Patient education


Anyone have a good resource for pt ed that is rehab focused? My facility had some really good pt handouts, but the info is really outdated now. We are currently reviewing our education and are having trouble finding easy to understand pt ed.

Take what the facility has, use the 'priceless' information, clip art for photos, and online research for newer information. Then make the form yourself, listing the refrences on the bottom in a footnote."adapted from type footnote.

The only forms that are free, are the ones you create. Otherwise you need to invest in a book.
I have
