Patient Education is Physiotherapy

Course Information

Physiotherapists provide patient education daily, but often times this does not result in changes in health outcomes or behaviour for patients. This may be due to the fact that physiotherapists do not know how to approach the multifactorial nature of patient education interventions. This presentation will provide participants with knowledge and skills to optimize their patient education interventions. 

This session was presented at the Canadian Physiotherapy Association (CPA) Congress 2021. 

Speaker

This award is in recognition of her excellence in teaching and strong research program.
