Clinical Decision Making for the Physical Therapist Assistant

Two instructors from the City University of New York discuss the factors that influence clinical decision making when administering thermal modalities, electrical stimulation, gait training, therapeutic exercise, prosthetic device practice, and geriatric physical therapy services. Treatment activities allow PTA students to read an evaluation, perform a treatment on a simulated patient, and answer questions related to decisions made during treatment.
