APTA Sections (e.g., Orthopaedics, Pediatrics)

The American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) is made up of various sections that focus on specific areas of physical therapy practice. Each section, such as Orthopaedics or Pediatrics, represents a community of professionals who specialize in particular fields. They provide resources, support, and education to help members stay updated on best practices, research, and advancements for treating patients. This structure allows physical therapists to collaborate, share knowledge, and enhance their skills to improve patient care in their specialty areas.
