CSP Physiotherapy Framework

Values are defined as a set of ideals that motivates and informs an individual’s behaviour and actions.
At the heart of physiotherapy practice is a set of values - shared by all CSP members - regardless of their occupational role, practice setting, or level of practice. These values inform the behaviour and actions of CSP members, and the knowledge (theoretical and applied) and skills that the physiotherapy workforce uses and develops. This element is a single domain.

The values at the heart of physiotherapy practice are:

• accountability for decision making and actions
• advocacy
• altruism
• commitment to excellence
• compassion and caring
• fulfilment of duty of care and social responsibility
• honesty and integrity
