Two UCA physical therapy faculty members were recently elected to the Board of Directors of the Arkansas Physical Therapy Association (ArPTA). Â 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. Â 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.
