In receiving initial accreditation, the program demonstrated its commitment to educational standards and ethical business practices indicative of quality, accountability, and continuous improvement that enhances the physical therapy profession. Accreditation by ABPTRFE is a reliable indicator of the value and quality of the Residency Program.

Residency programs are not accredited by CAPTE. While our curriculum exists to prepare the residents for material covered on the Orthopaedic Certification Exam (we have a 100% first attempt pass rate on the ABPTS OCS exam), our residents leave with life-changing experiences that provide the foundation for a fulfilling career in leadership and outpatient orthopaedic physical therapy.ĪBPTRFE has granted Rehabilitation & Performance Institute, PSC and the University of Evansville Orthopaedic Residency initial accreditation for a period of 5 years through January 2024.

This program allows licensed physical therapists to advance their knowledge by incorporating classroom knowledge and psychomotor skills through face-to-face interaction, weekend intensives, online learning, and small-group discussions. Together with the University of Evansville, Rehabilitation & Performance Institute, PSC offers a 14-month physical therapy outpatient orthopaedic residency in our Owensboro, Kentucky location that allows you to participate in one-on-one mentored patient care with expert clinicians and caregivers in an outpatient orthopaedic setting.
