Physiotherapy

As a physiotherapy student, what has inspired me most is the memory of my first placement, and the first patient who said “thank you!”. Knowing I’d helped someone in need to achieve their greatest potential gives me the motivation to work towards gaining skills for life in one of the most rewarding careers. What makes it rewarding is knowing the difference you can make. The University has given me these skills, and I have been taught by a variety of specialist Physiotherapists.

I find my course challenging but very enjoyable. We cover the main 3 physiotherapy areas; Musculoskeletal, Neuro and Respiratory which we build on during placements. We have a mixture of practical exams, essays and presentations which I think is good as these require different skills to develop and it means if you are less strong in one aspect you can make it up in another. I particularly like placements, we do 6 all together so work in a variety of different areas.

I will remember my time at York St John for the knowledgeable lecturers who worked together to deliver a very organised course. I now work as a physiotherapist on an acute medical ward and my course was excellent preparation for this.
