Writing a Band 5 Job Application

Starting a job application can definitely be daunting, especially when you have no experience of writing one before. But don’t fear, we have been there very recently and thought we’d offer our support to those of you thinking of applying for jobs in the near future.

You may realise that writing the supporting info for a band 5 job is very similar to your university application (although you now know more about physiotherapy, and you have more experience), so don’t overthink it! Once you start to create a structure, it can be added to and changed for each job you wish to apply for.

We would also like to point out, there is no right or wrong time to apply for a job – if a job comes up that you feel is right for you or something you really want to do, APPLY for it! You never know, you might end up getting the job, especially if you are enthusiastic about it, its not always down to who has the most experience or the better grades!

The basics:

• Sell yourself
• Prove you can meet the health-board or NHS trust values and job description
• Add your personality to the application – make your application unique (remember this blog is an example)
• Reflect on both clinical and personal experiences
• Remember even if you don’t get an interview with your first application, you will continuously be building on your experience day by day, which you can add to your application

Opening paragraph:

• State what degree you are doing and where, and the date you expect to graduate.
• Explain why you are attracted to working for that health-board
• State some qualities about yourself (i.e approachable, team player ect.)
• Sum up clinical experiences and what you wish to gain in the future working for the health-board
• State the core values of the health-board and how you will show these (i.e. treating each and every patient individually, to the standards I would expect of my own loved one, whilst acting with respect and care, ensuring patients are put at the centre of my care).

I am currently studying for a Physiotherapy BSc (Hons) degree at Glenohumeral University, and I am due to graduate in July 2021, when I will receive my full HCPC registration. I am attracted to working for Cerebellar healthboard because it has been recognised for its range of high-quality specialist acute services and active promotion of good health and wellbeing. I am an empathetic, friendly team-player, but can work independently. To date I have enjoyed all my clinical experiences and have used these to build on my classroom learning. I hope to continue expanding my knowledge and experiences in a wide range of areas before specialising. I believe I can show evidence from… to demonstrate the core values of Cerebellar healthboard…

Second paragraph:

• Describe what you have done in your degree and the placements you have completed and what you are yet to complete.

During my degree, I have completed seven clinical placements within four different health boards. These placements have encompassed the core areas of Physiotherapy alongside more specialised services…. I have completed my core placements in Musculoskeletal Outpatients… Trauma and Orthopaedics. …

Clinical placement, skills and knowledge paragraphs (normally 3-4 paragraphs ):

• Expand on your placement experiences and what skills and knowledge you have developed from them (i.e verbal and non verbal communication).
• Use an examples of where and how you showed these skills/values of the NHS/health-board
• What you have achieved from these experiences and how you changed your practice from these

Throughout my placements, I have learnt to adapt my communication skills, particularly within Paediatrics and ICU, to ensure communication remains competent with a range of individuals with different needs…

The high flow of appointments within my Musculoskeletal placement, allowed me to work on my organisation and time management….

I have successfully and autonomously managed my own caseloads using my assessment and management skills. In cases where I have been presented with challenges, I have used my initiative and been proactive in finding ways to overcome these…

Strengths paragraph:

• Sum up your strengths and how these are recognised in your work

I feel that effective communication and building a strong rapport with patients are two of my strengths; both have been recognised in feedback I have received on clinical placements…. I am hardworking and motivated evidenced by my 100% attendance…. In a clinical setting, I work hard to improve my knowledge by doing independent research and presenting this back to my colleagues…

Dissertation/research paragraph:

• Provide a background to your research/dissertation or some research you have recently read and what you have learnt from this

I completed my dissertation about… I have found throughout my degree that I have become more interested in this area of physiotherapy and the important role physiotherapist play in these situations. I believe my research will greatly benefit my future practice where I will have to…

Outside of Physiotherapy paragraph:

• Give a brief summary of what you do outside of your studies (i.e. a job you have, volunteering you have done, sports you are involved in)
• Express how you balance these activities
• Explain the qualities that these activities have given you

Outside of my studies, I have a part-time job as a… which I have been doing for the past 6 years, and I volunteered for two of the projects at Glenohumeral university… Being employed and participating in these projects alongside my studies encouraged me to effectively establish resilience…. I have been a keen swimmer from 8 years of age and I still swim at my own leisure. I was also an active member of Cerebellar University Spikeball team which I thoroughly enjoy and had the opportunity to play for the national BUCs team this academic year.

Final paragraphs:

• State if you have a full driving license and car access
• State if you can use computer software and experience using note writing systems
• State why you would be the best physiotherapist for that health-board.

I have a full driving license and access to a car. I can effectively use computer software and have had experience writing discharge reports and referral letters, as well as working with online note systems.

I believe that I have the desired skills and qualities to be a compassionate and trustworthy physiotherapist within Cerebellar health-board. Should I be successful in securing a position within Cerebellar health-board, I would carry out my job with enthusiasm, integrity, and full commitment.

Best of luck in completing your applications, please feel free to message one of us if you want your application checking over!

• Physiotherapy Personal Statement Examples

Your personal statement is an essential part of the UCAS application process , as it allows you to showcase your passion for physiotherapy and demonstrate why you are the ideal applicant for the course. To help you write a winning university application , we are showing you free physiotherapy personal statement examples that you can use for inspiration.

Physiotherapy Personal Statement Example

As someone who has always had a passion for physical activity and fitness, I believe that studying for a degree in physiotherapy is the ideal next step for me. Having already achieved a first degree in physical education, I am now eager to build on my knowledge and experience and to develop the skills that will enable me to help people recover from injuries, prevent future injuries, and live healthy, active lives.

