I have been very excited about this interview for quite some time with Dr. Mary Frances Roebuck PT, DPT. Mary Frances is a PT in New York City and works with dancers! She is also my former colleague from South College DPT school. She was gracious enough to provide pictures from classes she teaches as…
When I started this current home health assignment, my friend Kristen told me to ask about if the company provides a home health kit. This is a GREAT question to ask during interviews as well as if they have recommendations for what to pack in the kit. My company told me they were planning on…
Now that I have been working my first home health assignment for a whopping 1.5 months, I’m basically a pro. Totally kidding, however, I have learned how to prepare for potential HH interviews! Let’s start with “why home health?” Listen, literally 4 months ago I was telling my recruiter “any setting other than home health.”…

I never thought I would become so passionate about the legislative side of physical therapy, but here we are. I even did an interview with Dr. Mercedes Aguirre, PT, DPT (@theptadvocate) on the issue. This concept seems so logical and simple to execute on a national level in order to make licensing for PTs and…
Moreso the Covid unit. Even the covid unit isn’t full of strictly covid patients either. Confused yet? Well, I promise you will be by the end of this post. Let me start by saying that the rules/protocols were changing everyday, and they are still changing now. So something I say now, could easily be different…
My biggest concern going into travel was housing. Planning stresses me out and does NOT come naturally to me, unlike my mother. Also, making decisions on housing just STRESSES me out.
