Message from the Chair
Kyle Hewson, PT, EdD
On behalf of the faculty, staff, and students of the Physical Therapy Program at Stony Brook University, I welcome you to read through our 2021 newsletter. And what a year it has been! The COVID-19 pandemic has affected each of us personally and professionally. I read recently from a health care provider about some essential life components: positive social connections, life enjoyment, self-care, productivity, and regular physical activity. As PTs, we know how each of these are driven by inner motivation and life purpose. Many of us have struggled because our life balance has been so interrupted and we have, in a way, lost our identity, the way we do things in our life that help us help others. The phrase "new normal" has been used often, and may truly reflect the fact that some things have changed for good. Maybe trusting your direction, where ever you are placed, and rediscovering the way to be your best self there is how we need to look at life now!
There have been so many people in our local community, state, and nation who have gone above and beyond their job responsibilities during this time. The first group of people that come to mind have been our Stony Brook physical therapy alumni working in the outpatient setting, learning how to facilitate telehealth sessions by providing demonstrations and education. The second group are those who care for acutely ill patients recovering from COVID-19, including those who took part in inter-professional teams of care tasked with the difficult job of proning to help keep patients with COVID-19 alive. Lastly, are our clinical instructors, who, despite having changes to their caseload, were able to incorporate our students into their schedules and continue to guide them to learn and be successful during these hard times! We extend our sincere gratitude to all who supported our students, program and every patient in your care. We cannot train the next generation without you!
The contents of this newsletter provides insight about many individuals in our program working to make an impact in the world. Please read below about our two current Stony Brook University scholarship recipients, our students and alumni who serve in the military, and the community service performed by faculty and students for the Global PT Day of Service. We are especially proud of Drs. Lauren and James Pierre-Glaude, who are featured in the faculty spotlight. Congratulations are in order for Dr. Nancy Krisch, and we extend our best wishes to Dr. Jamie Greco in her new position! We also acknowledge the continued scholarly work of the faculty, including those presenting virtually this month in CSM. We miss seeing you in person this February, but will get together next year! I am wishing you a healthy and peaceful 2021.

One of Our Most Humble and Altruistic Alumni...
Brady Patrick Dolan Enlists!
Class of 2016
In 2012, my wife was soon to give birth to our first child and we were both extremely excited. As we laid in bed one night, she came across an article, titled, "Please Help Us Save Our Daughter. It's Truly A Matter Of Life Or Death." As we continued to read, we learned the parents of a young girl were desperately trying to find a living-donor for their daughter, Grace. She was diagnosed with choledochal cysts and sclerosing cholangitis and, although she was very sick and only given weeks to live, her MELD score remained low, meaning she did not quality as a cadaver liver recipient. Grace's parents were told that she needed a living-donor liver transplant as soon as possible to survive, because by the time her MELD score was high enough to qualify her, she would be within 72 hours of death.
With the anticipation of our soon to be born son, I tried to put myself in the shoes of Grace's parents and felt their pain. If my child was in a similar situation, I would want someone to come forward and help. The next morning, I called Yale New Haven Hospital and, three weeks later, I was under the knife. Being able to meet Grace and her family was a remarkable occasion. To be able to see the impact I made in their family provides a feeling like no other and something that will always remain special to me. I keep in touch with Grace's family and am happy to report that Grace is doing very well. She recently graduated top of her class at Notre Dame University with a degree in engineering.
As with most people in our profession, I find helping others and giving back to the community to be very rewarding. I always had a desire to serve my country, so, after graduating from PT school, I met with an Army recruiter and, shortly after, commissioned into the US Army. I went through my initial entry-training at Ft. Sill, Oklahoma, followed by Officer Basic Course at Ft. Sam, Houston, TX. I was then stationed at Ft. Benning, GA, and, soon after, deployed for a year to Afghanistan. My role in Afghanistan involved getting our soldiers healthy so they could return to the fight, and overseeing the evacuation of US personnel who tested positive for COVID-19. It was an amazing experience and, without a doubt, the highlight of my career thus far. While I was deployed, I was accepted into the military's Musculoskeletal Residency Program and given permission to participate in the course remotely. I hope to complete my training in the residency program within the next 4 months and, then, sit for the ABPTS OCS examination. My time in the Army has pushed me well beyond my comfort zone; it has been extremely rewarding and has helped shape me into the person I am today. I am very thankful for the opportunities it has provided to me and my family.

