Your name<\/strong>: <\/strong>Carina Therese Magtibay<\/a> <\/a><\/p>\n

Time active with Physiopedia: <\/strong>Almost a year and a half already!<\/p>\n

Current role with Physiopedia: <\/strong>I\u2019m a Content Volunteer for Physiopedia. This means l check the Physiopedia pages for content and references.<\/p>\n

Where did you go to university\/college?<\/strong> Lyceum of the Philippines University- Batangas.<\/p>\n

Where do you work? <\/strong>I currently work in the Philippines.<\/p>\n

Describe your role: <\/strong>I work in a private clinic where I handle mostly musculoskeletal (MSK) cases.<\/p>\n

What is the most rewarding part of being a physiotherapist?\u00a0 <\/strong>The most rewarding part of being a physiotherapist is empowering my patients. It is a joy helping them take the lead in their recovery journey. On the other hand, working with Physiopedia allows me to pursue my passion for learning and writing. I am so fortunate to be able to do both!<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>What are some of the more challenging aspects about your work? <\/strong>I think the challenging aspects of my work include initiating evidence-informed practice at an organisational level and debunking misconceptions about the physiotherapy profession among my patients.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>What are some of your professional passions? <\/strong>I\u2019m still in the process of figuring out what I want to do, but I am leaning towards something that will let me work with the geriatric population, while writing on the side.<\/p>\n

What are a few of your personal passions? <\/strong>Reading and crocheting are my go-to activities to wind down. Oddly enough, doing the dishes is also a form of relaxation for me.<\/a><\/p>\n

What would be your advice to a newly graduating physiotherapist? <\/strong>Focus on your long-term goals and do something every day towards those goals.<\/p>\n

Where do you see yourself in 5 years?<\/strong> Honestly, I have no idea but I\u2019m pretty sure that I will be in an environment where I am learning more about physiotherapy and writing.<\/p>\n

What are the best things about being a part of the Physiopedia team?\u00a0 <\/strong>Physiopedia is an eye-opener for me. I used to be discouraged by the limitations in my practice, but being a part of Physiopedia made me realise that there are ways to work around those limitations and that there is a greater purpose to what I do. Collaborating with different rehabilitation professionals around the globe inspires me to continuously improve myself. Most of all, the team culture nurtures growth \u2013 personally and professionally.<\/p>\n

How has being a Physiopedia team member helped your professional development\/career progression? <\/strong>Physiopedia opens up many learning opportunities. For example, I was introduced to the Journal Club in the Rehabilitation Community platform<\/a> where I get to learn more about research.\u00a0 I also recently finished the Implementation Science training which I believe will be helpful in all phases of my career. Doing these activities has boosted my confidence while expanding my knowledge.<\/p>\n

What are your hopes and aspirations for Physiopedia?<\/strong> I hope Physiopedia will continue to have a huge impact on the field of rehabilitation. I believe Physiopedia has valuable input that can be useful in advancing research.<\/p>\n

What is your favourite Plus course?<\/strong> Fall Prevention Through Exercise<\/a>. This course is full of practical tips that I have applied and proved effective in my clinical practice. \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Anything else you would like to share? <\/strong>For all rehabilitation professionals, I invite you to join the Rehabilitation Community powered by Physiopedia as part of the ReLAB-HS Project.\u00a0 If you are interested in research, I recommend checking out Journal Club:<\/strong> https:\/\/community.physio-pedia.com\/groups\/reading-and-discussion-group\/<\/a>
