Rebecca and Chris discuss the behavioural influences impacting the integration of oncology exercise into care, review the CHALLENGE trial and reflect upon the role of behaviour change in its success, and explore real world examples of oncology exercise implementation (a 25 to 75% increase in oncology rehabilitation adoption was seen by strengthening communication channels within a co-located exercise service).

This session aims to drive discussion on how we can optimise existing exercise pathways and create new ones with early behaviour change at point of referral.

(Rescheduled from 5 November).

For injured workers, early access to physiotherapy has been linked to faster recoveries, fewer complications and lower overall healthcosts. So it makes sense that many businesses are putting into place early intervention programs, but these are not always straight forward for the treating physiotherapist. Come along to this workshop to find out what an early intervention program is, what are the benefits of them, and how to navigate some common early intervention difficulties.

Physiotherapists are increasingly using dry needling for pain management and thereby improving function in conjunction with other physiotherapy approaches. This structured course meets the national APA and AHPRA recommendations for physiotherapists to practice dry needling safely for musculoskeletal conditions and sports injuries.

The sound knowledge of indications and contraindications for dry needling requires appropriate assessment and treatment skills. This course is designed to provide physiotherapists an opportunity to improve knowledge and skills of dry needling, and make them aware of guidelines for safe dry needling practices in a range of musculoskeletal conditions.

The Dry Needling Physiotherapy Level 1 course consists of two separate parts:

• Part A consists of seven recorded lectures and is self-paced online learning. On completion of Part A, participants will have a good knowledge of the theory, research and safety considerations of dry needling. Part A is a pre-requisite for the Part B face-to-face practical course. It is also valuable as refresher training or CPD.

• Part B face to face, practical course. This course will assume the knowledge gained from Part A. Through group discussion, presentations and a written theory evaluation during the practical, this course will ensure participants can safely needle a range of body areas and conditions.

A visual representation of the structure of this course can be found in this diagram.

Presented by Specialist Sports Physiotherapist Jane Rooney, the course will cover contemporary evidence based assessment and management of commonly presenting acute knee conditions. This one and a half day course is fully practical with interactive clinical problem solving. You will also provided with 4 hours of self-paced online learning, that is required to be completed prior to attending the course.

Join Jane Rooney, FACP, Specialist Sports Physiotherapist (as awarded by the Australian College of Physiotherapists in 2009) during a masterclass observation session in assessing and treating a live patient with a complex knee condition.

Participants will undertake a clinical reasoning form during the examination; participate in a Q&A session; and explore Jane Rooney's experienced clinical reasoning process, including differential diagnosis, treatment plans and prognosis.

This hour and half seminar is ideal for physiotherapists undertaking the APA Specialist or Titling training pathway, or physiotherapists wanting to improve their clinical reasoning and patient examination skills.

The masterclass is included in the full ‘The Acute Sporting Knee' course registration but can be purchased as an individual event.
