The Board is holding an invitees‐only symposium to share important information and gather feedback on its standards and draft Code of Ethics.
Over the last year the Board has undertaken three important projects: implementing the binational Physiotherapy Practice Thresholds; an initial consultation and review of the Aotearoa New Zealand Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct, working with Physiotherapy New Zealand project; and finally, producing a draft suite of professional and practice standards.
Together these documents provide the framework for the future of New Zealand physiotherapy and our vision to foster excellence and actively make a difference.
