Post # 11: Challenges in your discipline.

I think that in Chile we need to improve a lot of things to make better physical therapiests, not for be better than other countries, the important thing is improve the career, for improve the professionals and then, improve the health of this country.

On a Hand, in Chile exist a big problem about the salaries and the statal investment, the dirty money put us its feets on our heads, and that is a real reform that its necessary, not just in the Physical Therapy, in the statal hospitals. But in the exclusive area of Physical Therapy, i think that we need mor time for the treatment, time for follow the reparation of them problems, and have the oportunity of make a better work, decreassing the morbility in the muscleskeletical area. And that idea isn't so utopic, I think that more efficient professionals could make work more in the same time, work and make better the life of a lot of patients, but

How?

Well, that's the challenge, improve the deducation of Physical therapiests, who learn since first year in them university the value of the career, and the importance that they'll have in the future, a future not so far... That is the principal reform to make in this country, the same idea ( like the last post) about make changes with a looking in the long-term, a vision that just a few
have in this country, the Capitalism is Capitalizingf us!
And work in theresearchs, Chile is very poor in the context of the Physical Therapiests's research, we need make better treatment, but we need national research for have a scientific foundation, that guarantee us and with taht, discover another things, maybe another pathology or change milenaries treatment for another more efficient.

On the other hand, we have to teach and teach once and once time again social values, like the altruism, or just improve the empathy in chilean's Physical therapiests, because they're going to work (maybe) with patients for years and years, and one time they could have rich patients, poor patients, homosexual patients, murder patients and they must help them, not for the rule of hypocrates, because they're person, a person who made mistakes (muerder) and you don't know how could be him later, maybe he can help your life, and because and that is their life, you aren't a judge who choose who must be good or bad, you're a man or a woman who learn something calls Physical therapy, and that value must be so much higher for have a better treatment.

And Finally ( because i don't have more hands), I think that we can improve the chilean medicine, this occidental medicine mixing the oriental medicine, a medicine more holistic, which work with pathologies and with people, a perfect complement, which could work very good in american countries (at last).



Ok, see you later!

  2. I agree with you in the financial problems that we have, if we had more money we could do more investigations that concern the chilean population, so we could prevent more and improve the chilean health.
