The remarkable story of DPT graduate Cindy Chaconas

Dr. Cindy Chaconas is a 2007 DPT graduate. Shortly after graduation she was diagnosed with stage two breast cancer. She and her husband Dr. Eric Chaconas, a faculty member in St. Augustine, have a remarkable story. A huge THANK YOU to the 50+ students who volunteered at the 10th Annual Pink Up the Pace event!

Fall Career Fair

What do recruiters say about USAHS students and graduates? We talked to some at the Fall Career Fair in St. Augustine - check out the video. Upcoming career fairs include include San Marcos on October 12th and in Miami on October 19th.

New Driving Simulation Technology

Dr. Jerilyn Callen, OT faculty at the Austin campus, introduces new technology in the Center for Innovative Clinical Practice (CICP). PT and OT practitioners can use the driving simulators to evaluate and rehabilitate drivers who have sustained functional loss due to accidents, trauma or medical conditions. For high-risk impairments, simulators can provide needed patient insight into their risk behind the wheel without exposing anyone to the real dangers of the road.

New CICP Video

In celebration of National Healthcare Simulation Week, USAHS has published this new video about the Center for Innovative Clinical Practice (CICP). Special thanks to the St. Augustine faculty, students and staff who participated in the filming. Please feel free to share the video via social media - check the university Facebook page for a link on that platform.

Don't Be Trippin'

The St. Augustine campus hosted Don't Be Trippin' in celebration of national Falls Prevention Awareness Day. The event was multi-disciplinary and included students, faculty and community representation offering education, health screenings, and activities to dozens of older adults from the St. Augustine community.

Dr. Todd Bourgeois on American Ninja Warrior

Congratulations to DPT faculty member Dr. Todd Bourgeois, who competed in the "American Ninja Warrior" finals. This summer was the third time Bourgeois competed on Mount Midoriyama course. It may have been the most meaningful due to the physical fatigue he faced. The day before competing Bourgeois and three others paddled from the Bahamas to Florida’s East Coast on a paddleboard as part of a fundraiser for Crossing for a Cure. The event raised more than $275,000 for cystic fibrosis research. This video and news story is from the St. Augustine Record.

My Brother's Keeper

“We did everything together. We had the same group of friends, played on the same hockey team in high school. It’s always been that way for us,” Joshua said.

Whether it was on or off the ice, they were always together. They even share a matching tattoo. It wasn’t surprising then that they both decided to pursue undergraduate degrees in exercise sports science at Concordia University in Irvine. And they did it together.

“We were athletes and very interested in physical health and well-being, and being in tune with the body so it just made sense,” Kyle said.

It was during their undergraduate experience that they were both drawn to a career in physical therapy. After college the brothers worked as physical therapy aides and recognized that PT was something they wanted to pursue as a career. READ MORE
