The NYMC community demonstrated exceptional generosity during Giving Tuesday on November 28, raising more than $76,300 from 81 donors making it NYMC’s most successful campaign since its inception in 2012. Matching funds were provided by Alan D. Dauer, M.D. '62, Ronald P. Gregoire, M.D. '74, and the NYMC Board of Advisors. "We are so grateful for the spirit of generosity of our donor base, including friends and alumni of NYMC. With the expansion of our Clinical Skills and Simulation Center, our students and residents will now have further access to task trainers and additional learning tools, giving them the edge in their medical training to become extraordinary future healthcare professionals," said Bess J.

Third-year students in the D.P.T. Program performed fitness and wellness consultations for adults (age 19 and up), children (age 6-18) and seniors as part of their physical therapy in preventative health care and wellness course.  Three days of consultations helped the students integrate their physical therapy examination, evaluation and intervention knowledge and skills into screening for prevention and holistic wellness for kids, adults and seniors in the community. Following their sessions with the volunteers, they were mentored on consultative writing and provided an individualized wellness report to the guests to inform and educate them on their findings, offer support and validation of what they are currently doing, or referred them to an appropriate health care practitioner for follow-up to optimize their health status and prevent future problems. Adult fitness evaluations were led by Tina Welsome, D.P.T., M.S., PT, MTS, OCS, CFMT, assistant professor of physical therapy, pediatric fitness evaluations were led by Yelina Bregman D.P.T., clinical instructor of physical therapy and senior fitness evaluations were led by Nikki Gawronski, D.P.T., PT, GCS, CEEAA, assistant professor of physical therapy.
