Therapists Are Encouraged to Register, Book Their Hotels, and Download the CSM App Now!

More popular than ever, The Combined Sections Meeting, or CSM, has decided to meet in a bigger venue this year, changing the location to sunny San Diego’s Convention Center, in the heart of the city. Therapists will be close to the Gaslamp Quarter, zoo and so much else that attracts California therapists to jobs in the Golden state. Physical therapists nationwide should be interested in registering for this year’s big event, expected to bring together more than 9,000 physical therapists for 4 days of programming and networking opportunities. Online registration is a snap via the APTA official site, where you can also download a printable application or call to register.

Why It’s worth it for Physical Therapists in these PT Specialties to Attend

More than just networking possibilities, CSM is also a wonderful opportunity for physical therapists to earn lots of continuing education credits—up to 2.2 CEUs per session. Here are the 18 physical therapy specialties covered by this year’s conference:

  • Acute Care
  • Aquatic Physical Therapy
  • Cardiovascular and Pulmonary
  • Clinical Electrophysiology and Wound Management
  • Education
  • Federal
  • Geriatrics
  • Hand Rehabilitation
  • Health Policy and Administration
  • Home Health
  • Neurology
  • Oncology
  • Orthopedics
  • Pediatrics
  • Private Practice
  • Research
  • Sports Physical Therapy
  • Women Health

For Therapists at CSM 2013, this Puts the “App” in Happy; Available for iPhones and Droids!

Since the conference will have so many speakers, special presentations, ceremonies and other events tied in with the American Board of Physical Therapy Specialties, attendees will want to keep it all straight without the scraps of paper and flyers weighing down their pockets.

Look for the American Traveler Allied Booth at CSM 2013!

Our consultants are eager to meet new physical therapists and help them learn more about a career in travel therapy or permanent allied healthcare jobs nationwide. Look for us in booth #638 during the CSM Meeting. We’ll be giving away water bottles and freshly baked cookies, and plan on having every bit as much fun this year as we have at CSM Meetings in the past. We’d love to see our physical therapists in all 50 U.S. states come out to San Diego and benefit from everything 2013’s CSM Meeting has to teach us. Not part of our family yet? Please feel free to call one of our consultants at 1-800-617-0608 for more information on working for American Traveler Allied, or simply apply online. See you in Cali!
