I really valued the opportunity to present to 4th-year physiotherapy students at Western Sydney University today and discuss how the APA can support the healthcare system by advocating for reforms that enable physiotherapists to work at the top of their scope.

I recently caught up Assoc. Prof. Mick Reynolds from ACU, to congratulate him on his new role as Chair of the Australian Physiotherapy Council. The APA looks forward to working with the APC to ensure Australia continues to have the safest and most ethical physiotherapists.
