If asked, most physical therapists and other health care providers would acknowledge that they want to provide their patients with the most effective and highest quality care available. Although we would certainly expect this altruistic attitude of others as well as ourselves, the unfortunate reality is that most patients don?t receive the care they need.1, 2 How can the gap between what our patients need versus what they actually receive be bridged? The answer is evidence-based practice (EBP).This multi-level course (with a nautical theme that will become obvious) is designed for physical therapists who need a basic introduction to the principles of EBP as well as those who want to ?take it to the next level? and improve their current EBP knowledge and skill-set.1.

OCS Test Prep Course
The OCS Test Prep Course is now available! This course is designed to provide a structured, customized method of studying for the American Board of Physical Therapy Specialties (ABPTS) Orthopedic Certified Specialist (OCS) examination. The heart of this course is more than 200 questions similar in format and content to the questions asked on this challenging examination. Students start the course by taking a pre-test to establish areas of weakness. Areas of weakness are then improved with a combination of feedback on each question missed as well as short web based lectures and easily digestible content to allow focused and efficient improvement in those areas that need it most. Innovative Flash based testing software by articulate allows missing a question to become a learning experience in itself as answer level feedback instructs the student on why the incorrect answer is wrong (or gives more information about correct answers). The course is completed with the passing of a timed post-test, although all of the course content remains available to the student until after the OCS examination test date. This course does more than provide testing to allow efficient study. Students will find more than 300 links to EIM presentations, short topic reviews, web based resources and other useful items. All of these links are organized in an innovative 'mind-map' format that allows for organized and efficient preparation. EIM is excited to offer this high tech, innovative approach to learning that leverages the capabilities of the internet to create a truly unique learning environment. An infomercial and free trial are available here.
