Season 5: Wrap Up with PCS Advantage

<p>Today is the final episode of the 5th season of the Pushing Pediatrics podcast! Sheila and Sara are welcoming guests Jessica Lewis, PT, DPT, PCS and Helen Carey, PT, DHSc, PCS, creators of the PCS Advantage, to help those of you in the home stretch of studying for the PCS exam. PCS Advantage is a prep course and study tool for those clinicians studying for the PCS exam, providing full practice exams and comprehensive study guides. Through the work of Jessica and Helen and the creation of PCS Advantage, they have helped hundreds of clinicians pass their exam! Sheila and Sara ask Jessica and Helen some critical questions you’ll want to hear the answers to if you’re taking the PCS in a few weeks! Topics like where to focus your studies in these last weeks, things TO do and things NOT to do as the exam date approaches, and several critical exam taking strategies. Good luck to those of you taking your PCS exam, and regardless of the outcome, you are an amazing PT. We will be back next season with more great episodes. And remember, you’ve got this! </p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://rehabknowledge.com/products/pcs-advantage/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">PCS Advantage: PCS Prep Course</a></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://pushingpediatrics.com/resources/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Resources</a> discussed in today’s episode can be found on our <a href="https://pushingpediatrics.com/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">website</a></p><p>Use code PUSHINGPEDS for $150 off your <a href="https://www.medbridge.com/?mbt_adcid=ga-879416070&amp;utm_term=medbridge&amp;utm_campaign=all-lobs_brand_all_all-aud_google_medbridge&amp;utm_source=googlead&amp;utm_medium=cpc&amp;hsa_acc=7977319469&amp;hsa_cam=879416070&amp;hsa_grp=44542342296&amp;hsa_ad=662177663417&amp;hsa_src=g&amp;hsa_tgt=kwd-303348066450&amp;hsa_kw=medbridge&amp;hsa_mt=p&amp;hsa_net=adwords&amp;hsa_ver=3&amp;gad_source=1&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQjwiuC2BhDSARIsALOVfBISCyYwlA-V2bEq4ozsXISMBzAMJypYXEbOXrmSa2vymF3TNkk6-kYaAmJVEALw_wcB" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Medbridge</a> subscription! </p><p><br /></p><p>Check out our <a href="https://pushingpediatrics.com/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">website</a>, and <a href="https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pushingpediatrics/subscribe" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">subscribe</a> for our subscription only episodes</p><p><br /></p><p>Follow us on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/pushingpediatrics/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a></p><p><br /></p><p>This episode was brought to you by the <a href="https://www.instagram.com/pivotballchange/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Pivot Ball Change</a> Network.</p>

Season 5: Pain 1

<p>Another incredible guest is on the Pushing Pediatrics Podcast this week! Dylan Gawinski Stern, PT, DPT, PCS joins the show to discuss pain, most specifically AMPS (Amplified Musculoskeletal Pain Syndrome). Persistent pain is a new “hot topic” that is testable material since hosts Sheila and Sara took their PCS exam, which is why they’ve invited an expert to review this topic. Dylan will share her experience working in the AMPS clinic, how to differentiate AMPS from CRPS (Complex Regional Pain Syndrome) as a provider, what the therapy evaluation process looks like for AMPS clinic patients, how to incorporate Trauma Informed Care, and more. This topic will be broken into two, digestible episodes, so be sure to tune in next week for the other half of our discussion on pain. </p><p><br></p><p>Dougherty BL, Zelikovsky N, Miller KS, Rodriguez D, Armstrong SL, Sherry DD.
