Dear Aspirant,

Since you are a non-European physiotherapist and want to work in the United Kingdom, you will initially have to apply for HCPC or Health and Care Professions Council. They will research your background and check your educational qualification and your history in academic. They will specifically look at your post-graduate degree. They would lastly ask you your experience as a physiotherapist and an international career in this would help you to have more chances to get selected and your experience as a physiotherapist will, therefore, matter the most at this step. After the interview, they will match it to the UK requirement and check if you are competent enough.

The criteria used to examine this is Standards of Proficiency which are 15 in number and are as follows:

1. You should have the ability to conduct a safe and effective within their requirements for practitioners
2. You should be aware of your legal and ethical boundaries as a physiotherapist.
3. You should be able to maintain your health
4. You should be independent in your judgement and be professional
5. You should be respectful of culture, equality and diversity and learn about its impacts
6. You should be non-discriminatory in your practice
7. You should maintain confidentiality and understand its vitality
8. Communication should be effective
9. You should be willing to work with others
10. You should have the skill and ability to maintain records
11. You should have the habit of reflection of your practice
12. You should be aware of the key concepts involved in your profession
13. You should be equipped with knowledge-based skills to inform practice
14. You should have the idea of how to establish a safe environment for your clients and practice.

You have to be honest about yourself as HCC looks up your truths and tries to catch where you might not seem authentic. You should keep these standards in mind in your practice so that they shine through your previous experience.

Other than this, you would need a

• certified copy of your qualification certificates
• certified copy of the translation of the qualification certificate if required
• certificate of professional status
• photocopy of an eligible language test certificate in English if English is not your first language, otherwise a declaration of the same.
• UK Visa

You will also have to pay a scrutiny payment of 495 pounds!

Hope this helps. All the best!

Hello Risit,

Bachelor in Physiotherapy and Bachelor in Dentistry Surgery both are medical courses. But, with respect to income, BDS is higher than BPT. Also, there is demand for BDS. But being in BDS, you will have to have a clinic of your own whereas if you are a BPT graduate, you need not open your clinic but you can work in association with the hospitals and health centers.

Your final decision is based upon your likings. If you like studying about the facial and neck structure you can go for BDS. Else, you can choose BPT.

Good luck!

hi,

see you can surely apply for government hospital after you complete your bachelors course. however if there is any recruitment comes then only you may apply. it will be good to apply for private hospitals along with government hospitals.

hope you may understand.

hi

hope you are doing well

According to the members of the Indian Association of Physiotherapists (IAPT), usage of ' Dr ' was more a matter of courtesy rather than adherence to law.

Indian Association of Physiotherapists (IAPT) has released a bulletin regarding this,but after you register with IAPT and get a recognization with MCI you can use DR. as prefix

hi,

bpt stands for bachelor in physiotherapy, Physiotherapists professional is like Doctors so they can use the prefix Dr. prefix of their name. according to the notifications of  The Indian Association of Physiotherapists (IAP) it is valid. but  you also need to register yourself with IAP after the completion of your bpt course. you may use MIAP after bpt degree.

You need to give the NEET EXAM to get into BPT that is physiotherapy course. You will need to score some 350+  to get into a good physiotherapy college. I'll talk about Mumbai, for renowned colleges like KEM, physiotherapy cutoff was around 406 marks in 2019. So accordingly you can set your target as per your own state.

Best wishes. Thank-you.
