Student Physical Therapist
CurrentI am currently completing a 10- week clinical internship at Duke Regional Hospital on their in- patient rehab floor. I am working under the supervision of a licensed physical therapist to provide therapy services at the acute rehabilitation level. The primary diagnoses that I have been working with include: heart transplant, CVA and lower extremity amputation. I collaborate with occupational therapists, speech therapists, case managers and physicians to formulate the best plan of care for each patient and make recommendations regarding length of stay, further therapy needs and discharge planning.
