This video will help me in my paper on the variety of people that see a Physical

Therapist. This video is not as long as the first.

As I was starting to finish my personal interview with Bryan I realized how much dedication and

patience you need to be a Physical Therapist. As we talked more about what it takes to be a very caring

and sometimes aggressive professional to obtain the assertiveness that is needed to have the patients

understand that sometimes a little work will bring much relief and mobility.

This source will be very helpful to me since it has a vast amount of information on what Physical Therapist jobs consist of from their roles of being a provider for musculoskeletal conditions and many other conditions that ail many people from early child age to adults into geriatric age. This book will also provide me general information on the code of ethics that a Physical Therapist should follow at all times of practice under their state license.
