| The symposium highlighted the collaborative relationship between veterinary and physical therapy professionals. The symposium’s opening presentation by Ann Bancroft, one of the world's preeminent polar explorers and internationally recognized leader, addressed this theme with her presentation on “Collaboration and Teamwork”. |
The field of animal rehabilitation is rapidly growing and rehabilitation services have become integral partners for many veterinary practices and teaching hospitals. Nationwide and beyond, veterinary professionals are actively working with physical therapy professionals to develop treatment programs and deliver therapy.
Laboratory and demonstration sessions covered many clinical aspects of animal rehabilitation.
Continuing education credit approved for DVMs, veterinary technicians, physical therapists and physical therapy assistants.
