Are you an educator managing a physical therapy program at your university? Do you feel like you do not have enough time to incorporate women’s health content or that there aren’t enough clinical experience opportunities for your students to get through exposure to this field? Do you wish that people would stop associating pelvic health only with women and that men, women, transgender, children and elderly can be treated for pelvic concerns? This education packet is intended to provide a resource for graduate educators responsible for women’s health content in a physical therapy program. The goal of this toolkit packet is to provide information of scholarly resources for academicians and educators teaching women’s health in physical therapy programs.
