Rate My Professor Liz Kemp

The Northern Centre, under Liz Kemp's coordination, provides a key teaching base for clinical education and hands-on experience in district health boards and community settings. Students complete clinical blocks and a research block, preparing them for registration to practice independently as physiotherapists in New Zealand. As a clinical educator, she supports students in building clinical competencies, including in areas such as acute stroke rehabilitation, while emphasizing patient rights, informed consent, ethical and legal responsibilities, and culturally sensitive practice. Liz Kemp promotes pastoral care, work-life balance, and access to support networks, viewing student interactions as a mutual feedback process focused on strengths and growth opportunities. Her contributions extend to scholarly work, including co-authorship of the 2021 publication 'Keeping it going: the importance of delivering interprofessional education during the COVID-19 pandemic' in the Journal of Interprofessional Care. Through these roles, Liz Kemp significantly influences the training and professional readiness of future physiotherapists.
