The changing landscape of physiotherapy student clinical placements: An exploration of geographical distribution and student performance across settings

ConclusionsThe changing distribution of physiotherapy clinical placements may be reflective of increasing student numbers and greater efforts to support students completing rural and remote placements. This change may lead to a positive effect on the rural and remote physiotherapy workforce. Further research is required to determine the specific training and support needs of students and clinical educators in rural and remote settings.
