Two UCA physical therapy faculty members were recently elected to the Board of Directors of the Arkansas Physical Therapy Association (ArPTA). Dr. James Fletcher was elected Vice-President of the ArPTA, and Dr. Bill Bandy was elected to a second term as Arkansas’ Chief Delegate to the American Physical Therapy Association House of Delegates.
In addition, Dr. Steve Forbush received a national award, the State Legislative Commitment Award, from the American Physical Therapy Association during the 2014 APTA State Policy and Payment Forum this September in Seattle. Below is an explanation of this award and the comments made by APTA President Paul Rockar when presenting the award.
These faculty members help set a great example of professional involvement for our students.
