Hannah Willoughby @H20physio Hi I'm Hannah neighbourhood service lead in Somerset #physiotalk | |
Charlotte Hayers @CharlotteHayers #physiotalk Hello I am a Year 3 student looking forward to some information regarding whether rotations will be the best option for me and why 😀 | |
Janet Thomas @JanetThomas47 Hi I'm on the @physiotalk account tonight from Edinburgh. I'm a long way out from Band 5 / Junior / Basic grade rotations though :) #physiotalk | |
Abdullah⚕️ @Abdoullwah @physiotalk #physiotalk | |
Janet Thomas @JanetThomas47 @Louise_Brennan_ @physiotalk You do get about! #physiotalk | |
vicky fieldhouse @vics_f #physiotalk Tweeting from Somerset with my cup of tea | |
Helen 💙 @helenvyoung @physiotalk Seeing patients in their home environment and the plus and minus that presents, independent working and time management of course. #physiotalk | |
Alex Winch @AWinch_Physio @physiotalk I'm a bamd 5 rotational physio, and I'm really lucky to be in a post which allows me to rotate across different community services as well as the acute hospital #physiotalk | |
Alex Winch @AWinch_Physio @physiotalk Yes! I've gone from the front door to the back door in one year which has been really valuable to my understanding of the whole journey. It doesn't stop at hospital discharge! #physiotalk | |
Isabel Chenciner @IChenciner @physiotalk As we move away from hospital centered care, it's important we all become more comfortable with working in the community. Community Rotations enables us to see patients in their home environments, where they spend most of their time and understand their world. #physiotalk | |
vicky fieldhouse @vics_f @CSPsouthwest @physiotalk It still seems to be implied. The focus needs to change to support the Band 5 development. The community can still offer diversity but also access to specialisms earlier if a physiotherapist wants to develop in a certain area #physiotalk | |
Helen 💙 @helenvyoung @CSPsouthwest @physiotalk Rotating through different clinical areas doesn’t have to just be in acute hospital setting. There is scope for other areas still within the NHS for example. #physiotalk | |
Alex Winch @AWinch_Physio @physiotalk Rotating into the community have given me a whole new perspective, and I now think I'd be able to make better discharge plans within the hospital when I rotate back in #physiotalk | |
Janet Thomas @JanetThomas47 @physiotalk We certainly utilise as many cardioresp placements in the community as possible. Its pretty equally spread - so does this reflect the B5 opportunities too? #physiotalk | |
vicky fieldhouse @vics_f @physiotalk Happening in Somerset between @SomParNHS and @MusgrovePark #physiotalk | |
Charlotte Hayers @CharlotteHayers If you don’t/can’t get acute experience will this hold you back from future jobs/opportunities? #PhysioTalk | |
Helen 💙 @helenvyoung @physiotalk If you’re expected to cover on call as B5 then need experience of acute respiratory. Experience in respiratory can come from other areas + request time to spend on ICU / more acute setting for example to be more confident with acute - but need supportive team lead. #physiotalk | |
Helen 💙 @helenvyoung @physiotalk For other rotations - to make a request shows interest in a particular area. #physiotalk | |
Megan Wisson @Physio_Wisso @physiotalk I often hear it referred to as lonely physio with a lack of contact between physios and the wider MDT, however my personal experience has been the complete opposite #physiotalk | |
Megan Wisson @Physio_Wisso @physiotalk The community environment can provide barriers for certain treatment options which physios could otherwise provide if in an acute setting #physiotalk | |
Helen 💙 @helenvyoung @physiotalk Lack of support from team perhaps - although not experienced. #physiotalk | |

Alex Winch @AWinch_Physio @physiotalk I think people can feel like they are de-skilling if they aren't surrounded by a busy environment with machines beeping, but at times in the acute I've felt like a D/C planning machine whereas in the community I'm able to use all my skills #physiotalk | |
Helen 💙 @helenvyoung @physiotalk Could also depend on the type of community rotation: generic vs more specialist / specific #physiotalk | |
vicky fieldhouse @vics_f @CSPsouthwest @physiotalk Band 6 posts look for experience in the clinical area you are applying for. A static Band 5 MSK post can still give you knowledge and skills in T&O, rheumatology, hands, paediatrics as well as general MSK. You can utilise the opportunities #physiotalk | |
Alex Winch @AWinch_Physio @physiotalk There is also a fear that as a junior, if you don't get acute experience you wont be able to move up the bands. I know someone who got rejected for a band 5 job for not having had any acute placements as a student :( #physiotalk | |
