There is a strong focus on ethical and professional communication and behaviours as well as on development of high-level communication skills with clients and as part of collaborative multi-disciplinary practice. The program also has a strong focus on evidence-based and reflective practice ensuring graduates will be well prepared to meet the challenge of current and future health provision across the many clinical and non-clinical areas in which Physiotherapists are employed.
