Message From the Chair and Associate Chair It is our pleasure to report on another productive and eventful year for our Department. This Annual Report details the accomplishments of our faculty members, staff and students. We highlight the following notable achievements. Education This year we admitted a total of 106 new students to the first year of the MScPT Program: 76 students to the main campus in Edmonton, 18 in Calgary and 12 in Augustana. This becomes the MScPT Class of 2019. We continue to attract students of outstanding caliber to our program. In December 2016, the class of 2017 completed their final clinical placements and OSCE to complete the program and head off into the workforce. We congratulate the following exceptional teachers: Dr. Judy Chepeha awarded both the Faculty Teaching Award and the Rehabilitation Medicine Students Award for excellence in teaching in the Department of Physical Therapy, Professor Lisa Jasper - awarded the Faculty Sessional Teaching Award, and Suzanne Bergsten and William Tung â&#x20AC;&#x201C; who both assist in the cardiorespiratory course shared the Faculty Teaching Assistant Award (Clinician). Our students are competitive for a number of scholarships and awards on campus. Notably, Steven Hazlett and Colleen Gibson were each awarded the $15 000 Indigenous Graduate Award, and eight students (Katelyn Kaufman, Candace Mazur, Jacqueline Meyers, Ciaran Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Flynn, Leah Peterson, Nolan Tracey. Georgi Trifanov, and Alyssa Wildeman) each received a half award of the Queen Elizabeth II Scholarship worth $5,400 each. Research Researchers acquired $2,718,000 of new external grant funding as principal investigators this year, and were co-investigators on national and international research teams acquiring $6,124,000 of new funding. The tenure track faculty members each had an average of $210,000 this year to run their labs.

Service Our faculty members were heavily involved in many service activities. We highlight Dr. Lauren Beaupre’s role as National Director for Hip Fracture, Bone and Joint Canada, Professor Berni Martin’s role as Chair of the Canadian Council of Physiotherapy University Programs – Curriculum Committee, and Dr. Linda Woodhouse’s role as President of the Canadian Physiotherapy Association. Our support staff continued their commitment to quality service. They efficiently provided support to our clinical education program, to the program applicants, to students in the program, and to researchers. They ensured the smooth running of day-to-day Department activities. Summary We thank our students, staff and faculty members for their commitment to serve our community through advancing the field of physical therapy. We especially thank the many dedicated physical therapists who help train our students as clinical preceptors, providing them with invaluable experience and mentoring. Your help is essential to the training of the next generation of physical therapists. Jaynie Yang, PT, PhD Interim Chair

The short-term strategic planning session was designed and organized by the Department Executive (Interim Chair, Associate Chair, Administrative Professional Officer), with the approval of the Department Staff. The session was 3-hours on May 11, 2017. Based on the four goals (Culture, Research, Education, Profile) identified in the Faculty Strategic Plan, the Department sought to identify no more than two strategic actions for each of the goals, on which the Department would focus in the next two years. We developed strategic intentions related to:  Culture - Team building  Research - Increasing innovative partnerships to improve stakeholder collaboration, and formalizing a mentorship process.  Education - Curriculum review and comparisons with other entry-level programs; working with stakeholders to align expectations of clinical skills of students; and ensuring comprehensive program evaluation and comparison of student performance and outcomes at all three sites.  Profile - Developing a strategy to highlight achievements and activities of the Department, and Alumni engagement.

Following its formation, the Teaching Interest Group (TIG) expanded to include faculty members from the other Rehabilitation Medicine Departments (SPA and OT). The FRM TIG has been a valuable addition for teaching enhancement within the Faculty. New initiatives by the TIG include 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 2016-2017. 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).

For the 2016-2017 academic year a total of 656 placements were coordinated through the office of the ACCE. These include: 623 U of A student placements, 25 student placements for students from other programs in Canada and 8 international students completing placements in Alberta. The international students came from Han University of Applied Science Netherlands, Netherlands European School of PT, Glasgow Caledonian School, and Pontifica Universidad Catolica de Chile. The out of province students came from the Universities of British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Western, Queens, Ottawa, Toronto, Laval and Dalhousie. Additionally, 1 U of A student completed a placement internationally in Hong Kong. 104 shadow experiences were also organised for first year students in facilities in Edmonton, Calgary and Camrose. A rough breakdown of offers per course and practice setting are presented in the tables below. PLACEMENTS BY COURSE / PRACTICE SETTING Course

All students have been placed for PTHER 522 and 523. As in the past, the spring

2017 session was particularly challenging again this year with both cohorts out on placement at the same time. The ACCE and CCCE have again met with the Alberta Health Services Student Placement Office staff and discussed the challenges at length. There has been a change in staff in this office so we have been working closely with them to try to increase capacity in the public setting. These challenges notwithstanding we have been able to ensure that each student will graduate with the required hours in cardiorespiratory and neurological practice.

