Department of Physical Therapy Pursuing Our Best

Message From the Chair and Associate Chair It’s our pleasure to present our 2013-2014 Annual Report from the Department of Physical Therapy, University of Alberta. This year was an especially memorable year for our educational programs, because we received additional permanent funding at a time when cuts to some facets of university education have been significant. We hope you enjoy reviewing our accomplishments. Here are the highlights. Permanent funding for the satellites: In April, 2014, we received the exciting news that the Government of Alberta approved permanent funding for the Augustana and Calgary satellite campuses. The Government further approved $1.4 M one-time funding for expansion and renovation of the Calgary campus. This funding will allow us to secure the personnel and infrastructure for the two satellites, and continue to offer innovative and excellent programming. Accreditation: In February 2014 Physiotherapy Education Accreditation Canada (PEAC) completed the last component of our accreditation review with a site visit at our Calgary PT Campus. The MScPT Program, including all 3 campuses, was granted Accreditation, Fully Compliant status and included the comment: ‘PEAC would like to congratulate the MScPT program faculty and staff on the quality of the educational experience being provided not only to students in Edmonton, but to those at both the Camrose and Calgary distributed sites.’ MScPT Program review: In 2012 the Department faculty and staff members began a comprehensive review of the MScPT Program including the curriculum, academic courses, clinical education and admissions process. Based on feedback gathered regularly from students, academic and clinical instructors, and from the accreditation process, a series of retreats and workshops were held to review and update the program appropriately. Some of the changes will come into effect in the 2014-15 academic year, most notably a curricular addition of primary care and medical screening content. Expansion of space in Edmonton campus: Custom renovations were completed on the 6th floor of the Clinical Sciences Building to allow expansion of the Faculty of Rehabilitation Medicine. This space now houses the Collaborative Orthopedic Research (CORe) Group of our Department, which includes the research teams of Drs Lauren Beaupre and Eric Parent. Dr Linda Woodhouse also has space for some of her team in this location.

Message From the Chair and Associate Chair... Alberta Internationally Educated Physiotherapists Bridging Program: The first cohort of students, admitted in May, 2013 completed the program in the summer of 2014. A second cohort of 20 students began their studies in May of 2014. Early experience and feedback suggests that the Bridging Program has been a vital support for the students and several have been able to pass the National Exam and secure employment as a PT. The Bridging Program’s innovative, blended format was recognized with a national award from Citizenship and Immigration Canada’s International Qualifications Network. Additional funding from Health Canada will allow for a third cohort of students to benefit from the program in 2015-16. Research productivity: Research faculty members continue to be highly successful with external funding. Our researchers attracted over $5M in new funding, published 67 peer-reviewed papers and 84 abstracts. Honours: We congratulate the recipients of the following awards – Trish Manns for the McCalla Professorship, Heather Bredy for the Faculty of Rehabilitation Medicine Sessional Teaching Award, Maxi Miciak for the Faculty of Rehabilitation Medicine Graduate Student Teaching Assistant Award and Crystal McLellan for the Rehabilitation Medicine Students’ Association Excellence in Teaching Award. Finally, we sincerely thank all the clinical preceptors that have given generously of their time to help train our students. We could not run the clinical training programs without you.

The Physical Therapy Department is committed to providing high quality education to its students. In 2012 the Department formed a Teaching Interest Group (TIG) to allow staff members to discuss teaching strategies and promote consistent instruction among the satellite campuses. Following itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s formation, the TIG expanded to include faculty from the other Rehabilitation Medicine Departments (SPA and OT). The FRM TIG has been a valuable addition for teaching enhancement within the Faculty. New intiatives by the TIG include an FRM-specific peer observation program for teaching enhancement. The program aims to provide instructors the opportunity to receive constructive feedback on their teaching in a non-punitive context. Peer observers meet with the instructor to discuss their teaching objectives and together reflect on the strengths and opportunities for improvement. The peer observation program has been successfully piloted and implemented with 12 instructors (6 from PT) actively participating in the program. The graph below uses weighted averages to summarize Student Ratings of Instruction for the courses taught by staff members in 2013-2014. Each statement in the evaluation is rated from 1-strongly disagree to 5-strongly agree; 5 being a perfect score. The questions on the student evaluations are separated into two categories: Course Specific (includes questions regarding course content and structure) and Instructor Specific (includes questions specific to the instructorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s knowledge and delivery).

