Abstract

“appear to slow the unleashing potential of physiotherapy” – consider re-wording

Introduction/background

“The vulnerability of physiotherapy (PT), for example, as a challenge in providing effective and relevant treatment strategies” – consider re-wording

“Moreover, the almost all-encompassing economisation that seems to affect the overall quality and sustainability of medicine today can also be understood as a weakness for PT” – Great point

“As more focus is on price and economical competition as worse the quality of PT becomes for patients’ care and creates other negative influences in the value-based health approach”  – consider re-wording

“But also, physiotherapists as employees benefit from a human-centered orientation in terms of clinical quality and sustainability” – consider using ‘However’ instead

“The barriers to the acceptance of the dimensions, methods, strategies, and approaches relevant to the sustainability of PT have been initialized and reinforced in different ways.” – May need a reference for this sentence

“basic dimensions such as evidence, autonomy, clinical relevance, and some more” – consider re-wording

“The P2FM must be convinced as a hypothetical “thought model” to provide a clearer picture and orientation of a sustainable and worthy profession for the healthcare system to conscientious physiotherapists in different major sections (clinical, educational, managing).” – consider re-wording

Methods

by the author of this project over a period of the least 5 years. – last

Results

“Other answers were like” – consider re-wording

Discussion

“The concerns of some managers about the question of human-centered” – consider re-wording

“This argument does not argue against the need for human-centeredness” – consider re-wording

“One of the most important tasks of conscientious PT can be expected in the dimension of sustainability in terms of the environmental impact” – consider re-wording, possibly use “it’s” or re-word the sentence to make it more clear

Conclusion

“Thereby, the factors of identification and sustainability should always be respected” – Consider re-wording. Using the word ‘Thereby” implies a connection to the previous sentence, in this case, it may need to be more clear what you mean by this.
