Government Announces Plans to Expand Physiotherapy Scope of Practice: More Info to Come

Share

Today, the Ontario Ministry of Health announced future scope of practice expansions for several regulated health professionals, including physiotherapists.  

The Ministry has directed the College of Physiotherapists of Ontario to start developing the regulatory framework to support qualified physiotherapists in ordering certain X-rays and a diagnostic ultrasound.  

The College welcomes this announcement, and we look forward to sharing more information as it becomes available.  

No changes to scope of practice have been made yet.  

We thank the Ministry of Health and the Ontario Physiotherapy Association for their ongoing collaboration. Please continue to check our website, newsletters and social media for updates.
