Today is World Physiotherapy Day!

World Physiotherapy Day is celebrated on 8 September each year. It is a day to recognise the vital role #physiotherapists play in healthcare and the promotion of wellbeing. This year’s theme is healthy ageing, with a focus on preventing falls and frailty. To help prepare you for the day, World Physiotherapy has developed a toolkit.

You can also use resources on PEDro to learn about some of the research done in this area:

Evidence in your inbox for the ‘gerontology’ and ‘Continence and women’s health’ feeds
Learn how to ask a clinical question to search for research on PEDro
Watch one of the PEDro World-Wide Journal Clubs on falls
Read one of PEDro’s Top 25 Trials on falls and physical activity in older people.

Help us celebrate #WorldPTDay by sharing these materials.
