A new series of courses on Physiopedia Plus (Plus) has been developed to help support students, new graduates and educators with learning and teaching fundamental knowledge topics in rehabilitation.<\/p>\n
It is distressing to feel lacking in knowledge or skill. Perhaps you are newly qualified and feel ill-equipped for your first placement as a qualified professional. This may be exacerbated for students who studied during the COVID-19 pandemic where training facilities and academic institutions had to make adjustments due to COVID-19 restrictions imposed at the time. This may have meant limited in-person time spent training with instructors, mentors, and\/or practical interactions with patients on clinical placements. The pandemic also necessitated a shift in the medium in which instruction was delivered, in some instances allowing less opportunity to demonstrate practical skills, and resulting in cuts and changes to curricula. \u00a0However, it isn\u2019t just newly qualified staff who can identify gaps in their knowledge or skills \u2013 whether we are changing jobs, moving into a different field of work or stepping back into the profession after a break, all professionals can relate to needing to get to grips with the basics.<\/span><\/p>\n In response this need, Physiopedia Plus is developing courses and resources to bridge the knowledge gap. The new Plus functional <\/span>Exploring Anatomy Programme<\/span><\/a> in collaboration with Primal Pictures was created to provide inside-out knowledge of this core topic to support professionals at all stages of their career. The anatomy courses cover each anatomical area of the body as it relates to function and clinical significance \u2013 discussing bones, ligaments and muscles, as well as the movements and nerves and blood supply for the area. After completing these courses you will feel confident with your anatomy knowledge!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
