The call for comments on the Guide to Physical Therapist Practice is now closed. Thank you for taking the time to provide us with your feedback. Comments will be reviewed over the next two – three months.

APTA is updating the Guide to Physical Therapist Practice, which last went through revision in 2014 when the Guide moved to a web format.

A work group of APTA staff and members reviewed the current Guide content and drafted recommended updates based on current practice. It's time for a wide review from the profession, and your feedback is critical before the revisions proceed.

Additional information on next steps will be posted here as they become available.
