Are you Right for Pro Function's Internship Program?

Pro Function Team Learning

Are you or someone you know:

  • Currently enrolled in a University Program?
  • Looking to gain true experience in a clinical environment?
  • Want to know how all aspects of a successful practice operates?
  • Hoping to maybe become one, but not 100% sure what the difference truly is between a Physiotherapist, Chiropractor, Naturopathic Doctor….?   

If ‘yes‘ is your answers to these questions, then the Pro Function’s Internship program may be  something to consider. 

 

 

Unlike the more common “shadowing” opportunities, Pro Function’s Internship Program is far more than just following a clinician around the office and wiping down tables.

With a total of 2 internships offered each year, successful candidates will be expected to, and have the opportunity to:

  • Shadow no less than 3-5 health care professionals from various disciplines including Physiotherapy, Chiropractic care, Massage Therapy, Pedorthics, Osteopathy, Naturopathic Medicine and others.
  • Spend assigned time with our patient care team where you will learn the importance of running a smooth front desk and some of the details behind private practice business management.
  • Acquire and grow your fundamental knowledge about pathology, subjective and objective testing, diagnosis formulation and treatment techniques.
  • Ask questions, be questioned, be assigned “homework” in the form of small review or “look-up” tasks and submit to the odd, but non-graded, more fun-focused “pop-quiz”.
  • Complete a small but clinically meaningful research assignment to share with your Pro Function colleagues. 
  • Acquire and demonstrate growth and confidence with all aspects of a positive patient experience, including greeting patients, listening, communication, understanding goals of treatment, learning interventions to treatment, planning follow-up sessions and assisting in the maintenance, upkeep and cleanliness of a treatment environment. 
  • Demonstrate and be exposed to the same rigors and expectations that a candidate will face if they choose to pursue a career in health care and go on to do a post-graduate curriculum..   

The Pro Function Internship program is a non-paid internship and candidates must be willing to commit 6-8 hours of availability each week over the 8-week program. Additionally, candidates must have access to transportation given that the program operates between both downtown London at Pro Function Health Care Team and its south London sports injury clinic.

Here at Pro Function our goal is to help grow and guide the next generation of clinician and we are very proud to say that all of our past internship residents have successfully been accepted and excelled in their chosen post-graduate programs. 

Think you might be a fit for the internship?  Feel free to email us you interest at volunteer@profunction.ca and we’ll provide you with the details for our upcoming term.

If you’re an athlete, at any level, you’ll want to meet Brooke! Brooke Edwardson’s resume and skill with athletes is not only impressive, but it just keeps getting bigger and better.  Having graduated with a Masters of Physiotherapy from Western University, Brooke knew without question that she wanted to work with top athletes – and she wasted no time making her mark. 

Brooke currently see’s patients inside Pro Function’s 40,000 sq ft facility which allows her to really engage and challenge with her patients in their chosen activity/sport. She also engages athletes outside the clinic.  Currently, Brooke sits as head of the medical team and lead physiotherapist for the FC London Soccer club and she has been a member of the medical support staff at our national Canada games.   She even volunteers her time and skills annually to a number of sport charity events. 


Now that might be enough for some, but not for Brooke. 

Brooke really is passionate about growing and sharing her knowledge with others.  Knowing that, it’s really no surprise that Brooke has been accepted to a unique, one-of-a-kind Masters program that specializes in Sports Medicine here in London at Western University.  In this program Brooke will collaborate with other sports Physiotherapist, Athletic Therapists, Sports Medicine Physicians, and Surgeons.   She’ll also gain an opportunity to complete her research study with Soccer Canada and gain experience with top-tier athletes from the NBA and the NHL. 

From growing up playing competitive soccer to working alongside Varsity athletes at Western University, to working at Fowler Kennedy Sport Medicine Clinic, Brooke’s resume speaks for itself. 

Outside of the clinic, Brooke loves finding creative ways to stay active and is up for the challenge of trying out a new sport or skill.  She enjoys running, hiking, water sports, and of course soccer!  She also loves to travel and spend time with family and friends.
