Description:

Preparing questions (3-5) at the synthesis and analysis level of objectives for Ortho/Musculoskeletal Pediatric PT Practice, with intent/purpose of study/practice for physical therapists preparing for the PCS Prep exam.
 
We are a PCS Prep Committee made up of practitioners from varied pediatric PT practice expertise. We write practice questions for our various advocacy efforts including a PCS Prep course in January that has practice questions geared toward clinical reasoning for practicing in a group-based learning environment. 
 
We as a group, feel the ortho/musculoskeletal area is an area where we do not have as much practice experience and would appreciate having some assistance from other experienced practitioners.
 
For purpose of this practice experience, questions need to be case-based and with 5 multiple choice response choices. We need 1-2 references per question along with rationale for each question response (whether correct or incorrect).
 
Please reach out if further questions!
Certified Pediatric Specialist (ABPTS Board Certification)
Item writers for ABPTS are restricted from participation.
