Hi everyone. Apologies for the inconvenience, there was a issue with the
previous survey they did not allow you to put your email in so we can contact
you. If you have filled out the survey, would you please fill it out one more
time so we are able to contact you via your email address? Thank you so much!

The Academy of Oncologic Physical Therapy has established a Task Force to
establish Entry Level Guidelines for oncology physical therapist practice.
This will establish the FIRST core document as to what oncology knowledge,
skills, and behaviors should be taught within entry level DPT programs and
will be used by educators, clinicians, and students alike to assure that
quality oncologic physical therapy care is being provided to all patients
living with or beyond cancer.
To date, we have completed a series of focus groups last summer and had a
data collection activity at the 2022 Combined Sections Meeting. After these
activities, the task force has developed a draft of the key items brought
forth by these data collection sessions. The next step in the process is to
refine and validate the data collected through a Delphi survey. We are
looking for committed volunteers who are able to complete 3-4 online surveys
that are anticipated to take approximately 30 minutes and participate in
discussion groups after each round of surveys that are anticipated to last
60-90 minutes. Each survey would be followed by a discussion group which
would be scheduled based on the collective availability of the volunteers.
We anticipate needing 12-15 volunteers. If you are able to commit and are
interested in volunteering and sharing your expertise and opinions as to what
DPT students should be taught about cancer and oncology rehabilitation,
please complete this survey by June 20, 2022. We will notify you by June 22nd
of the next steps. Please note that selection for this Delphi survey is
dependent on interest and if we have substantial interest, we may not be able
to accommodate all volunteers for this portion of the project.
