Mount St. Joseph University’s Physical Therapy Program Welcomes Policymakers and Regulators to Speak with Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) Students.
Mount St. Joseph University's Physical Therapy Program is so grateful to the community of policymakers and regulators who give their time to assist in teaching our students about laws, policies, and issues impacting our future physical therapy professionals.
Special thanks to Missy Anthony, Ohio OTPTAT Board Executive Director, for meeting with our DPT 2025 Cohort to discuss laws and rules.
Also, a big thanks to Ohio State Senator Louis Blessing III and Ohio State Representative Cindy Abrams for discussing health policies with our DPT 2024 Cohort.
