Physical Therapist Assistant
I completed my 2-week and 7-week clinical practicum at this company where I was able to gain the knowledge and experience of muli-tasking within a broad orthopedic and woman/pelvic health setting. I was able to show my abilities in being hardworking and adaptable with the opportunity to work independently in patient care planning. This clinic allowed me to work with general orthopedic conditions, chronic pain, post-op, neuro, and pelvic health patients. Techniques I was able to utilize consisted of muscle energy techniques, joint mobilizations, postural assessments, modalities, MLD/lymphatic drainage, biofeedback for pelvic health patients, soft tissue massage for orthopedic and breast cancer patients, ROM, KT tape application, scar mobilizations, VOR for neuro patients, Tai Chi for fall prevention class, and other useful techniques. EMR systems used at this clinic; WebPT and Raintree.
