Treatment portfolio Learners must: Produce a treatment portfolio that includes evidence of practical treatments carried out with proficiency. The treatment portfolio is an evidence requirement which must be completed prior to learners undertaking the practical assessment. VTCT specifies the services to be carried out and evidenced in the portfolio. The treatment portfolio can be used as a confirmatory and formative assessment to prepare learners for the practical assessments. The purpose of this portfolio is to evaluate learner performance and use the information gathered to shape and improve the learner s performance in preparation for summative assessments. Centres should consider the use of formative self and peer assessment as part of the learning journey. Whilst treatment portfolios are not graded, they may be sampled by the EQA. Treatment portfolio The treatment portfolio should contain evidence that learners have: Completed a minimum of 4 treatments Covering application of taping and strapping techniques Completed the application of taping and strapping techniques for a minimum of 4 intended purposes Pain reduction Injury or re-injury prevention Biomechanical correction Increased stability of anatomical structures Reducing strain on damaged tissues (unloading) Compression (oedema reduction) Lymphatic drainage Completed the application of taping and strapping techniques using a minimum of 5 taping and strapping materials Zinc oxide Elastic adhesive bandages Kinesiology tape Cohesive bandages Underwrap Fixation tape Elastic non-adhesive bandages 2 Applying taping and strapping to support and limit specific movement in sport and active leisure
