Meetings

Today we had a meeting for our programs PT day - October 24. We are going to have a number of stations set up for our guests. The theme will be Bike Right, Bike Fit (link is to a .pdf file) so we will have a station on bike safety (we called 311 here in NYC and they sent over 300 copies of a biking map for NYC which outlines the safest routes), another station on proper nutrition and the physiological benefits of biking, proper bike fit, we will also have a raffle for some fun-tastic APTA PT month stuff. Twas' a good meeting.

Also, on Tuesday I acted as the speaker of the mock House of Delegates for the 1st year class at my program. They debated the merits of 4 of last years Reference Committees (RC's) aka motions. There was a lot of discussion over the topics of making Automatic External Defibrillator’s and certification in their use required for all PT clinics, provision of student physical therapist service, opposition to grandfathering the Doctor of PT, and the use of the title "Doctor of Physical Therapy".
