Big thanks to Professor Taylor Arman from the Athletic Training program for teaching our students some specialty kinesiotaping skills! Kinesiotaping is a valuable intervention in many contexts outside of athletics including upper extremity and neurological rehabilitation!

Recently, Dr. Maud Makoni and student Logan Hibler were able to report on the community mobility assessment our students completed on the Naperville Library. They provided an introduction to OT, reviewed the assessment, and provided recommendations to improve accessibility and mobility at the library. The report was based on work done by students as part of their Specialty Interventions course with Dr. Makoni, and Logan was an incredible ambassador for the program and his fellow students. Way to go! See our post from 2/10/26 for more information on the community mobility projects our students take on.

Thanks to Professor Erin Luy, our entry-level MOT students got hands on practice leading pediatric interventions focused on activities of daily living, or ADLs for short. ADLSs are activities that most people do every day, like getting dressed, tying shoelaces, brushing teeth, styling hair, and bathing to name a few. Making everyday activities that are hard for kids into a fun therapy activity is a real life skill our students are learning in the classroom. Thanks to the professors children coming in on their day off, our students are one step closer to being ready for OT practice! Thanks !
