Who We Are
We are a group of forward-thinkers who are passionate about making a positive impact on the Physical Therapy profession. We’re committed to addressing the evolution that our profession is experiencing as primary care, direct access providers. This shift has driven us to create a better way to deliver knowledge to you, wherever you are, whenever you need it. We've created a free app that delivers knowledge to PTs wherever they are, whenever they need it.
Remote PT Network is more than just an app; it's a community of PTs who are committed to making a difference. We hope you'll join us!
Why We're Here
The Remote Physical Therapy Network reinvents how PT professionals can consume knowledge in real time. RPTN gives you a targeted way to learn from, and teach, others. We believe that you can learn to teach but also teach to learn. Our system maximizes the retention of new clinical knowledge through short burst videos that we call VidBits. Join the movement — We all crave that one nugget we can use in practice Monday morning!
Where We're Going
We believe in strength in numbers, and knowledge in numbers. We believe in a world where connectivity creates community. RPTN connects you with other PT professionals to share your skills and experience in a simple, easy way that empowers us all to be better clinicians. Our vision is to build a highly engaged community with interests in managing musculoskeletal (MSK) disorders. From there, we look forward to expanding our membership community to include specialty certifications, private and group mentorship, and much more — all with goal to get you practicing at the top of your license.
Our Commitment to PTs and PTAs
We are committed to providing a community platform focused on helping you evolve as physical therapy clinicians. We promise to keep our network private and secure. Through our use of cutting-edge technology, we promise to monitor member content to be as clinically relevant as possible. We are at an inflection point in the evolution of our profession, and we will be there with you, every step of the way.
With our app, you'll have access to a wealth of knowledge and experience, all while being able to easily connect with other PTs who can provide support and guidance. Our PT group is the perfect community for physical therapy clinicians who are looking for a free, private, and secure network.
