Advancing Interprofessional Education for OT and PT Students: Insights from Dr. Lou Jensen at Creighton University
In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Lou Jensen, a visionary professor at Creighton University, who has advanced interprofessional education on Parkinson’s management through the integration of LSVT BIG training for their occupational therapy (OT) and physical therapy (PT) students. Dr. Jensen shares how LSVT BIG has become a cornerstone of their therapy curriculum, preparing students to deliver evidence-based treatment and become leaders in neurorehabilitation.
We delve into the broader impact of incorporating LSVT BIG into PT and OT education, including fostering interdisciplinary care and preparing students for diverse practice settings. Dr. Jensen offers her perspective on how this training is creating a new generation of therapists equipped with lifelong care models for patients with Parkinson’s and other neurological conditions.
Whether you're a student, educator, or practicing therapist, this episode provides valuable insights into the latest developments in OT and PT education. Join us to explore how LSVT BIG is shaping the future of neurological rehabilitation and empowering therapists to make a lasting impact on their patients' lives.
