First, do no harm. Reduce community exposure by cancelling non-urgent/emergent F2F visits, sign up to help our colleagues on the front lines (ER, acute, long term and critical care units), do tele-Rehab whether or not you get paid; step up in times of crisis, that’s what we do.
Across the world, HCPs have taken varying precautionary measures to #FlattenTheCurve. In general, when there is an opportunity to practice social distancing, we encourage HCPs to do so. Also, “first do no harm” suggests HCPs should weigh risks of providing care versus not. 1/2

CMS did listen to reason on the PTA modifier policy, adopting all of APTA’s recommended changes, which makes their inaction and lack of explanation on flawed payment cuts all the more confusing.

APTA is extremely disappointed that the physician fee schedule final rule will cut physical therapist payment in 2021, with no rationale or response from CMS to thousands of letters opposing the cuts. These cuts are a dire threat to patient access and safe alternatives to pain.

If you struggle with anxiety and depression you're not alone. I've been on #TeamWellbutrin for a very, very long time and there's no shame in that. #WorldMentalHealthDay

This study highlights an important point- we don’t lose most of our muscular strength due to the aging process, we lose most of it bc we stop strengthening it. We need to continue to highlight the differences between effects of the aging process & sedentary lifestyle/diseases

Danielle, it was SO great to meet you! Physical therapists are going to be key to helping us address the pain management crisis that lead to the opioid crisis. There are many better alternatives to opioids for many people/ diagnoses, and therapists can help!

Too many people are harmed by the impacts of poverty & we must address it so every one of our neighbors can thrive. Yesterday, the Task Force on Poverty & Opportunity held our first meeting. I cannot wait to put forth anti-poverty initiatives for #13thDistrictStrong & our nation!

I've lived with a man who shouldn't have had a gun, and I've lived with a man who was a responsible gun owner. I understand this issue well and am not trying to take away anyone's guns.
LISTEN: Senator Amy Klobuchar and Congresswoman Debbie Dingell explain why it’s crucial that Congress protect women over the interests of the NRA and reauthorize the Violence Against Women Act. #VAWA @SenAmyKlobuchar @RepDebDingell
