Abstract

This study employed a descriptive design using a survey technique with a self-made questionnaire distributed to 18 DLSU-Aguinaldo Physical Therapy Interns Batch 1992 chosen simple quota sampling. The data from the questionnaire tallied, tabulated, and analyzed using percentage, mean, and standard deviation. Clinical supervisors used a variety of tools to assess, guide and promote students. One of the feedbacks and evaluations. The use of praise words "nice work" and "good job" without specific feedback had students wonder what they did right and if they can do it again. All 18 students, 15 or 84% of them got grades above 80 under the category of satisfactory and good. Only 2 or 11% got grades 70-74, the lowest grade that a student should get to pass. The strength of the subjects as revealed by the evaluation tool was professional attitudes while safety procedures and interpersonal relationships as their weaknesses. Most comments being responsible and punctual, kind, courteous and have an evaluation sheet where an interpersonal relationship was one weakness of the subjects. Based on the results, we recommend a dialogue to all clinical supervisors of East Avenue Medical center. Students should be aware of their weaknesses, so lectures should give. May this study continued and be a guide in the assessment of their practice.
