This question allows the interviewer to test your technical knowledge as well as gain some insight into your communication skills and ability to educate others. The interviewer uses a keyword here; brief. They want to see that you have the ability to be concise yet still provide the necessary information that the patient needs to understand. Be sure to end with the opportunity for your "patient" to ask questions. If you do not know anything about the topic, be honest and explain that it's one you're not familiar with but are happy to research and learn more about.

"Proprioception can be explained as body awareness. It's the body's ability to sense its movements, actions, and locations, and its purpose is to prevent injury by creating balance and spatial awareness. Proprioception can decrease with age, injury, or disease, making daily tasks harder and increasing your risk of injury and falls. Fortunately, adding proprioception training exercises to your routine can lower your risk of injury by improving your balance and stability. Do you have any questions so far?"
