Time to give some big props to our membership coordinator,
Nicole Baldridge, who is currently doing her residency in women’s health at
UPMC! Way to go!
What is a residency? It is a post-professional
clinical and didactic education program designed to advance the clinician as a
provider of care in a specially defined area of clinical practice. There
are currently five residencies in women’s health that are credentialed by the American
Board of Physical Therapy Residency & Fellowship Education (ABPTRFE). There are two developing programs that
have applied for credentialing from the ABPTRFE. Programs typically last from
nine to fifteen months.

So what do you think? Anyone thinking about applying to a
residency program this year? Join the SSIG and get some advice or talk it out
with other students today!
