Congratulations to the physiotherapists for the world day. Extremely important profession in the rehabilitation process. @Cristianofisio1

[Cardiorespiratory & Critical Care Physios Group. @FisioRespiVH]

Today is the world #physio day! Still fighting against COVID but also taking care of our all patients. #physiotherapy is movement and movement is life! Physiotherapy must be implemented in better ratios in hospitals and obviously implemented in primary care. @ColFiCat @vallhebron

Sad that country which always talks about diversity and equality around the world still continues to discriminate based on country of birth instead of their skill set while allocating employment based green card. Talent always follows opportunity. Time to fix #legalimmigration

[Justin Elliott @JustinAdvocacy]

Many patients recovering from #COVID19 will need #physicaltherapy. Making cuts to health care during a pandemic doesn’t make sense. - that’s why we need Congress to #FightTheCut. Let’s make some noise and keep up the #PTAdvocacy! https://t.co/YaLMzfb58T

We’re approaching 40,000 letters to Congress (a good start), but we need to pick up the pace on comments to CMS. Urgently.

We need help from members and nonmembers, providers and patients … EVERYONE!

Send both letters here: https://t.co/xJEehqWnKG #PTAdvocacy
