D.P.T. Class of 2018 Shares the Impact of their Community Service Projects
|
The Doctor of Physical Therapy (D.P.T.) Class of 2018 in the School of Health Sciences and Practice shared the fruits of their community service projects with the NYMC community on December 1 in Nevins Auditorium. The community service projects, conducted over three semesters, help students develop the skills to plan, execute and assess an activity that addresses a local or underserved community need. For the first time this year, the projects were presented in an oral platform, rather than a poster presentation. Members of the D.P.T. Class of 2019 were in attendance to learn about the projects that they will ultimately pursue, providing continuity of the projects and building on their successes as well as lessons learned. Community service projects are carried out in three areas: the Race for Rehab, Global Outreach and Health and Wellness. View the D.P.T. Community Service Project Presentations photo gallery.
