MedBridge Elevates Expertise in Physical Therapy Specialties With Expanding Certification Prep Program Suite

SEATTLE, July 25, 2018 (Newswire.com) - MedBridge, an industry-leading developer of clinical education and patient engagement software, continues its successful contribution to clinical excellence among physical therapists with its growing Certification Prep Program suite. Just one year after launching the Neurologic Clinical Specialist (NCS) Certification Prep Program, 98 percent of clinicians that studied with MedBridge prep materials passed the 2018 NCS board exam.

The NCS Prep Program was released in 2017 to help distinguish physical therapists with advanced clinical knowledge, experience and skill in neurologic practice. MedBridge prep materials helped over 20 percent of all NCS exam takers receive passing scores this year.

It is very rewarding to see how our programs continue to help clinicians advance their careers and acquire skills needed to improve quality of care and outcomes in their organization.
