Dr. Hudkins got to catch the OT freshman right at the end of their first day in OT102! Everyone had a good, but busy, first day.
Keep an eye out toward the end of the week as we check back in for an update with this group.

And we’re off!!
Fall I semester started with….cookies! Dr. Miller (and wife) treated his Musculoskeletal class with some pumpkin chocolate chip cookies and then they jumped right into lecture and lab. Students learned and practiced some basic pain and edema management skills- interviewing about pain, retrograde massage, compression.

🗣️ Calling All SFU MOT Alumni!

We're looking for Occupational Therapy alumni to join us on campus during Mentorship Week on Friday, October 16th and make a meaningful impact on the next generation of practitioners.

As part of our Alumni Mentorship Program, participants will have the opportunity to connect with small groups of MOT students and share:
*Real-world experiences transitioning from school to practice
*Insights on navigating early career challenges and successes
*Guidance on career planning, clinical skill development, and professional networking

Your experiences, lessons learned, and advice can inspire, encourage, and shape the future of our current students!

Whether it's been a few months or several years, we'd love to have you back on campus! This would be a great way to start Homecoming Weekend (https://www.francis.edu/homecoming)!
