Professor Mike Voight reports. . . .
During the October celebration of national physical therapy month, approximately 100 Belmont University Physical Therapy students and faculty volunteered their time to assist with the organization and on-site operation for the 4th annual “Dierks Bentley Miles & Music for Kids” charity motorcycle ride and concert to benefit Vanderbilt’s Children Hospital. The ride took place on October 11th when thousands of leather-wearing folks gathered on their ‘hogs’ to ride along-side Dierks Bentley for his annual Miles and Music for Kids. Starting off at the Cool Springs Harley Davidson in Franklin, TN; the ride wound its way through the Natchez Trace down to Riverfront Park downtown Nashville. There, Dierks was joined by some his best celebrity buds to entertain the masses … literally THOUSANDS of people all to raise money for Vanderbilt Children’s Hospital.

Dr. Scott McPhee, Professor of Occupational Therapy, had a chapter recently published in the book, What you need to know about Nursing and Health Care in the United States (B.L. Nichols & C.R. Davis, Eds., New York: Springer Publishing). This book is intended for foreign trained nurses who are applying for a visa to work in the United States.
The chapter Dr. McPhee wrote details the history of occupational therapy, education requirements, licensure, and areas of practice (with descriptions of typical types of patients and goals for therapy).