We continued to use the online ACP through HSPnet which has streamlined the assessment process for clinicians. It also gave us the ability to see the midterm evaluation results and provide any support to the students and the sites. Clinical Educator of the Year Award The PT Clinical Educator of the Year award was presented at the RMSA gala. Kari Kopat from Centennial Centre for Brain Injury was this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recipient for excellence in student supervision. Kari has supervised 24 students in her career for a total of 144 weeks of supervision. Students always value the time and effort Kari puts in to students and she goes above and beyond to provide students with the best experience possible. As such, the placements with her are highly sought after. Community Partners Two site coordinatorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s meetings were held in each of Edmonton and Calgary with site placement coordinators and rehab managers to discuss issues related to clinical education, to communicate PT program changes, and build placement capacity. Both meetings have teleconference facilities which allowed for site coordinators from across the province to participate in information sharing and decision making. Bryce Rudland, Calgary Coordinator of Clinical Education (CCCE) led the Calgary meetings, with the ACCE attending via video conference. In addition, Bryce has continued to meet with PT and Rehab leaders within the Calgary zone to discuss the opportunities for increasing placement capacity and to provide significant support to the sites. Both the ACCE and CCCE have shadowed students on clinical placements at sites in and around Edmonton and Calgary to increase the visibility of the Department and connect with clinicians. 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 of student performance.

Year Since the implementation of the Augustana campus in 2011 and the Calgary campus in 2012, we have had 57 Augustana graduates and 54 Calgary graduates.

Department of Physical Therapy Pursuing Our Best

The Augustana Satellite MScPT Campus had another busy and productive year in 2016-2017. It is hard to believe that it is already the sixth cohort of Augustana students graduating this year! In addition to the successful provision of the MScPT curriculum, there were many Augustana specific collaborations and events. Optional student electives were run in partnerships with the Camrose PCN, with the physiotherapist at the Camrose pool, with the Augustana music department and with local physiotherapists in private practice. The annual lunch and learn was well attended with around 20 attendees hearing Dr. Martin Ferguson-Pellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vision for the future of rehabilitation. This event is one way in which we say thank you for the ongoing support from the Augustana community as well as local healthcare providers. We also continue to attend local events such as Augustana Preview Days to promote physiotherapy and our program. A new walking initiative was started this year where Augustana physiotherapy students volunteer in a local long term care facility to help promote walking and fitness with the residents while gaining valuable experience in this setting. The sixth annual Augustana Curling Bonspiel was also well attended with a sold out event. Much fun was had by all current students, faculty and alumni that attended the event. The second year Augustana physiotherapy students were very pleased to present a cheque for $1875 to the Camrose Special Olympics as a result of their fundraising at the event. Collaborations continue with the Augustana nursing program. Examples include shared interdisciplinary classes and promotional events such as hosting the students in the Young Medical Minds program. We look forward to providing the MScPT program to our next cohorts of satellite students in the supportive Augustana campus and with our strong community support.

The Calgary Satellite MScPT Campus enjoyed another great year in 20162017. The campus continues to deliver the MScPT curriculum to two cohorts of students. In addition to this, the campus offers the Internationally Educated Physiotherapist (IEPT) Bridging program, and facilitates video conferencing connections so that Calgary residents can connect to PhD courses in Edmonton. The campus underwent some staffing changes this past year. This was Gabriela Abbudâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first year as a full-time instructor. Gabriela facilitates the second year content in the MScPT program, teaches in the IEPT program and also teaches an online course in human movement. Bryce Rudland has also increased his hours to a 0.8 FTE during peak times so that he can better support the clinical education component of the MScPT program. The Calgary students successfully ran their second annual dodge ball tournament which welcomed teams from the Edmonton and Augustana cohorts. Other notable events in the past year were the Alumni Pub Night in the fall and the Family Fun Event held at the Calgary Campus in the spring. There are no major changes planned for the coming year. We look forward to another successful year at the Calgary Satellite and continued collaboration with the Occupational Therapy program. We also look forward to welcoming in the 2020 Calgary cohort this fall and graduating our forth cohort of Calgary students in the spring.

The 2016-2017 academic year was a successful one for the Corbett Hall Student Physical Therapy Clinic. The clinic continued to provide novel and innovative placement opportunities for MScPT students and facilitated community engagement by offering impactful physical therapy services that addressed physical therapy gaps within the community, particularly the underserved in the Edmonton region.
