Abstract
Introduction:
• The Australian Physiotherapy Council (APC) examines entry level physiotherapy
programs in Australia to ensure key practice thresholds are fulfilled.
• The Physiotherapy Board of Australia (PhysioBA) & The Physiotherapy Board of
New Zealand (PBNZ) have established self-directed learning & reflective practice
as threshold competencies to ensure life long learning.
• An overarching focus of clinical education for heath professional students is
practical learning.
• However, practical learning alone is inadequate for producing health
professionals that are flexible, self-aware & understanding of alternate
perspectives.
• Critical self-appraisal is widely recognised as a method of analysing practical
performance and reinforcing perishable skills.
• Critical reflective practice promotes complex thought processing to assist
individuals with effective management of dynamic situations and
environments.
