Mindful Dialogues in Community-Based Physiotherapy. Being Mindful, Staying Engaged, Being Responsive

      Аннотация: Human relationships developed in community-based physiotherapy are usually hidden behind the walls of family homes, embedded in the practice of physiotherapists who work in those settings. Hermeneutic phenomenology was used to explore and reveal the ways in which these therapists enhanced their relationships with clients and their families and carers to best promote their wellbeing. Narratives and poetry from within the experiences of the participants revealed some typical ways of understanding and ‘being together’ in these community-based physiotherapeutic relationships, which contributes to discourse about community-based healthcare.
