About the role
A sports physiotherapy assistant supports rehabilitation under the direction of a qualified physiotherapist. The interview focuses on safe exercise supervision, accurate observation, respectful communication and knowing the boundaries of delegated work. The panel needs confidence that you will report changes promptly rather than diagnose or alter treatment yourself.
How to prepare
- Review how you would supervise a prescribed exercise and describe movement quality objectively.
- Prepare an example of noticing a safety concern and escalating it to the responsible professional.
- Revise concise rehabilitation notes covering symptoms, assistance, repetitions and response.
- Think through how to protect privacy when discussing a player's condition with team staff.
- Practise explaining a simple exercise without adding advice beyond the agreed plan.
Common mistakes
- Diagnosing an injury or changing the rehabilitation plan without authorisation.
- Using vague notes such as the player did well instead of recording observable details.
- Pushing through a sudden symptom to complete the planned repetitions.
- Sharing confidential health information with people who do not need it.
