In this podcast Mel talks about the recruitment process to follow for graduates seeking a role in private practice.

Many 4th year physios are in the midst of their final placements in private practice and have been faced with challenges and fears about stepping into the real world of private practice. Mel sits down with Levi to discuss what his time has been like in a rural private practice placement with Physiomentor. He opens up about what he was most worried about as a graduate student and what he was most impressed or surprised about.

Mel discusses healthspan vs. lifespan. Extending the period of good health in one's life is also known as healthspan. This is a goal that should be a top priority for everyone. Most of our clients are unaware of the concept between healthspan and lifespan until it is too late. What can you do about this as a physiotherapist?

Mel discusses the topic of Programming in Physio. Are you good at it? Do you need to upskill in a gym setting? What is the value of the knowledge of how to complete a back squat or deadlift correctly? Take the reins of the rehab journey and be able to steer your client from the start of the course to the end with the complete package of skills from acute rehab to end-stage return to training, play and sport with confidence.

This week Mel talks about overservicing in private practice. It is a big fear of graduates that they are seeing their clients too much, when in fact the reality is they underservice and discharge too early without long-term results. Mel discusses a long-term client within her clinics and how they managed the overservicing debate to gain long-term outcomes for their clients.

The Power of Language

Employer Expectations of Graduates In Private Practice Day 1 Physiomentor

Exercise sheets are labelled as recipes and are frowned upon in our profession, yet we expect our graduates to somehow know what to do with every condition without the sheet music to follow. A basic cook needs a recipe for the more complex cooking skills, so why do we deprive our graduates of their recipes to follow. There is no badge of honour for doing it the tough/hard way. Let's have a listen and find out our thoughts.....

The learning curve our graduates take in private practice can be steep. This podcast will take you into a graduate physiotherapist's make up and why they put so much pressure on themselves.
