CSM 2020 Residency - We are planning on having a student contest to connect Geriatric Residency Directors with students. Residency Directors let me know if you will be attending CSM 2020?
GeriNotes Resident Corner - In 2020 GeriNotes is willing to publish resident articles that include case reports, new geriatric PT Programs and new geriatric PT tools. Literature reviews will not be accepted unless tied to case report. I hope to establish a working group/ sub committee to grow articles from residents.
Outstanding Geriatric PT Resident - The Outstanding Geriatric Physical Therapist Resident Award would honor a recent geriatric residency graduate in order to recognize the intrinsic value of the postprofessional training, and thereby promote and provide for the development and accreditation of geriatric residency education programs in physical therapy. The nomination packet must be received in the Academy of Geriatric Physical Therapy office by November 15. https://geriatricspt.org/awards/
