Physiotherapy Work experiance

[Rache101]

Does anyone have any details about any Work Experience for Physiotherapy in London?

I doubt if there's a central source of wisdom - you could try the pages of the chartered society of physiotherapists, to see what they say. You could also write to the head of physiotherapy at your local hospitals and ask them if they have a programme that would be suitable. (hospital physio will cover the whole range of physio tasks, not just sports type injuries, so would give the best idea of what the profession, and course, is really about)

Work experience placements in hospitals get booked up very quickly, you need to contact physio departments in hospitals directly to find out how to book places with them. Other than that you could look at the charity sector. There are therapy centres for people with long term neurological conditions that provide physio, and they might be more flexible about offering WE.

Agree with the above - I would also encourage looking into different options in which physios work to get a breadth of experience. Sometimes charities that employ their own therapists or increasingly there are private practitioners (not all sports/outpatient) emerging who may more readily offer WE.

Just beware that some nhs trusts no longer offer WE to under 18's (particularly vulnerable patients or children) but good luck! I remember it was tough when I was looking some years back

What age student are you looking for? My dept (NHS) don't offer anything under 18 and then they have to have a full CRB check and register with the trusts volunteer scheme so the whole thing is a major hassle TBH.
