Class Update Spring edition
The class completed their first internship in early February and it was an amazing experience for all. They were excited to share what it was like and how they felt practicing as student PTs in the Ontario healthcare system. Under the supervision of a registered physiotherapist, they collaborated with team members to further develop competence in communications, documentation and to consolidate fundamental assessments, analysis and treatment skills. Term 2 started and specialty practice areas of focus included pediatrics, oncology, amputation and burns across the continuum of care. The unit ended with a week of labs where they practiced skills in these focused areas. We’re thankful for the many patient volunteers and clinicians who came out to teach and share their knowledge and expertise by creating an enriched learning environment. The class is more confident and excited as they start their six week internship. Once the internship ends, they’ll be back for their final onsite days to engage in transition to workplace activities and wrap up of the program.
