Dear Physical Therapy Student Intern,
We look forward to your clinical affiliation at The Johns Hopkins Hospital.
The Physical Therapy Department provides a wide range of inpatient and outpatient services. The specifics of services provided and hours of operation are included on the Clinical Site Information Form (CSIF). The Physical Therapy Department is open 365 days per year. Your schedule will depend upon patient care needs and your clinical instructor’s schedule, and may include weekend coverage. Students are responsible for arranging their own housing.
While at the Johns Hopkins Hospital you will have access to the Welch Medical Library, located one block north of Wolfe Street entrance of the hospital. Students with affiliations lasting eight weeks or longer can set up an email account through the library at the beginning of the affiliation.
If you have not received information from the ACCE at your school please contact the clinical education coordinator, Kelly Daley, three to four weeks before your clinical affiliation begins to obtain the name of your clinical instructor and the name of the service to which you are assigned for your internship. Kelly can be reached via email atkdaley3@jhmi.edu.
We would like to tailor your clinical experience to your specific learning style, educational interests and requirements. In order that we may better understand your preferred learning style and previous clinical experiences, please complete and return the learning style questionnaire and skills self-assessment one month prior to your start date if you are a full time student. Part time students can bring the forms their first day. We recommend that full time students also include a resume.
