I am part of the Physical Therapy Club at my college and at one of our meetings we will be talking about the different types of PT settings. I am in charged of talking about 3 settings.

Which are:
1.) Skilled Nursing Facilities
2.) Home Health
3.) Hospice

We have to talk about the basics of each settings and what makes it different from the others. (For instance, SNF is a setting you are constantly interacting with other health care workers as opposed to home health where it is just you and the patient. Also, at SNF patients are usually sent from a stay at the hospital.) Basic information.

If you know of a good website, book, or anything that talks about these settings it would greatly appreciate it if you passed it on. I have been looking online and at youtube videos but I feel like they don't give me enough information.

Hi, I work in SNF for almost a decade now. Currently my place is considered a SNF but it is more of a specialized neuro rehab place. You learn to deal with different disciplines of health care providers in SNF. please check out a werbsite lifeofpt in order to get some more information on SNF settings for rehab place. I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any specific questions for SNF settings.
