AB  - Ethical  guidance  is  not  static.  Ethical  demands  on  therapists  have  changed  as  practice  demands  have  changed.  With  direct  access  in  all  50  jurisdictions  and  the  District  of  Columbia,  the  Code  of  Ethics  was  reviewed  for  its  applicability  to  today’s  more  complicated  practice  demands.  It  was  determined  that  the  Code  of  Ethics  no  longer  provided  adequate  guidance  to  practitioners  facing  more  ethical  issues  as  a  result  of  more  independent  practice.  A  complete  revision  was  adopted  by  the  House  of  Delegates  of  the  American  Physical  Therapy  Association  (APTA)  and  it  went  into  effect  on  July  1,  2010  (APTA,  2010).
