Different places

One of the frustrations of the placement I am on is that I know the requirements of the placement are different than the requirements at an equivalent placement at a different location. For example, we are still reporting to our supervisor after every subjective and objective assessment while at the other location students are doing their subjective, objective and treatment without reporting to their supervisor in between. We are also writing far more notes than students at the other placement. On one hand it may be good for us to be getting the extra feedback but it would be nice if the system was more standardised.

You're nearly there mike - the end is nigh. Just put one foot in front of the other!

Yes I completely agree you with Mike. It's so hard to know what to expect when every place is different and sometimes you're being supervised with a few different people and they all expect different things.

I agree that it is hard and sometimes it is just 'luck of the draw' with the placements. I guess this is why Peter says they have the PCR to try and make sure our knowledge is standardized
