10 year challenge: Physio beliefs
How did you beliefs change in 10 years, or even less?
When I heard @PeteOSullivanPT say at his course in London three years back: “I’m not afraid of pain”, was a game changer for me.

Today’s reflection 🤔

HCP colleagues who refer to MSK PT (non post op/#) and request very specific PT interventions, I would like to respectfully request that you please STOP. 🙏

Referral ✅👍
Body part, Hx, PMH ✅👍
What we should do ❌👎

@ChloeWilliamsPT Congratulations 😁

There's a lot of power in a conversation. As the experts, physio staff hold so much potential to motivate change.

"If you don't use it, you lose it!" - couldn't have put it better myself.

#physiotalk with @thecsp Council candidates last night sounded really positive. Physiotherapy lucky to have such passionate leaders. Don’t forget to vote and good luck to all the candidates! #votecspcouncil

#Physiotalk workforce issues need to be included in more open discussions to allow good working models to be used elsewhere and less helpful models boosted. Spreading the support through the generations of physiotherapy.

[Sarah Shephard @SarahJShephard]

@felicity_begley @physiotalk #Physiotalk totally agree

[Sarah Shephard @SarahJShephard]

@_JoeMiddleton @acutemedicine @sam_ahp #Physiotalk brilliant idea

[Sarah Shephard @SarahJShephard]

@katiem_wilkie @IanTyrrell5 @_JoeMiddleton @emaroids1 @emmajaneryan0 @physiotalk @thecsp @theRCOT #Physiotalk the rehab works and falls videos have been a good stepping stone, we need to continue using this to push physiotherapy into the limelight

[Sarah Shephard @SarahJShephard]

#Physiotalk we need to be visible and accessible to all countries utilising the networks and country boards

[Sarah Shephard @SarahJShephard]

@KarenPhysio Totally. The opportunities are so exciting for physiotherapy. #Physiotalk

[Sarah Shephard @SarahJShephard]

#Physiotalk restrictions for the funding to provide the service in both acute and community. accessibility to patients with recruitment. more unwell patients posing more challenges and more lengthy rehabilitation

[Sarah Shephard @SarahJShephard]

Q3 #Physiotalk listen to what the other HCPs and public think of physiotherapy then address this. I am fed up of public thinking we only massage. Ongoing education to all!

[Sarah Shephard @SarahJShephard]

Q2 #Physiotalk i agree @AlexMacKenzie11 experts and external members can help increase knowledge and understanding, invaluable for engaging disinterested csp members
