Implementation of Acute OB Physical Therapy Programs | Part 2

Please join the Student Special Interest Group and Pregnancy & Postpartum Special Interest Group for the second webinar of their series titled, "Implementation of Acute OB Physical Therapy." Part 2 will feature speakers from two institutions who have initiated inpatient OB PT programs and encountered barriers along the way.

Through a Q&A-style presentation, these speakers will share information on how they designed and navigated the implementation of acute OB physical therapy services at their respective hospitals, and they will discuss potential preparation/talking points that may be helpful to others hoping to implement similar programs.
