How did everyone here do their shadowing?
As I am about to start my shadowing, I think such an important aspect of the pre-pt process often gets brushed aside. This topic is meant to (hopefully) be a source of reference for those applying and starting the Pt-shadowing/volunteering.
The following questions are just ideas of what an answer may include.
Did you have a journal you recorded it in, or was it all recorded on the computer?
Did you have it signed by the PT you shadowed?
Did you focus on small clinics or hospital settings? Sports rehab clinic or a long term care rehab?
How early did you start shadowing?
How did you develop a strong enough relationship with a PT to get a strong LOR?
Did you spread the hours out over the course of years, or grind through in a single summer?
Hopefully this sparks enough replies to be a good source of information, thanks!
