In this video with Steve Miller, physiotherapist and founder of Grow Physio, he shares his best tip for newly graduated sports physiotherapists, sports therapists and anyone starting out working pitch side: complete a PHICIS (Pre-Hospital Immediate Care in Sport) Level 2 or Level 3 course Sport before you need it on game day.
Drawing on his own experience of feeling underprepared when faced with a serious injury on the field of play, Steve explains why immediate care training is important for anyone working pitch side in sport.
Steve believes training should be made mandatory and has created his own Be Ready course via Grow Physio Academy to prep immediately.
If you are a new sports physio, sports therapist or pitch side practitioner looking for practical advice on managing sports injuries, protecting athlete welfare and building confidence before covering matches, this is the one tip Steve wishes he could give his younger self.
