  • Remember patient confidentiality! Do not disclose any information that enables us to identify your patients.
  • Be respectful and empathetic to those where English is not their first language.
  • Remain professional at all times.

The discussion forum is going to get very busy!  Please do not try to read ALL the comments that are posted because if you do you will become completely overloaded.  Here are our discussion forum tips:

  • What is most important is to make sure that you contribute to the forum with your thoughts, knowledge and questions so that others can also learn from you.  
  • Make specific responses to people by typing in their name so that they will get alerted to any responses that they may get.  
  • Spend the time that you have available reading some of the conversations that you find interesting and new.
  • Feel free to form small groups in which to have discussions.

So to get us started, before the course starts introduce yourself to each other. Post a short summary which tells us where you live, whether you are a physiotherapy student, clinician or other, how much experience you have with amputees and what you hope to get out of this course.
