In the second part of a two-part podcast, Susan Isernhagen, PT and COO of DSI Work Solutions offers insight on how physical therapists can provide work injury management and prevention solutions to employers and their employees.  Physical therapists who want to offer work injury management services should have the ability to perform job analysis, complete functional capacity assessments and understand ergonomics.  Listen now to learn more about ways physical therapists can get involved in providing work injury management and prevention services.
