Physical therapy standards of practice encompass a number of definitive skills that extend beyond clinical and practical practice. I believe that having a thoughtful and active understanding of the core values of the profession lays the foundation for exemplary patient management. Fortunately, we are given tools to aid in our endeavor towards competent care. The following four pieces highlight my ability to incorporate and implement a few of these tools into my habits as a clinician including: the patient client management model, evidence based practice, crticial thinking, and problem solving. These segments helped to solidify the idea that having a strong foundation is key to successful and well executed patient care.
