whats the pay compare like between private and NHS

@daniellowephysio 10 ай бұрын

The NHS pays £17.24 an hour as a band 6 physiotherapist, £16.73 as a band 5 (new physio). My private work charges £45 for 45 minutes, £55 for an hour. Hope this helps. I know some physios charge a lot more privately, upwards of £130 an hour!

The benefit of masters is it is a shorted degree (2 years rather than 3) so if you already have a degree this may be a great option!

A few reasons really. first was I wanted to get the experience in the NHS, and as long as I'm still learning, I'm happy. Secondly, I wanted to start my own clinic, but that requires money, so the NHS funds that at the moment, whilst the private clinic is building up.
