The latest session in People & Culture's Pride Engagement Series – focused on the physical therapist assistant program at Penn College – was hosted last week by Victoria Hurwitz, director; Sheryl E. Snyder-Everitt and Mary T. Stout, faculty members; and Christine A. Tilburg, clinical director.
Participants were able to explore different techniques and equipment in the PTA program: what correct posture looks like when standing or sitting at a desk, proper lifting techniques, the challenge of using a wheelchair, and how fluidotherapy and an electrical simulation unit are helpfully employed.
The next stop on the Pride Engagement Series itinerary will be plastics & polymer engineering technology, from 3-4:30 p.m. Tuesday, Feb 14.
