Help clients make informed decisions by providing supportable intervention options with objective data, consequences and recommendations.
As a PT, you are charged with knowing more than the client about what is available to accomplish a specific goal. A PT should not push his/her own agenda but rather be unbiased (as best one can) with recommendations.
Deal with fellow practitioners ethically, honestly and with integrity.
This is applicable to any profession. By taking the moral high road, those around you may not always agree with you but will respect you.
Give and get support and professional aid from colleagues.
This is another adage appropriate to any profession. Giving and asking for aid promotes relationship building and collegiality and helps to solidify a “team”.
Be systematic in the the evaluation of the process and results.
Edmund Burke, British statesman and philosopher (1729-1797) states,“Reading without reflecting is like eating without digesting." The same can be said of PT. Reflecting upon the processes and results allows one to correct shortcomings, if any, while building and improving upon successes.
