@OMPTGUY @OrthopaedicAPTA Agreed. Why is an exam necessary? Why not as an outcome of residency, a suffocatingly regulated, rigorous, structured program involving ongoing and frequent assessment and reflection…of didactic and clinical practice.
Great day one at @NAIOMT lumbopelvic course! Good discussions on early manual intervention, under dosing exercise, stability vs controlled mobility, and future of cash based PT!
@RedefineConEd An issue as old as time, prolonging a problem due to self-financial interests. An advocacy body engaging in regulation. Obvious conflict of interest. There is no logical stance for not having a single, national process. It’s corrupt. Thanks for shining a light!!. Brett W.
@PracticeMoving I've been working as a S&C coach alongside PTs for going on 18 years. This post defines the problem that permeates the PT field - an inability to appropriately assess capacity, determine initial loading, and properly grade progression. Underdosing has become normal.
Hi @NAIOMT family! See below. Great slate of candidates all around this ballot. I’d appreciate your vote and the opportunity to serve the Academy. Thank you.
I know the evidence is mixed on whether the GRE is inequitable. However, I’ll throw my anecdotal opinion as someone applying to HSR/Health Policy PhD programs this coming cycle who was born in Colombia, was undocumented for 13 years, low income parents, and 1st Gen 1/4
The @AAOMPT ballot is out. I am a Nominating Committee candidate and would appreciate your vote! Humbled to have the opportunity, and humbled to be running with amazing candidates! Good luck to all! #bettertogether
Today, @NAIOMT along with @messiah_univ submitted our SER to @APTAtweets ABPTRFE for our developing orthopedic physical therapy residency. A labor of learning & love. Thx to all, but especially Dr. Linda Csiza & Dr. Brett Windsor @Marathon_PT@PRNpt@Advancedkinetic Phoenix PT.
12yr old athletes in kinesio tape carrying their recovery bag containing a massage gun, foam roller, and compression sleeves, while having a weekly cupping/needling session is a pretty clear sign that adults are doing it all wrong for their long term athletic development. #gym
@ptreviewer One of the problems is that this process is codified in so many state regs and statutes. Makes change very difficult. ProCert was a start towards sanity, but it collapsed under its own weight…so we’re back to the mercy and INSANITY of individual state boards…
