When I first saw this reference sheet on here I thought it would be a great resource to have for my first clinical experience! I really thought this would be a single laminated sheet with information on the front and in the back, but when i received and opened the pamphlet I was pleasantly surprised! The information is well organized under headings and easy to find. I think what I love best about this guide is that everything is extremely concise and the most important things that we would need to know are outlined. For example in the Neuro section, they go into the grading of reflexes and spasticity (things that aren't necessarily that easy for me to remember). I actually bought an additional 4 as gifts for some friends in my program as a Christmas gift! I will definitely update my review when I get their input/opinions on this quick reference guide! So far however, I think its great and I am extremely happy with my purchase!

Looks just like the picture. Easy to ready and laminated to keep it from getting wet or soiled

Highly recommend to any student who is looking for a reference guide!

Extremely small print

Has the essentials for a DPT to utilize! Good study tool

Perfect perfect perfect. Just what I needed. I am a current 3rd year student going out on final rotation and it is the perfect mix of information from general assessments to lab values to CVA signs/symptoms based on artery occluded. So much information in one handy little packet that I can carry at my rotation in case I need to know norms or special tests that I can’t quite remember fully!

Great laminating .Would last a long time

Hand PHYSIO booklet

In an effort to cram to much information into the available space the font size is so small that it is difficult to read let alone do a quick scan for a quick reminder of information

Has useful info

Good info

Good for quick review
