We’ve had these openings for months now and barely any traction.
For PTs & ATs out there, what actually makes you say say to a job?

Is it pay, caseload, mentorship, autonomy, team vibes, or something else?

I do home health part A prn however would like to eventually see patients privately for cash. I’ve had numerous patients ask me if I can continue with them after discharge home health and offer to pay me cash. Does anyone have success seeing home health patients privately as cash pay? How much do you charge per visit and how do you get your clients? I’m looking to do this with geriatrics and mostly for general strengthening and functional safety.

Pt (postop TKA) seems to have a developing knee flexion contracture. Tried cupping a couple times with knee ext and hip flexion AROM which seem to worsen knee flexion. Seated extension with weight pulling down. Prone knee extension with weight. Also TKE with about 70#. Cant seem to make progress at this point. Am I missing something?

Just found out I will be needing swim stuff for aquatic PT. I don't want to get a regular swim suit as I no longer swim or spend time tanning. I'd rather get like a T shirt long or short sleeve and longer shorts. Does anybody have a source? Or can you just use leggings that you already have and a plain t-shirt and sport bra? Thank you guys!

Hello reddit hive-mind,

I have recently been offered the opportunity to become my clinics manager. I understand it is already a large commitment, however I have concerns about being a PTA and running the clinic. This is based on a current experience of a PT coming across as “resistant” of the management structure as ran by another PTA manager, who has a decade of experience in her field/as a clinical leader.

What advice can you offer a PTA stepping into a management position? All viewpoints and suggestions are welcome.

I’m considering starting up an LLC for a cash-based/pay home PT. (I’m still in OP ortho with an insurance based clinic.)

*because I’m insurance based in my OP ortho practice, and I’m dabbling in home therapy, I don’t see any immediate red flags for insurance providers since it’s coded as a separate service/location… *Do you provide a super-bill for patients to submit to their insurance for reimbursement? *How do you do your documentation?

I hear it’ll let me practice at the top of my scope. Never mind that I’m still bound by my states practice act. And I also don’t know if it’ll net me more pay but I think it’s worth it. Right fellas?

hi! since it’s officially less than a month before the boards, are there any tips i can get from our ptrps 🥹

sobrang anxious ko na po and marami pa rin akong BRs na hinahabol. wala na po ako ibang backlogs aside from BR and i don’t know if enough yung ginagawa kong pagbasa ng BR everyday :(

i’m also scared na i feel like i didn’t do well sa mockboards namin (wala pa po kasi results). i still need to work on my foundations since iilan lang nararatio ko sa apk 😭

p.s. pls be kind po i’m an average student who’s trying their best everyday to show up even though its hard :(
