    Re: Fractured neck of femur

    I hated physio school, too much trying to work out what they were asking us. Justify the problems? Surely they are all justified by the fact the person broke their Femur!
    Further learning objectives for the Physio... hmm... increased knowledge of the condition and the physiological effects that can occur etc? What mobility aids will be required for the stages of bone healing. What the surgery will involve. Just think about what you don't know and I figure those are things that you can learn and turn into learning objectives... oh the anaesthetics used and the effect they have on the respiratory system is really important and what physios will do e.g. mobilise and other breathing exercises

    Agreed, I'm in first year so the wording takes a while to get used to! Thank you so much, this has really helped and got me thinking about other ideas too.
