Class of 2019 update:


The learners have just completed their last onsite clinical practice sessions for 2018. They delved into different integrated lifespan and health systems including burn and amputation rehabilitation. Many patient volunteers and our clinical partners participated in these clinical labs providing an enriched learning environment and real life settings for our learners. They are  excited and ready to start their 2nd internship in January.
