Infants for PT Group Labs

Healthy infants/children under 3 years of age are needed for lab sessions in the physical therapy (PT) graduate level course entitled ‘Motor Development across the Lifespan’.

Please consider volunteering and bringing your infant/child for one or more fun sessions where PT students will observe and test (as you allow) different aspects of your child’s development and ask you some questions about your child’s development.

You will be with your child all the time and two PT instructors will guide the small groups of students during the labs. Your child will receive $15 per lab session he/she will participate in. You, as parent or legal guardian, will be asked to sign a consent form for your child's participation as well as a W-9 in order for your child to receive the check. Your child's Social Security number is required of this form.

You may choose to participate in one, two, or all three lab sessions held on the same day with different groups of students. All the labs are held in the Center for Health Sciences (CHS), room 207. If you require parking, please let us know as we will have a few spaces assigned near the building.

The three 1-hour Infants Group labs will be held on Tuesday, November 9th at 10:30-11:30; 1:30 to 2:30; and 3:30-4:30.

Please come 10 minutes before each session and bring a few toys your child prefers as well as a drink for your child; we will have water bottles.

If you are interested and/or would like more information, please contact Kathy Schlough, PT, DSc, lab instructor, at 607-592-7064 or ptkathys@twcny.rr.com.
