3 Four kinds of coffee

This is a nice simple activity to start you thinking critically about what physiotherapy means for you and how you’d like to see it develop.

Here are four images representing four different kinds of coffee.

Take a moment to look at each of the images (they expand if you click on each image), and then scroll down to the prompts below.

Prompts

1. Which of these images best represents how you see the physiotherapy profession today?
2. Try to think of one positive and one negative aspect of this particular image of the profession.
3. If you’re doing this in groups, get people together into the four different groups and ask why they chose this image of the profession rather than one of the others.
4. Now think about where you would like the physiotherapy profession to be in 10 years time. Would it be the same kind of image, or would you choose another?
5. Ask yourself what this change (if any) represents for you and also for everyone else if you are doing this as a group.
