My Profile Summary
Please contact me for an up-to-date copy of my resume:
I am currently working in Sydney in predominantly orthopaedics and as an Allied Health Coordinator. This involves being a clinical role model for the Allied Health team, as well as managing the Allied Health staffing for the hospital. I have been working in more of a management role for the past year.
Prior to moving to Australia in 2020 I was working in the UK as a senior Physiotherapist in a musculoskeletal outpatient setting assessing and treating a full caseload of patients with sometimes complex conditions.
I have been working for 22 years, the most recent 11 have been in orthopaedics and the previous 5 years were in the musculoskeletal/outpatient setting.
In the UK I was latterly in charge of a small team of physiotherapists - teaching and supervising both those colleagues and students on a regular basis. I also liased closely with orthopaedic consultants in fracture clinics and contributed to inpatient orthopaedic patient care at weekends.
I have completed several courses including ACL rehabilitation, complex Shoulder Rehabilitation, Orthopaedic medicine courses, the assessment and treatment of the Sacroiliac Joint, the Mulligan concept and Acupuncture to name a few.
I would be keen to work in an acute or rehabilitation setting as this is where my recent experience lies and I am happy to continue in a partly managerial role.
