World Physical Therapy Day
|
|
There is now just over one month left to plan your activities to
celebrate World Physical Therapy Day 2015. This year the theme is
“Fulfilling potential”, emphasising physical therapists’ role in
supporting people with long-term health conditions or disabilities
achieve their goals, fulfil their potential and participate fully in
society.
Posters, flyers and postcards with this year's theme are available for download from the toolkit page: www.wcpt.org/wptday-toolkit.
From here you can also access a resources booklet with a list of facts
and resources about physical therapy, independence and participation, as
well as an article by the WCPT President (found in the resources
booklet).
Remember to send us a brief report and photographs of how you celebrated the day to info@wcpt.org. |