Stony Brook Joins Global PT Effort to Serve Our Community
Sharon Martino Organizes a Blood and Food Drive
|
| |

410 pounds of food to LI Cares
|
For years, Stony Brook faculty member, Dr. Sharon Martino, has taken the initiative to organize faculty, friends and students in community service efforts for the Global PT Day of Service initiative. This year, she coordinated the annual Stony Brook DPT Program Blood Drive, with 31 units of blood collected due to her efforts and the efforts of our very generous blood donors! Sharon also supervised students at Stony Brook in collecting donations for the NYPTA's Global Day of Service Food Drive. Rachel Zimmerman organized DPT students with the help of classmates, Ashtyn Muzio, Nicholas Ferraro and Juliette Cruz, to deliver the 410 pounds of food collected at the Stony Brook Health Science Center and Southampton Campus from generous contributors. The Long Island District's initiative also raised $793 of online contributions for Long Island Cares - The Harry Chapin Food Bank! Big thanks to Sharon Martino who organized these community service initiatives and, also, to everyone who so generously donated to these very worthy causes.
The Global PT Day of Service is a world-wide movement that originated in 2015, to encourage physical therapists to organize and participate in service activities within their communities during October, National Physical Therapy Month. It began with an idea from one physical therapist, Efisa Guobadia, involved in service work in Peru, and has evolved into an annual event driven by an initial eight volunteers and a growing list of ambassadors from around the world. The inaugural event in 2015 involved over 3,700 participants from 28 countries and all 50 states in the U.S., and raised over $750,000 for charitable organizations.

Alan Kong Memorial Scholarship Recipients
Alan Kong enrolled as a student in Stony Brook's DPT Program in 2012. After his first year 
in the program, he was diagnosed with a rare cancer and, after a long and hard-fought battle, passed away in 2015. His classmates established a scholarship fund in his name at their convocation ceremony in 2015, where Alan posthumously received the Award for General Excellence. The Alan Kong Memorial Scholarships were awarded to two deserving third-year DPT students this year, Alyson Lauda and Alyssa Clemente.
 Alyssa Clemente
On December 7, 2012, in an office for my interview for the Stony Brook Physical Therapy Program, I enthused over the field of physical therapy and the patients that I saw make varying strides in my volunteer experiences. I half-jokingly commented, "I wish I could've had physical therapy." One of my interviewers, Dr. Bob Streb, laughed and said, "No, that's not something you wish for." A year after that interview, on December 6, 2013, in the midst of prep for finals week as a first-year Stony Brook PT student, I was hit by an SUV on my walk to my apartment from the HSC library, and I sustained a traumatic brain injury.
My PT journey has been a far cry from the typical 3-year journey that the vast majority of PT students go through. I went through a year-and-a-half-long medical leave immediately after my accident, during which I completed physical therapy (careful what you wish for!), and occupational and speech therapy, as well as a second medical leave in 2019. Over the years, I have continued to push forward, the only direction I have my eyes set on. I leave my doubts and feelings of discouragement to the side - or I try to - as I study with and work alongside brilliant classmates.
This scholarship is a wonderful way to pay tribute to the sweet soul that was Alan Kong. Even though I was still on my medical leave, my classmates invited me to a Halloween party the year before his passing, and this party was the first and only time I met and spoke with Alan. We had heard about each other and our stories, and we both expressed admiration for what the other was pushing through. We talked about Stony Brook's great support and our fight to get through a rigorous program, in spite of our adversities. We laughed over his "Where's Waldo" outfit and my lady bug costume. His sweet, happy personality left such a mark on me, and while that night made for some fun memories with good friends, what I am most grateful for on that evening is that I got to meet Alan. We maintained contact thereafter when we became Facebook friends. My time knowing Alan Kong was short but impactful.
Whether or not they know my story, classmates over the years have remarked on my general "positivity." From those who do know my story, I have been told that I am strong and determined. With what I have experienced so far, I can say that I am proud of my resilience. After my injury and the intensive rehab I have had to undergo, I have a greater appreciation not only for the work that therapists do and the effort that patients have to put forth to recover, but also for my cognitive abilities and the ability to physically move that many people take for granted. I have worked hard to get to where I am today, and I will only keep moving forward.
~Alyssa Clemente
Alyson Lauda 
Alyson Lauda, another merited recipient, was nominated for the Alan Kong Scholarship by four of her classmates. These friends had the following to say about Aly in their submission:
When given the prompt to think of a student that exudes selflessness, perseverance, and a positive attitude, the first person that comes to mind is Aly. Since the beginning of our first year as DPT students, Aly was always incredibly kind and genuine. It was during the fall of our first year in the program that Aly's father unexpectedly passed away suddenly in a tragic car accident. Aly was back in class a week later, returning motivated to learn with grace and strength. While going through that incredibly tough time, she continued to participate during classes, upheld her job responsibilities, made time for others, and maintained a positive attitude. Aly was always there to help ease her classmates' stress, reminding us frequently to stay calm and take deep breaths.
The hardships people go through in life says a lot about them, but how they respond and overcome their hardships says even more. Aly Lauda is deserving of the Alan Kong Scholarship because she is selfless and kind. She continues to be a positive role model in class and will, no doubt, develop into an extraordinary physical therapist. Apart from the skills we acquire in this program, we feel an exceptional physical therapist must also be altruistic, empathetic, and humble; and Alyson Lauda exhibits all of these traits. She truly exemplifies Alan Kong's story, his strength, his values, and his perseverance.

