https://t.co/qYJcs79qpY This site has been super helpful for coming up with home program ideas for my patient in neuro clinic. Will definitely be using it more in the future. #csulbdpt

We were talking about possible source of LBP in class last week...not sure anyone thought to list the pelvic floor in the hypothesis list! #csulbdpt

[PelvicSanity @NicoleCozeanDPT]

Did you know that your #pelvicfloor may be the cause of your #lowbackpain? Check out my interview with FemFusion Fitness on YouTube! https://t.co/by1kZbFx7p

Great to see advocates for the profession. This is what we need to be doing all the time! #csulbdpt

Sharing my passion for physical therapy with 8th graders. #ChoosePT

@samgriffithsDPT Great point and another positive for these models! I definitely think those are things that we should be doing in PT and in health care in general. #SG #dpt770

[Rachel Foust, SPT @RachelFoust_SPT]

Medical home models have a big focus on evidence based medicine. I find this to be a positive over accountable care organizations. What do you guys think? #dpt770

[Rachel Foust, SPT @RachelFoust_SPT]

@rachel_roesgen California does have their own definition for medical home models! Their emphasis, however, is actually aligned with the NCQA definition which promotes the standard for patient centered medical home models! #RR #dpt770

@Olivia_Maiocco individual that they are treating. Start with evidence based interventions and then use what is available! Always treat the individual and do what works for them. There is so much variation between patients. #dpt770 #OM

[Rachel Foust, SPT @RachelFoust_SPT]

@Olivia_Maiocco Hey #OM! I definitely have seen interventions that don't have strong evidence but seem to benefit the patient. For example, I've seen a lot of cupping techniques used, that patients seem to swear by! My personal belief is that PTs should use what works for the specific...

I may be busy with school all day tomorrow but that didn't stop me from sending in my absentee ballot. Make the time and make sure your voice is heard. #csulbdpt #Midterms2018

Don't forget that PT can help with more than just physical injuries. #csulbdpt

[World Physiotherapy @WorldPhysio1951]

Get Active. Stay Active. Talk to a physical therapist about using physical activity and exercise to help improve mental health #WorldMentalHealthDay

@rachel_roesgen Is the certification a test they have to take? If so, will it be the newly established AT board who writes the test in order to ensure that it is at an appropriate level to ensure AT's are well qualified? #csulbdpt #dpt770 #RR

Excited to be volunteering at the LA @RunRocknRoll half marathon this Sunday. I'll be in the main medical tent and can't wait to get my feet wet with a little emergency sports medicine #csulbdpt

[Rachel Foust, SPT @RachelFoust_SPT]

The opioid epidemic is a serious problem in this country and we, as PTs, can help do something about it. Advocating for our profession and making sure people are well-informed is part of our duty. #choosept #csulbdpt

PT students out there making a difference! Won't ever get tired of seeing stories like this. Happy national physical therapy month! #csulbdpt

And we’re off! Tessa is taking her newly customized Go-Baby-Go car for a spin at #APTANSC. Student handy work in motion! 👍

Another great example of PT making a difference, this time in a patient with Parkinson's. #csulbdpt

@JamieTanSPT @ReillyRetzSPT #JT if some clinics are only seeing their patients for 15 minutes do you really think the quality of care would be maintained? I find it hard to believe that I could help a patient just as effectively in 15mins vs 40mins. What do you think? #csulb #dpt770

[Rachel Foust, SPT @RachelFoust_SPT]

@etidwell15 I agree that those wait times could definitely increase with a single-payer system. Do you think the quality of care would be affected too? #et #csulbdpt #dpt770

[Rachel Foust, SPT @RachelFoust_SPT]

A fellow student recently introduced me to this podcast, @ptinquest. They do a great job of discussing journal articles in a way that holds your attention easily. #csulbdpt