Janet Thomas @JanetThomas47 @AWinch_Physio @physiotalk That really frustrates me (as a placement coordinator!) Try to get a mix of placements and as broad a profile as possible for our students - but all placements offer transferable skills! #physiotalk | |
Dr Michelle Bull 💙 @MichelleBull4 RT @JoFishpoole: | |
Helen 💙 @helenvyoung @physiotalk If it’s a rotation then skills learnt helps develop breadth and depth to your clinical reasoning - that has to be a good things for a B6. If you want to continue in community then also good. #physiotalk | |
vicky fieldhouse @vics_f @CarylAPhysio @emaroids1 @PhysioAlec @CharlotteHayers I feel it does depend on your interest. Personally I knew I wanted to be an MSK practitioner, I went down the rotation route in an acute Trust. This didn’t change my course, I’ve just been 2 years slower progressing there. #physiotalk | |
Janet Thomas @JanetThomas47 A quick google and first B6 job I found certainly has acute work as essential criteria! #physiotalk | |
Janet Thomas @JanetThomas47 @PhysioArmstrong It was for an hospital rotational post - but included areas such as falls, ortho and stroke where you might think community experience would be a win! #physiotalk | |
Barry Pryer @bmpryer Agree 100% | |
vicky fieldhouse @vics_f @AWinch_Physio @physiotalk That’s appalling, Band 5 posts are meant to focus on developing the physiotherapist. There are always transferable skills in every job role, you need to highlight what you can bring to a role whether you are moving from community to acute or vice versa #physiotalk | |
Megan Wisson @Physio_Wisso @ClaireC_PT @physiotalk Often gym/rehab equipment that could not be taken to a patients home and that they could benefit from if they had the access/desire to attend a community gym for example #physiotalk | |
Megan Wisson @Physio_Wisso @physiotalk Yes yes yes! As long as they seek their own learning opportunities #physiotalk | |
Helen 💙 @helenvyoung @physiotalk I think that must largely depend on your team lead. In my experience, a good team lead will ensure CPD and supervision time is factored in /arranged - whether it’s acute or community. Also good experience for B5 to manage those things too. #physiotalk | |
vicky fieldhouse @vics_f @emaroids1 @CarylAPhysio @PhysioAlec @CharlotteHayers Slower. It has always been sold as having a rounded approach by carrying out your Band 5 rotations. You can still gain a lot of those knowledge and skills through a static post. MSK can involve T&O, rheum, paeds, pain management, hands, neuro and reap. #physiotalk | |
kate bennett @kategahr_kate RT @AlexMacKenzie11: | |
Janet Thomas @JanetThomas47 @PointingPhysio @physiotalk Would argue that this is when CPD and the time for this becomes even more important? #physiotalk | |
Janet Thomas @JanetThomas47 @EdDavis1988 @southernscampi @physiotalk But do you really know you want to do MSK from Day 1?! Perhaps 'your' speciality is one you haven't experienced - yet! ##physiotalk | |
rami abbas @ramiabbas4 RT @helenvyoung: @physiotalk I think that must largely depend on your team lead.

vicky fieldhouse @vics_f @CSPsouthwest @EdDavis1988 @physiotalk Within a static post there are still opportunities to develop that wider knowledge. At @SomParNHS we have a fantastic Band 5 programme, they could observe ESP’s, FCP’s, APP’s in MIU. We share working with stroke and neuro therapists. Community doesn’t stop choice #physiotalk | |
kate bennett @kategahr_kate @physiotalk Sorry...very late joining, I'm Kate former @AGILECSP chair and clinical lead community physio. Crossover with other professions is my answer, easy to dilute skills rather than become a versatilist #physiotalk | |
vicky fieldhouse @vics_f @physiotalk I’ve always found it varied depending on the Trust and the emphasis placed on a motivated and informed workforce, not acute versus community. #physiotalk | |
Helen 💙 @helenvyoung @physiotalk I’ve never experienced any challenges to my professional identity in community. More of a challenge in an acute setting sometimes TBH - patients, staff & visitors alike sometimes think we’re nurses. #physiotalk | |
vicky fieldhouse @vics_f @physiotalk That said @SomParNHS CPD is excellent :) Supported Band 5 pathway for new starters Specific Band 5 training 6 weekly 1:1’s Observations Clinical supervision Joint treatment sessions And 90 minute of self CPD time a month #physiotalk #supportingdevelopment | |
Anna Collier @AnnaFizz @physiotalk I found the generic working, with minimal training, challenging initially as a community physio and was surprised how much I was expected to push my professional boundaries without competencies to demonstrate I had sufficient skills in that area #physiotalk | |
