R. Brandon Smith recommends the closure of outpatient physical therapy clinics during the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Outpatient Physical Therapy's Poor Response To COVID-19 - Closure is My Recommendation I recommend you close your doors but if you stay open - follow the CDC and WHO Guidelines and PPE precautions I know many won’t close hence why video was made Also I know masks have been shown to not be as effective as an N95 but they have been shown to reduce exposure for those at risk. Overall stay safe and protect yourself, your staff, and your patientsWhy it's here