Lauren Jackson Pierre-Glaude, PT, DPT
Class of 2009
As a physical therapist in the outpatient setting at St. Charles Hospital in Port Jefferson, NY, Dr. Lauren Pierre-Glaude was given the option to stay home during the COVID-19 pandemic, but felt compelled to work and assist during this unprecedented time. She volunteered to work on the COVID-19 Prone Team at St. Charles Hospital. In this position, she was responsible for turning ventilator-dependent patients in the ICU and PACU to a prone position and, eventually, back to supine. Each labor-intensive turn required a trained team of up to five individuals to safely accomplish the position change. Ventilator-dependent patients remain in the prone position for up to 16 hours to help increase oxygen saturation in their bloodstream. During downtime, Dr. Pierre-Glaude served as a patient advocate; scheduling and implementing important virtual sessions between patients and their health care providers or family members. We're proud of Lauren's courage and dedication to the patients who needed intensive care during the initial wave of the pandemic.

Wishing Great Success to our Colleague
Jamie Greco, PT, DPT, EdD, has Returned to Duke!
I decided to return to the classroom to earn my t-DPT degree after having been a practicing PT for about 15 years, when my youngest child was three. Part of me knew there would never be a "perfect time" to go back to school, so I might as well get started. This was a pivotal decision in shaping the path that led me to where I am today. While earning my degree at Stony Brook, I was introduced to many current and former SBU PT faculty. I was so inspired and impressed by everyone I met, and it made me reflect upon my career and plans after finishing my degree. I expressed interest in being a Lab Assistant for the DPT program and, after being a 'Super TA' in multiple classes over the course of a few years, I was offered a full-time faculty position. In my heart, I knew it was the right choice for me to transition from being a clinician to teaching in the classroom. I truly enjoy sharing my love of PT and my knowledge and experiences as a clinician with students.
I remember distinctly where I was when I made another pivotal decision in my career to earn my Doctorate in Education (EdD). This time was a little different. I had not only my immediate family supporting me, but the additional support of my SBU DPT family as well. What my PT journey up to this point has taught me is that there is never a time to be finished with learning and growing as a PT. At the beginning of my career, I learned so many things from my patients and their families. They taught me the right (and wrong) words to say, how to listen (and really HEAR) and how to celebrate and appreciate the small things life has to offer. I also learned how to support and advocate for them when it seemed there was no one else in their corner. I have taken many lessons from my fellow faculty...that I don't need to know everything and that stepping outside my comfort zone can reap many new discoveries. Finally, there were many lessons learned from the wonderful students I have had the privilege of teaching. I learned how to support them when they set foot in the clinical environment for the first time, and when they exited the clinic for the last time as students. I always told people I had the best job at SBU because I got to witness the students' growth over the three years and was able to be a small part of their journey.
It is these lessons that give me the strength and courage to take this next step in my own journey. I am so grateful for the many opportunities afforded to me as a faculty member at Stony Brook. I will always remember my days as a 'Seawolf' as some of the best!
