@erin_kabance They found that goal-setting was a predictor of activity. What a great reason for PT to be involved to help set goals and reach them! #PT582

@JBarbosaSPT What do you think of Renfro saying: "...PTs are paid based on illness and injury. We're not paid to keep people fit"? Can our views change?

@HaleyHuttonPT Definitely! Especially agree since I have seen many Rxs for PT to treat "generalized deconditioning" for elderly pts. Great find! #PT582

@bp389 @NAUPT582 Nice find! Cool to see that more HC professions aside from PT (in this case nursing) are interested in answering similar questions! #PT582

@adh1218 Interesting that they looked at a supplement. Do you think this is a good alternative to educating on food to support overall health?

@sarahkholmgren Absolutely! Just like any pt, our older patients need to feel their preferences are integrated into their treatment program! #PT582

@ajh497 Interesting! Since power is helped by exercises like plyo, how might you target power in an older pt who may have limitations? #PT582

@CODYCHANGSPT @NAUPT582 A great resource for PTs to keep in mind the social influences on our older patients. Awareness could determine success w/ our treatment!

@Crock4dS I love this! Pts with dementia are very often dismissed as if they are a lost cause...Do you think evidence like this could change that?

@katie_goldsack Interesting to look at it from a Neuropsychology perspective! Do you think pts would be receptive to info on how exercise affects the brain?

@ShelMar314 I totally agree! It seems to increase confidence with many pts, which opens so many more doors for rehab potential! #PT582
