Publisher's Synopsis
As a a new physical therapist, what do you do when your patient arrives to therapy in an intoxicated state? What do you do when your patient needs more therapy, but their insurance wont allow it? How do you deal with a patient who is romantically interested in you? These are just a few real-world scenarios that you will encounter as a new physical therapist. The solutions to these challenging scenarios do not exist in text books, cannot be taught in classes, and can only be created by the physical therapist involved in the scenario. Years of clinical experience is generally the primary requirement for a physical therapist to create effective solutions to these kind of clinical scenarios, and this places a new physical therapist at a disadvantage due to their lack of clinical experience. However, for the first time, veteran physical therapists throughout the United States have contributed hundreds of years of clinical experience, and consolidated it in this book to help new physical therapists create their own solutions...without the required years of experience. This is the only book of its kind available on the market. A new physical therapist or a PT student preparing to start clinical rotations will need this book.
