skills for Health and the competence agenda' . It looks at the practical issues involved in using competences in a variety of ways, with case studies included where possible.
