I love hearing my patients tell their relatives what they’ve been doing in physio. After facilitated walking today with some first signs of regaining sensation there were happy tears all round 😄🙌🏼

It's not my dissertation unfortunately, but I did write something. New blog on how to manage patients with mental illness (spoiler - I'm not sure, please help!) and about looking after ourselves too ➡️ rorythestudentphysio.wordpre…

Well done to everyone with their results!🙌🏼 Two years ago today I found out I’d got the grades and was going to study Physiotherapy at Coventry University, now I’m preparing for my 3rd placement and final year at uni - time flies when you’re having fun! #alevelresultsday2018

Trying to educate my chronic LBP patients that pain does not equal tissue damage! Very difficult to explain persistent pain to someone whose life it affects so dramatically!😬

Starting my 2nd placement today, MSK outpatients - let’s do this!💪🏼

This makes me so sad, but being on placement you can see how the pressures of the NHS can lead you to have the target based mentality. Striking a balance between targets and patients will always be difficult, byt patient care should always win. #Hospital #StudentPhysio #Placement teapaw.org/emmavaughan24/status/9…
Quote of the day from #BBC2 #Hospital..."you run risks of managing to a target and not managing the patient" 😔

We were shown this at the first @thecspstudents rep training I attended. Thought it might be worth sharing for our new reps #studentleader #CSPEmpowers youtube.com/watch?v=fW8amMCV… via @youtube

Top tips for networking. It’s a two way thing - most important thing is to invest time in people. Don’t be afraid to walk into a room full of stranger and just talk! #CSPempowers @thecspstudents
