Do you provide clinical care for older adults? Or, are you worried about yourself or a loved one experiencing a fall? We are conducting a study to generate national research priorities on fall prevention among older adults living in the community that are grounded in the values and insights of the relevant communities.

Sarah Hutchison, OPA’s CEO, presented to Queen’s University’s MScPT first-year students on November 18. It was a great opportunity to engage with the future of the profession and share information about the role of professional associations in supporting members over their career. And of course, a lively discussion about Scope of Practice and the focus of advocacy. Thank you to Patrick Cayen for the invitation, and we wish these students the best of luck during their first year of studies.
