Excellent placement experience – Birmingham is the UK’s second city with a diverse population of over one million people. The city is served by some outstanding healthcare facilities (e.g. Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Birmingham Children's Hospital, Royal Orthopaedic Hospital) that provide many practice-based placement opportunities for our students. We take a patient-centred approach to preparing students for placements, with time for reflection on these experiences, ensuring our graduates are prepared for a career as a physiotherapist in a range of contemporary and culturally-diverse healthcare settings.
Placement cover a wide geographical area, with several in Hampshire and the Isle of Wight, but also in Dorset, Wiltshire, Surrey, West Sussex, Somerset and beyond. The boundaries are ever changing as we make more contacts with more areas. We hope to place you in many different geographical areas for exposure to different ways of working.
Venue
A wide variety of clinical environments; in placements where students are unable to travel to and from the placement each day accommodation can be arranged by the programme’s clinical team.
