Physical Therapy Volunteer/Internship Suggestions

[allahsen]

Hi Everyone,
I am currently a sophomore in college and recently I decided I wanted to go into physical therapy instead of pharmacy. I would like to start getting experience in the field of physical therapy asap, and was just wondering if anyone had an good internship or volunteer suggestions besides volunteering or interning in a hospital or physical therapy practice.

Hey, I also decided on PT instead of Pharmacy a while ago too!

Pretty much everyone is going to tell you to just try to get observation hours in a number of different settings, preferably 3 or maybe 4 and make each one at least 50 hours, maybe 100. Or additionally, get a job as a PT aide/tech. There are lots of different kinds of settings where physical therapy is done, search around the forum and you will see at least a billion threads about this.
