- Hey everyone, my name is Masud, in todays video I’ll be explaining what passive listening skills are and why they’re important to the role of a physiotherapist.
Passive listening is the ability to consume information from an individual whilst not responding.
It’s an integral part of subjective assessments in physio.
When we are just starting out as physiotherapy students and junior physios, we tend to not listen to our patients because we just want to get out our questions and make sure we’re getting a detailed subjective history taking.
Even though we have good intentions to get as much information as possible from the patient, this doesn’t necessarily allow the patient to fully open up about their problems.
So doing it this way usually takes a lot longer and there are abrupt disruptions to the patients story telling which disrupts the flow of the assessment.
As we get more experienced as physiotherapists we tend to selectively pick out bits of information to focus on from the patients story telling for instance like if they’ve said they got their pain after they went on a walk.
We focus on on that and ask how long was your walk distance wise? What kind of surface was it - hilly or flat? Did you take any breaks in between?
So basically getting the details out of their chat and they respond a lot better that way after we have allowed them to say their story.
Sometimes if you’re seeing a number of people during the day you do tend to have your own way of assessment taking especially if you’ve seen so many of the same thing your pattern recognition instantly kicks in and takes over and you just ask directly the questions that need to be asked.
Again it comes with experience but when you’re starting out passive listening helps you to build better rapport and complete higher quality assessments.
Hope you found this useful, thanks for watching!

Very insightful and interesting topic, Masud! Listening is really an important skill to have and develop as a physio
Cheers David, absolutely
Hey man I’m looking to get into physio I’m in Australia btw but I have no atar and hsc and I’ve been told I have to do a diploma and bachelor of health science to start studying it, it’s roughly 3 and a half years to do the diploma and bachelor, does that course take the time off of the total duration of the Physiotherapy degree? and what do the courses consist of im just worried I have to do the course for 3 years and then go on to study the total entire duration of physio 😕
Hi Masud, I was wondering if you had any of your old university essays?
Hi Maariyah, check this video, in the description - th-cam.com/video/qO5kjQNEXZ0/w-d-xo.html
hey Masud, I am a Registered Nurse BScN from India and recently I got interested in the physiotherapy. Can I get an admit in a masters program in physiotherapy in the UK or I have to do it all over again and go for Bachelors in Physiotherapy. What would you recommend ?
You can get into a masters program just contact the university directly for their requirements

Hi, I have university interviews for BSc Physiotherapy and i was wondering what you would say if they ask why you have chosen physiotherapy and not medicine? Thank you for your help.:)
Hi Emma,
That’s great.
So very similar to the question I posted on the community tab the other day:
‘Why do you want to be a physiotherapist rather than a doctor/nurse?’
Answer: (this is what I’d say)
Because physios are more practical and help patients throughout their rehab from start to finish usually whilst a doctor/nurse is more responsible for alot of the acute (just after an injury/illness) care like in the event of a trauma or when a patient is not feeling well…you love this because you love seeing the transformation and it gives you a rewarding feeling knowing you were apart of that persons journey into a better quality of life…
You’re a practical person who loves being active and encouraging others to move. Physio fits your personality more than being a doctor.
You don’t enjoy administering medicine or the thought of blood 🩸…(in physio there is very little blood)
You can say something similar to this, these are some reasons why you might pick physio over medicine.
Let me know if I haven’t fully answered your question.
Masud Saeedi Physiotherapy Thank you so much that helped a lot!
Hey Just a Quick Question: Does Students get paid anything for Placements in physiotherapy during studies ?
unfortunately no they don’t
@@masudsaeediphysiotherapy8689 Thanks Man
I wanna pursue physiotherapy course from Uk, but It's a gap of 10 yrs from my study life as I'm doing job. What are the procedure for adults? Can I pursue this course directly??
Hi,
Look into applying for an access to healthcare course/ foundation degree in science. This will give you the academic equivalent of A levels and allow you to apply for a physio program after 1 year of study.
Shall I do a video on this for you?
@@masudsaeediphysiotherapy8689 my pleasure. I'm eagerly waiting for that.
@@bunnu502 will do soon
Is there any college which will accept adult's entry without higher access course? Waiting for your reply.
My question is can we work as an assistant physiotherapist without having HCPC registration.
Yes you can
I have taken admission in university of Northampton for msc sports where can I find assistant physiotherapist jobs any links or site ?
@@sanjanadhanavat2357 www.jobs.nhs.uk/
