Video Website for Physiotherapists

Interesting. I just came across a new video/podcast website for physical therapists. How fortuitous! In the upcoming PABC newsletter (Summer 2008) “Directions”, I mention the proliferation of physiotherapy videos on sites like YouTube and VideoJug. Based in Atlanta, Georgia, The “Physical Therapy Channel” is modeled on YouTube, and features demonstrations of treatment techniques, rehabilitation products, software demonstrations, rehabilitation facility tours, interviews with physical therapists and other healthcare related disciplines, online in-services, operating room surgeries, and a host of other unique content from the physical therapy industry. According to the site. “all users will have the ability to subscribe, listen, view, upload and share physical therapy videos and podcasts on our website.” Content is created by physical therapists, and the site is to be “a community for media sharing among physical therapists, students, educators, other healthcare disciplines, and rehabilitation product vendors”. It promises to provide videos and podcasts covering all aspects of the physical therapy industry.” There’s not much there yet, but I’m curious about how a website like this will be used by PTs?
