Preview PT’s Capstone Event

By Rylee Funk ’29, staff writer

The physical therapy program will host a night of presentations on Wednesday, Nov. 18.

The capstone event will be held in the Arnold Health Professions Pavilion (AHPP) room 103, starting at 5 p.m. and ending at 7 p.m. The night will consist of 10 total presentations completed by third year physical therapy students. They will be presented in a platform style much like professional conferences, and they will last 10-12 minutes with an opportunity at the end for those attending to ask questions.

Dr. Charles Salvo is a physical therapy professor here at LVC and the one who coordinated this event.  These events take a lot of time and effort, but it is all worth it in the end.

“I hope the general public will be appreciative of the physical therapy students advancing the field and research basis within their profession,” Salvo said.

This is an opportunity for these students to showcase the knowledge they have gained from the past three semesters.

“The goal is to present the materials of their studies to the general public,” Salvo said.

This event is open to any student who attends LVC, to family and friends of those presenting, and any faculty at LVC who may want to attend.
