Strive to be a PT

This blog is a resource for anyone wanting to be successful as a PT. Just because you made it through school and have the education to do doesn’t mean you know everything to be successful. I’m betting they don’t teach you how to make your patients happy or how to juggle the paper work. This is what I like about it, because it seems to be a great resource to help me learn things I may not learn anywhere else.

What I don’t like about it is partly on me. I have an old computer and it’s a struggle for it to load each page. The blog uses a format that loads several articles side by side, it looks good, but I think this is what my computer is struggling with.

One interesting article is about how to deal with a bad review on your PT clinic. It gives the following list of steps; don’t overreact, read it again-with feeling, merit check, and respond. Basically, empathizes with the person and try to figure out if your clinic does have a problem that needs to be address, and of course let them know you heard them.

I know nothing about how to respond to negative reviews, didn’t even know there would be reviews to worry about. So I find this article very educational and I will take it to heart, but it that I learned there are more elements to be aware of as a PT and in its information.
