WHAT’S INSIDE
Chapter 1: Ethical Issues and Decision Making 2nd Edition (Mandatory) [5 CE Hours] This course provides physical therapists and physical therapist assistants with an updated primer on the study of ethics and ethical behaviors as they apply to physical therapy practice. The course is designed to help clinicians effectively and efficiently integrate ethical decision making into their clinical practice. Chapter 2: ACL Injury, Surgery, and Rehabilitation: A Science-Based and Evidence-Informed Approach 24 [2 CE Hours] 1 Given the modifications and advancements in ACL surgical procedures and the proliferation of research on interventions and outcomes, many clinicians find it difficult to keep apprised of the latest evidence and integrate this new information into their clinical practice. Decisions regarding which patients are appropriate for non-operative management of an ACL-deficient knee, how to safely progress patients through a criterion-based guideline, and when to provide recommendations for a safe return back to sports after ACL injury or reconstruction are challenging. Physical therapists and physical therapist assistants will be able to use the knowledge and skills outlined in this course with their patients after ACL injury or surgery to maximize patients’ responses to exercise at their current functional level while minimizing risk of injury to the healing tissue(s). Chapter 3: Plantar Fasciitis: Diagnosis and Treatment 63 [1 CE Hour] The purpose of this course is to educate physical therapists about the most successful evaluation and treatment techniques available at this time. This course will cover the function of the plantar fascia, differential diagnosis of plantar fasciitis, special tests used, the most common risk factors to develop plantar fasciitis, a review of the most effective treatments and case studies to demonstrate practical application.
