11. Curtin student quote “As an OT (student), I prescribe equipment that will ensure patient safety. Now having worked with podiatry, physiotherapy and pharmacy, I have a better appreciation of how specific exercises for balance, fitness and strength, modification of footwear and possible changes in medication can all decrease the risk of falls.”

12. “In real life the client isn’t going to be doing something that is OT related and then something that is speechie related and then something that is physio related. They’re going to be walking down the street, going into the shops, choosing what they’re going to buy, asking for it from the shop assistant, that all happens together in real life. So it’s better that we all work together”. Curtin student quote