One of the reasons why I am so passionate about physiotherapy is that I believe in the importance of physical fitness and well-being for the health of the whole person, both physically and mentally. Through my work as an instructor, I have seen first-hand the positive impact that regular exercise can have on people’s lives, and I am eager to help others experience those same benefits.

In addition to my work as an instructor, I have also gained valuable experience through my involvement with the Duke of Edinburgh Award. Over the past four years, I have completed my Bronze and Silver awards, and more recently, I achieved my Gold Award. As part of this award, I spent a week at a camp for disabled teenagers, where I was a buddy to an 18-year-old girl with profound Cerebral Palsy. This experience gave me a real insight into the challenges faced by people with disabilities, and the important role that physiotherapy can play in helping them to lead active and fulfilling lives.

More recently, I have had the opportunity to gain further experience through my work at Nottingham Nuffield Hospital. Here, I observed clinical assessments in the outpatient department and saw firsthand the crucial role that physiotherapists play in helping patients to recover from a wide range of injuries and conditions. I also had the opportunity to work alongside physiotherapists on the ward, where I was able to see how they use their skills to help patients who are recovering from surgery or illness to regain their strength and mobility.

I am convinced that studying for a degree in physiotherapy is the ideal next step for me. With my passion for physical activity and fitness, combined with my existing knowledge and experience, I believe that I have the qualities and skills needed to make a real difference in the field of physiotherapy. I am excited about the prospect of learning more about the science of human movement, rehabilitation, and injury prevention, and I am eager to contribute to the growing body of knowledge in this field. Ultimately, my goal is to become a skilled and compassionate physiotherapist, helping people of all ages and abilities to lead healthy, active lives.

Physiotherapy Personal Statement Example For UCAS

I have been drawn to the field of physiotherapy. From the early stages of my academic journey, I have been interested in the human body and how it functions, particularly with movement and sports. Pursuing this passion, I have taken on various experiences that have allowed me to gain an understanding of the essential role that physiotherapy plays in helping people achieve their physical goals.

My work experience placements at Watford General Hospital and Mount Vernon Hospital have been instrumental in shaping my decision to pursue a career in physiotherapy. During my time there, I was able to observe and learn from skilled professionals, as well as get an insight into the various techniques and treatments used in the field. I was particularly fascinated by the paediatric centre in mid-Wales where I had the privilege of accompanying a physiotherapist on house visits. Witnessing the impact that physiotherapy had on children’s lives was truly inspiring, and I felt a sense of fulfilment in being able to contribute to their wellbeing.

In addition to my work experience, my recreational and competitive background in sports has helped me to develop an understanding of how physiotherapy can help to prevent and treat injuries. As a Senior Sport Organiser, I have gained experience in working with young athletes and have learned how to create a safe and healthy environment for them to thrive. My part-time job as a pool lifeguard has also allowed me to hone my communication and interpersonal skills, which I believe will be vital in my future career as a physiotherapist.

Throughout my experiences, I have come to appreciate the wide range of skills and knowledge required of a physiotherapist. It is not only about diagnosing and treating physical conditions, but also about building relationships with patients and their families, educating them on how to take care of their bodies, and helping them to set achievable goals. I am excited by the prospect of developing these skills further and making a difference in people’s lives.

I am eager to pursue a career in physiotherapy and believe that my academic achievements, work experience, and personal qualities make me an ideal candidate for the program. I am committed to continuous learning and growth, and I am confident that I will excel in the program and make valuable contributions to the field of physiotherapy.

Physiotherapy Personal Statement Examples

What is a physiotherapy personal statement?

Your physiotherapy personal statement is a piece of creative writing you need to put together for your UCAS form.

It enables university admissions tutors to assess who you are and whether they want you on their course and at their university.

This means your personal statement has to include information about your strengths, achievements and ambitions, whether you’re applying for an undergraduate or postgraduate course. .

Our tips below will help you present yourself in the best possible light.

How do I write a physiotherapy personal statement?

We recommend you start by looking at our example physiotherapy statements above to give yourself an idea of what a successful one looks like. It will also show you how you might structure it and what you could talk about.

We then suggest you sit down and brainstorm for ideas on what you could include. These should cover:

• Academic achievements
• Practical work and coursework you have enjoyed
• Personal traits
• Life experience and motivations for wanting to study your subject
• Work experience (including any voluntary or charity work)
• Extracurricular activities
• Career goals
• Gap year plans (if you have any)

Once you have an initial draft (our personal statement template can help with this), pass your physiotherapy personal statement on to freinds, family and teachers for their feedback. Make sure you incorporate their comments and suggestions (if you feel it improves the statement), and then ask them to look at it again.

It's likely you will need to go through at least three or four rounds of this before you have a polished statement that you can submit on your UCAS form.

What should I include in my physiotherapy personal statement?

• Students often begin with why they want to study physiotherapy, usually a few sentences or so about a life event or family member that inpsired them (or whatever it was that sparked your interest in the subject).
• Let your enthusiasm shine through by talking about your work experience, wider reading, hobbies, or anything else relevant to physiotherapy that enforces your passion for the subject.
• Talk about any specific physiotherapy skills you have learned and what aspects of the subject you enjoy most. Admissions tutors want to see that you have researched the course and know what's involved.
• To become a good physiotherapist, you'll need excellent interpersonal, teamwork and social skills, as well as lots of patience! Try to demonstrate these skills throughout your personal statement using the notes you made at the start.
