Goodwill of Chattanooga\u2019s HELPs program is the only one of its kind in the Greater Chattanooga area and within the Goodwill International network. \u00a0Over 24,000 people have received medical equipment from Goodwill HELPs \u2013 6,126 in 2014 alone.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cWe selected Susie for our alumni of the year award because of the great work she has done and continues to do in the community,\u201d Ingram said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This year\u2019s speaker was Dr. Corrie Odom, the Director of Clinical Education at Duke University and the past Chairman of Clinical Education for the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cWe were excited to have Dr. Odom speak, because she is considered a leader in physical therapy clinical education,\u201d said Ingram.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Odom discussed Duke\u2019s method for delivering clinical experiences, where they send multiple students into the clinical setting with a single clinical instructor. Ingram explained that physical therapy clinical education has been a 1:1 model, where one instructor takes one student.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cWhat the literature is indicating is that this peer learning model, where you send multiple students with a single instructor, has similar outcomes as the 1:1 model. The advantage for the academic institution is the ability to place more students at fewer sites. The advantage for the clinic sites is that they may have one person who is working with the students at a time,\u201d Ingram said. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cThe model has been fully implemented at Mayo, with a 1:5 model, where a single instructor has five students at all times. And they recognize that while that instructor may have a reduced caseload in the beginning, the students are able to take on more responsibility of the care of the patients as time goes on, and the instructor can manage more patients,\u201d continued Ingram. \u201cWe asked Dr. Odom to come because we see this model seldom used in the Chattanooga community, and we are wanting to encourage our clinic sites to consider it.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Forum traditionally hosts nationally recognized speakers in the physical therapy field, including presidents of APTA.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>View photos of the event below.<\/p>\n<p>[slickr-flickr search=&#8221;sets&#8221; set=&#8221;72157661386100474&#8243;]<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The UTC Department of Physical Therapy recently hosted their annual Physical Therapy Forum, with over 250 in attendance.<\/p>\n<p class=\"more-link-wrap\"><span><a class=\"more-link button text\" href=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/2016\/03\/utc-hosts-annual-physical-therapy-forum\/\"><span>Continue Reading <\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":857,"featured_media":14987,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","_ef_editorial_meta_date_first-draft-date":"","_ef_editorial_meta_paragraph_assignment":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_needs-photo":"","_ef_editorial_meta_number_word-count":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_slider":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_featurette":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[56,123864,3,8244,12760],"tags":[53,12720,12719,54,12899],"class_list":{"0":"post-14984","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-advancement-and-alumni","8":"category-college-of-health-education-and-professional-studies","9":"category-community","10":"category-honors-and-awards","11":"category-physical-therapy","12":"tag-college-of-health","13":"tag-department-of-physical-therapy","14":"tag-dr-debbie-ingram","15":"tag-education-and-professional-studies","16":"tag-physical-therapy-forum","17":"entry"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
