Registration is free and invaluable—as it addresses falls before they happen, and encourages public awareness about healthy and safe aging—critical in a world population averaging longer life spans. PTs are encouraged to take notes and pack their camera phones; there will be an exhibit hall showcasing mobility aids, assistive devices for home safety, exercise equipment and more.
Just to give you a visual: Starting Wednesday, June 16th and through Saturday of that week, more than 2,500 physical therapy professionals will congregate at the Hynes Convention Center to learn more about physical therapy jobs.
