👶Pediatrics Lab Day!👶

Last week, our Grad 3’s got to put their pediatric skills into practice! They learned some taping and wrapping exercises in their Peds Demo Lab and put the Peabody Developmental Motor Scale to the test on several kids!

We want to say thank you to the families who trusted our Grad 3’s to practice their skills on their little ones and gain some hands-on experience!
