Everyone’s a winner after national Physiotherapy month Physical Activity Challenge

VCH physiotherapists were challenged by their colleagues to be as active as possible from May 12-18, 2014 as part of national Physiotherapy Month. The goal was to demonstrate that physiotherapists not only work hard but they play hard too! Everyone participated in their usual sporting or active leisure activities and then calculated its equivalent value in kilometres. Prizes were awarded for the most active site as well as individual physiotherapists.

Lions Gate Hospital physiotherapists won the Most Physically Active Site and were presented with a fabulous cake last week. Thanks to Jo Clark, Director Allied Health, for providing the cake! Thanks also to all the physiotherapists across VCH who helped organise the challenge, everyone who actively participated and those who obtained prizes for all the individual physiotherapist site winners. It’s hoped the Physical Activity Challenge will be come an annual event to celebrate national Physiotherapy month.
