Idaho Bills

Amends existing law to clarify applicability of certain training requirements for nursing home administrators.

Amends existing law to revise provisions regarding dry needling by physical therapists.

The purpose of this legislation is to make a correction to the Physical Therapy Practice Act by allowing the Idaho Physical Therapy Licensure Board to approve the required courses for a physical therapist to practice dry needling. The current statute requires the courses be accredited by a national organization; however, no national organizations accredit courses in dry needling. This legislation will give the Idaho Board the authority to determine which courses meet their standards.
