What changes when the physical therapist is not simply consulted after the medical workup—but serves as one of the first clinical decision-makers in the emergency department?
In fast-moving ED environments, clinicians need a clear framework for medical screening, red flag identification, rapid functional mobility assessment, and safe disposition decisions.
In Physical Therapists as Primary Providers in the Emergency Department, Shana Carter, PT, DPT, OCS, UDN-C, EDD, helps physical therapists build confidence in focused ED evaluations, interpreting vital signs and laboratory values, and determining the most appropriate next step for the patient.
Through case-based learning and evidence-informed clinical decision-making, this live webinar explores practical strategies that can support patient safety, efficient care, and stronger collaboration within the emergency department.
