Career framework and why we may need to take a different approach to developing P&O careers and how the framework could help with this. This talk will be linked to the workforce reform project and will discuss the deliverable for the workstream, which is to modernise career frameworks.
Request for Proposals (RFP) – Demonstration patients
The British Association of Prosthetists and Orthotists (BAPO) is seeking two experienced demonstration patients:
- One person with trans-tibial leg amputation caused by diabetes who walks with a trans-tibial leg prosthesis.
- One person with knee arthritis and medial compartment knee syndrome who wears a knee orthosis (knee brace).
Requests for Proposals (RFP) are sought for two demonstration patients to contribute their stories for inclusion in a new project “Case studies simulation for learning about prosthetics and orthotics”. BAPO has been successful in securing seed funding to develop a new learning resource simulation in the form of a mobile gaming application.
Request for Proposals (RFP) – Content writers
The British Association of Prosthetists and Orthotists (BAPO) is seeking experienced prosthetic and orthotic experts to contribute to the development of a game application prototype designed to enhance learning about prosthetics and orthotics. As a content writer, you will be responsible for writing one or two patient case studies that will be used in the simulation app.
The simulation app will allow learners to interact with simulated patient case studies, listen to and watch their stories, and investigate their situations by asking questions. As the simulation progresses, learners will be required to make critical decisions about treatment actions, and the virtual reality in the game will change depending on their choices.