The spring 2014 session was particularly challenging again this year; with both satellite campuses at full capacity the required placements for the May/June time frame exceed 220 positions. The ACCE has discussed the challenges at length with Alberta Health Services in particular, and a new process for placements will be initiated for the fall 2014 request. Sites will be given a number request based on the previous year’s placement offerings for that time frame instead of always starting at zero. It is hoped that with a target number to work towards in specific areas that the program will receive the required number of placements in areas appropriate for student learning. So far sites have been receptive to the changes. The PT Clinical Educator of the Year award was presented for the third time this year at the RMSA gala. Jon Ashmead from the Transplants Team at the University of Alberta Hospital, was this year’s recipient for excellence in student supervision. Jon has been an active participant in student supervision since he graduated from the U of A MScPT Program in 2007 and student feedback about Jon’s supervisory style is exemplary. Community Partners Two site coordinator’s meetings were held in each of Edmonton and Calgary with site placement coordinators and rehab managers to discuss issues related to clinical education, communicate PT program changes, and build placement capacity. The Edmonton meeting teleconference capabilities allowed for site coordinators from across the province to participate in information sharing and decision making. Jon Gabbai, Assistant Academic Coordinator of Clinical Education (AACCE) led the Calgary meetings, with the ACCE attending via video conference. In addition, the AACCE continued to meet with PT and Rehab leaders within the Calgary zone to discuss the opportunities for increasing placement capacity. The AACCE also took lead for second year student placements this year to provide a consistent point person for student issues. This format has worked well. Both the ACCE and AACCE have shadowed students on clinical placements at sites in and around Edmonton and Calgary to increase the visibility of the Department in clinical sites. The main goals of the visits are to offer support to students and to observe them in situ, as well as connect with supervising therapist, build relationships with them and get a sense for student performance.

During this past year, we entered the 4th year of operations for delivering the MScPT Satellite program as a pilot project in Camrose and Calgary. Student demand for the MScPT program has grown substantially since the starting of the satellite programs. To date 22 students have completed the MScPT Program at the Augustana Campus and another 30 (12 Augustana and 18 Calgary) will graduate in Fall 2014. With permanent government funding starting in the 2014-15 academic year, there will be a minimum of 26 additional MScPT graduates each year (12 Augustana and 14 Calgary). This boosts the total MScPT graduates from 80 to 106 annually. With the successful training of two cohorts of MScPT students at the Augustana satellite (majority of the first graduating class choosing to work in rural settings); the Calgary site successfully delivering the first year of the program to its first cohort; and being included in the recent successful accreditation review, a proposal for permanent funding for the Satellite program was submitted and approved.

The third cohort of students completed the program at Augustana. Student response has been positive. This is the first year with cohorts of students in the second year of the program at all 3 campuses. Transition for the students was smooth. As of September 2013, all classes were connected through the Bridge with an iPad app. This has addressed the demand for bandwidth and ensures quality of audio and video regardless of the number of sites connected. Further, this app has allowed all sites to have camera control in Edmonton. Lisa Jasper continues to participate in the General Space Planning and Design Process for a new Augustana Science Building. Chris Zarski continued to provide physical therapy services to the Augustana athletes September to December. Collaboration between the MScPT students and the Augustana nursing students occurred through shared InterD 410 classes, combined promotional activities, a collaborative educational activity, and a shared educational activity with a visiting distinguished Augustana alumni. The Augustana community has been very supportive of the MScPT program through the provision of clinical placements, student community electives, assistance in finding patients for student learning experiences, acting as standardized patients and assisting with practical exams.

