Location
Be in the Right Place
Our state-of-the-art Medical Sciences Building is an ideal place to pursue your Doctor of Physical Therapy degree, and it’s just the starting point of your educational journey at 黑料网. Our connections to the greater community are broad and deep, giving you countless ways to hone your skills, and our location in the Pacific Northwest is ready-made for an active lifestyle.
Apply Your Training In-House
It won’t take long for you to appreciate the special nature of our learning environment. You’ll do your first clinical rotation at our in-house community clinic during the month of May, when we offer pro bono services to the surrounding community. And because we see an average of 100 to 120 patients per month, you’ll connect with the people you serve on a regular basis.
You also can apply your training in meaningful ways during stroke classes, which meet twice a week for community members who are building back muscle function.
Take Advantage of Local Partnerships
The Newberg community is growing, along with the need for compassionate health care. Numerous assisted living facilities are close by, and one of our students is in residence at Friendsview Retirement Community as part of a partnership that brings physical therapy to the daily lives of seniors.
Our students also serve clinical rotations at clinics and medical facilities in Newberg and the surrounding area. When it comes to preparing for your career, you’ll never run out of options at 黑料网.
