Comment on the physiotherapist's SoP: I love the part about 
"physiotherapists shall confine themselves to clinical diagnosis and 
management of those aspects of physiotherapy in which they have been 
educated and which are recognized by the profession etc.  It's a great 
paragraph and we need to model LC SoP after it!

Basically I think you must follow the SoP unless you have another mrdical 
degree (MD, DO, PA, NP, RN's only get to use nursing dx which is another 
whole caboodle of double talk)  Wearing 2 or 3 hats gets confusing, doesn't 
it?

I guess we could all write IBLCE and resign our credentials that we have 
worked so hard for :-( unless they immediately rescind the new SoP and go 
back to the old one for the time being until this gets ironed out.  That is 
what I am seriously considering.  That fancy certificate is now a worthless 
piece of paper as far as I'm concerned.  Pat in SNJ
