PT school gives you the science. What to actually do, when a two-year-old will not cooperate, a parent is watching your every move, and your CI is waiting for you to take the lead, comes on rotation. The Pediatric PT Playbook was written for that exact moment.
This is not a textbook. It is the clinical companion you wish existed before day one of your pediatric rotation.

It effectively integrates the child, their family, and the impact of the environment in participation, aligning perfectly with the ICF-CY framework. By presenting a clear sequence of core concepts, it serves as an essential resource for helping students understand further responsible clinical decision-making in pediatric practice.
I can't imagine not having this on my Pediatric PT internship. Amazing to prep with and have handy. My CI liked it as well.
