What settings do you have experience working in as a physiotherapist?
This question allows the interviewer to explore your healthcare background and what environments you have worked in to understand if your background aligns or if you've worked in an environment where your skills would transfer well. Give an overview of the settings you've worked in (hospitals, community health centres or clinics, GP surgeries, sports teams, clubs, charities, or workplaces) and include the range of patient populations you've worked with. You can also include details about the pace of the environment or give insight into the size of the organisation or even the volume of patients you care for in that setting.
"In my current role, which I have been in for three years, I have worked at an adult care home. In this position, I conduct full patient assessments to understand their limitations and injury or illness, create goals and select an appropriate treatment programme. I work with patients who have suffered from falls, muscle weakness, range of motion and joint issues, balance problems, and mobility issues. I really enjoy working with older adults and I'm passionate about helping them regain independence through therapy services."
