Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Physiotherapy] From Trinity College Dublin

Physiotherapy is both physically and academically demanding and you will need to have considerable emotional stability and strong communication skills. Visiting a local general hospital or other area where physiotherapists work will give you a good understanding of what exactly is involved.

Physiotherapy @ Trinity

Physiotherapy is?based in the Trinity Centre for Health Sciences in a purpose built complex at St. James?s Hospital. This complex houses other health science disciplines and allows physiotherapy students to share courses with those in the other health sciences to give a multidisciplinary approach to studying and working. The centre is about two miles from the main campus and is beside a Luas station on the line running between Tallaght and Connolly Station in the city centre.

All students will have clinical placements at Trinity?s associated teaching hospitals of St. James?s and AMNCH in Tallaght, where there is an established expertise in most areas of physiotherapy. These placements allow students to gain experience in some of the specialist areas of physiotherapy including neurology, respiratory care, coronary care, orthopaedics, women?s health, care of the elderly, sports and out-patients.
