im scared!

I'm feeling really nervous about tommorrow because im not sure what to expect! Although at the same time I am really excited and am looking forward to meeting my supervisor. I'm a little worried about interacting with patients and remembering all the theory we've learnt. I can see the physiotherapist/ my supervisor working with other health professionals, including other physio's by liasing and communicating with them in regards to many things such as a patients presentation or seeking advice about anything outside a physio's scope of knowledge, etc. In terms of rehablitation the physiotherapist would need to, for example, liase with the surgeon about any post-op complications or orders or liase with the OT when planning patients discharge. The physiotherapist would probably be in constant communication with other health professionals.
