Project Description[edit | edit source]
This project has been developed by year 2 students on the MSc (pre-registration) Physiotherapy programme at Queen Margaret University, in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the module ‘Current and Emerging Roles in Physiotherapy Practice’. The aim of the module is to prepare learners for emerging physiotherapy roles in response to changing healthcare needs, evolving contexts of delivery of practice and government health targets.
Objectives[edit | edit source]
This project aims to fulfil the following module learning outcomes:
- Critically evaluate and synthesise the key issues drawn from the literature, relating to an emerging area of contemporary physiotherapy practice
- Identify and justify the knowledge, skills, behaviours and values which are required by physiotherapists to be effective in undertaking a specified role within the selected area of contemporary physiotherapy practice, both now and in the future.
- Use appropriate software to construct evidence of continuing professional development
Students work in groups to build shared wiki resources under each of two main themes:
- Management of enduring conditions
- Service design and delivery
In 2011-12 , within the first of these themes, students will explore the role of the physiotherapist in public health and self-management. In the second theme the students will consider recent changes in scope of physiotherapy practice as well as the skills and attributes necessary for successful private practice. It is anticipated that as the project develops in future years, further themes and sub-topics will be added.
