So I'm going to a PT Aide job next week and was wondering about what I should do before then to prepare me for the position. I know I should review my anatomy, but is there anything else that I should look over? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Helps to review some anatomy, but I really learned everything on the job. It's a pretty easy job, it took me a day or two to get comfortable setting up the ultrasounds, IFC and other modalities. So just dive right in, don't be afraid.
 
Learn on the job. No need to study.
 
I have been working as an aide in an outpatient orthopaedic clinic for a year now and I learned everything on the job. Although it might help if you have taken or currently taking anatomy and physiology or any exercise science class as it would help with some terminology and how to do some exercises.
