#542015-06-10 03:59The profession is poorly recognised. We work so much harder than other professions who end up getting the same salary......ridiculous. This has to change. I'm doing my comm serve and already wanting to leave the profession because of the ridiculous salary that doesn't get you anywhere after working extremely hard for four years! |

#562015-06-10 17:30Physiotherapy! The third highest admission requirements for university other than Mbchb and dentistry. Even higher than pharmacy. Exceptionally skilled and knowledgeable on all fields in hospital. One of the worst remunerated health professions with community service pharmacist earning same as chief physiotherapist and pharmacist assistant earning almost similar to community service physiotherapist. Weak representatives at national level, poor spirit of ubuntu with private physiotherapists giving no support to colleagues in government forgetting recognition in government will bring about change in medical aid fees in private sector. This country needs to know what the rest of the world Internationally already knows and support. Physiotherapists are part of the cream of academic crop in health system and most hard working. They deserve better salaries and recognition. Improve a health system? Just give the job to the physiotherapist. |

#572015-06-10 17:35As a surgeon I can honestly say I cannot work without a physiotherapist. Patients take longer to leave hospitals and complications risks are higher if there is no physiotherapist. This means patients end up spending much more as an inpatient in hospital. Also recovery time is much longer. |

#582015-06-10 20:05I feel we are underpaid then not allowed to moonlight for extra money, this is unfair... We have worked too hard to be rewarded with peanuts |

#592015-06-11 17:04I am currently doing my community service as a physiotherapist. I was very disappointed (still am) to find out that we earn the same as people who have 3 year diplomas in the work that's nowhere near as physically, mentally and emotionally demanding as ours. What shocked me even more is that after community service the salary decreases. I feel cheated. Thanks for this petition! |
