109: PPTA's Reactions on Burning Issues and Questionable PT Practices

Welcome to part two of our conversation with some of the Philippine Physical therapy association's board of officers, Michael Gabilo, PTRP, DHPEd, Juan Doco, PTRP, Christian Rimando, PTRP, MSPT, Lily Bautista, PT, DPT, PTRP, and Patrick Bonnevie, PTRP, MRS.

In this last part of the conversation, we focused on some of the issues that were raised and emerged in a physical therapy group forum. We asked about the boards' insights and stand issues like unlicensed practitioners hired in a physical therapy setting, physical therapy graduates providing physical therapy services, and fee splitting. The officers also emphasized physical therapy values that need to be embodied in our practice like active involvement, advocacy, being inspired, professional accountability and responsibility, and self-worth as a PT. Let's listen to the conversation after this short break.
