Hello! I just completed 20 online observation hours through ClinEdWeb's program. I'm not sure what to enter in OTCAS where they ask for facility info. Any advice? Thank you in advance :)
I am shadowing a PT for the first time this Monday and was wondering if anyone had any helpful tips or advice. I will be shadowing an outpatient that typically deals with sports rehabilitation for athletes. Any pointers or good questions to ask would be greatly appreciated thanks! :)
