A total of 51 students including nursing, medical and physical therapy attended the Hands and Feet Mission trip to Lima, Peru. In four days, the clinic treated over 500 patients with more than 150 seen by our 8 PT students and our PT Clinical Education Assistant. This included Sirena Holder, class of 2019 and Amanda Lochte, Ashley Nguyen, Desirae Sack, Greg Conner, Kylie Nemecek, Madison Beene and Nithin Thaimuriyil from the class of 2020 and Dr. Lindsay Allen.
The students all did an amazing job of working with the inter professional teams to ensure each patient received the best treatment possible. PT played a vital role and helped to educate our future nurses and doctors the value of physical therapy.