This past year marks the first time that the Calgary satellite site operated with two cohorts of students. The 2015 cohort of 18 students completed their second year of studies and the 2016 cohort of 19 students completed their first year of studies. Starting in September 2013 the majority of Lifesize connections were made through the newly added Bridge which allowed for better audio and video quality while decreasing the bandwith demand of each individual connection. In using the Bridge, we have also started using a custom app that was developed to allow us to use the Bridge while maintaining important functionality such as the ability for a remote site to move the cameras in Edmonton. The app is run on iPads at the sattelite sites. Head set microphones have been purchased for the Calgary classroom and Calgary lab. The new microphones have greatly improved the audio quality received at the other sites when instructors are teaching from Calgary. The 2015 Calgary cohort and the 2016 Calgary cohort have been the main users of the Calgary space in the past year. The current space has been sufficient to run all classes while supplying study space for students outside of class time. The Alberta Internationally Education Physical Therapy Bridging Program continues to use the Calgary teaching lab every second or third Saturday. We look forward to welcoming in the 2017 Calgary cohort this Fall. This coming year will also mark the graduation of the first cohort of Calgary satellite students with their official convocation in June 2015. Big changes are on the way as the Calgary Occupational Therapy program prepares to move in to the University of Calgaryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Downtown Campus (DTC). Plans are well underway for the expansion of our current space at DTC to include the OT program. The new space will also allow the PT program to increase Calgary enrollement.

The Department of Physical Therapy in partnership with the College of Physical Therapists of Alberta (CPTA) launched the Alberta Internationally Educated Physiotherapists Bridging Program (AIEPB) in 2011. With grant funding to 2016 from Health Canada, the pilot program is designed to provide internationally educated physical therapists (IEPTs) with the knowledge and skills necessary to meet Canadian credentialing requirements and practice in Canada. In May 2013, the first cohort began their studies. Following a one-week Boot Camp, three online academic courses with accompanying biweekly Saturday labs and biweekly one day mentorship sessions, and a final six-week full time clinical placement, our first cohort of 16 students completed the program at the end of August 2014. Seven of seven students successfully passed the written portion of the national exam. Four students have successfully begun employment as provisionally licensed Physiotherapists in Alberta. Input from students, faculty, sessional instructors, and other stakeholders will form the Program Evaluation. The program is well on its way to meeting its obligation of graduating two cohorts of students. The second cohort of 20 students began May 2014. Twelve students are attending the Edmonton site and eight students are attending from our Calgary satellite site. With the early success of the AIEPB Program, a grant amendment for 2015 - 2016 was received to allow for an additonal cohort and establish a third satellite site in another location, potentially allowing IEPTs from Saskatchewan to attend. The department is developing a sustainability plan to transition the pilot to a permanent program. In March 2014 the Bridging Program was awarded the International Qualification Network (IQN) award by the Minister of Citizenship and Immigration Canada. The IQN is a national community of practice linking people and organizations working in international qualifications assessment and recognition. The AIEPB Program was recognized with the IQN Advisory Councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Special Award as an initiative of special distinction for demonstration of exceptional qualities in conception and execution.

For the 2013-2014 academic year, we are proud to have been able to incorporate the Young Hip Exercise group through coordination with the Bone and Joint Clinic. This provides a needed service to the community to help people who have had hip replacements rehabilitate and progress towards their goals of returning to work and sport. We have also started our Better Balance Program at the Strathcona Senior Center, offering weekly sessions to the older adult community for exercise and balance training. We have continued to offer our services to patients with musculoskeletal complaints, neurological conditions, or those with chronic pain. In June, 2014 we hosted the Electrical Stimulation Therapy to Treat Chronic Wounds continuing education course. This course increased awareness of our clinic in the Edmonton community and enabled one of our students to participate. Moving forward into 2014-2015, the Corbett Hall Student Clinic will be hosting “Introduction to the Clinical Application of Rehabilitation Imaging: Lumbo-Pelvic Dysfunction” in January. We are also very excited to be planning an exercise group session for patients with movement disorders, such as Parkinson’s Disease.

Primary Care Physical Therapy Workshop Dr William Boissonnault, an expert in primary care physical therapy from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, came to the University of Alberta in mid November 2013 to discuss curriculum renewal and the integration of more primary care content into our curriculum. Dr Boissonnault spent one afternoon presenting a faculty development workshop for 8 teaching faculty members and shared his experiences with the development and integration of this content in the UWM PT program. He also gave a short lecture and demonstration of special tests to first year PT students, and finished off with a workshop for PT Clinical Instructors focussing on primary care, triage and referral. This workshop was provided free of charge in recognition of the work done by clinical instructors in supervising PT students. Dr Boissonnault has also shared a number of resources with us from his courses that will be used as we develop our own primary care course.
