Compliance with AccreditationPlymouth State University is accredited by the New England Commission of HigherEducation (NECHE) formerly known as the New England Association of Schools andColleges, Inc. (NEASC), which accredits schools and colleges in the six New Englandstates.Graduation from a physical therapist education program accredited by the Commissionon Accreditation in Physical Therapy Education (CAPTE), 1111 North Fairfax Street,Alexandria, VA 22314; phone; 703-706-3245; accreditation@apta.org) is necessary foreligibility to sit for the licensure examination, which is required in all states.Effective November 9, 2016, the Doctor of Physical Therapy program at Plymouth StateUniversity has been granted Candidate for Accreditation status by the Commission onAccreditation in Physical Therapy Education (1111 North Fairfax Street, Alexandria, VA,22314; phone: 703-706-3245; email: accreditation@apta.org). Candidate forAccreditation is a pre-accreditation status of affiliation with the Commission onAccreditation in Physical Therapy Education that indicates that the program isprogressing toward accreditation and may matriculate students in technical/professionalcourses. Candidate for Accreditation is not an accreditation status nor does it assureeventual accreditation.NOTE: Students admitted and matriculating into the the program in 2017, 2018 and2019 should be aware that if the program fails to achieve accreditation that they will notbe eligible to sit for the licensure examination to practice physical therapy.Filing a Complaint with CAPTEAny person may file a complaint with CAPTE if that person believes that the DPTProgram of Physical Therapy program at PSU is failing to fulfill its commitment toCAPTE standards.To file such a complaint, follow this linkhttp://www.capteonline.org/Complaints/Graded Examination and AssignmentsIn order to maintain compliance with Accreditation, program faculty will occasionallyretain graded examinations and/or assignments while removing any identifyinginformation connecting the graded examination or assignment to a particular student (sothat students remain anonymous). These serve as examples of course evaluation andfeedback provided.9
Program and Clinical PerformanceIn order to maintain compliance with Accreditation, program faculty will regularly collectcourse, program and clinical performance data on students. This data is utilized as partof regular program assessment and removes any identifying information connecting to aparticular student (so that students remain anonymous). These program levelassessments may also form the basis for peer reviewed posters, presentations, papersor books related to the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning regarding the programpedagogy, concepts and curriculum.10
Mission, Philosophy & GoalsDPT Program Mission StatementThe Mission of the DPT Program is to provide a vibrant scholarly community for physicaltherapy in New Hampshire through teaching, research, service and practice contributingto the American Physical Therapy Association's vision of "transforming society byoptimizing movement to improve the human experience." The DPT Program's focus ison the education of physical therapists to serve the community in the fields ofmovement and rehabilitation to provide competent care as autonomous providers,leaders, collaborative team members, and innovators while being respectful, culturallysensitive and socially responsible.DPT Program Educational PhilosophyThe DPT Program’s educational philosophy is based on academic excellence, learnercentered teaching, experiential learning, applied research, regional service, andleadership. The DPT Program embraces the complementary relationship betweenliberal arts and professional studies, between academic and professional development,between service and individual growth, and between the University campus and thelarger community.DPT Program PhilosophyThe DPT Program embraces a critical realist philosophy of science and its associatedconsequences that ontology determines epistemology and the stratification of reality.We fully support the use of evidence-based empirical observations in the developmentof knowledge, and the subsequent rationale development of knowledge for use inpractice, a framework we describe as knowledge-based practice. We believe the bestrepresentations of knowledge for practice are causal structures, including models andnetworks from which logical inferential rules can be applied in clinical decision-making(See Theory to Practice)11
DPT Program GoalsStudents will be:S1. Professional, reflective, self motivated and directed adult learners that arerespectful, culturally sensitive and socially responsibleGraduates will be:G1.

Be a model for students as professional, reflective, self motivated and directed adultlearners that are respectful, culturally sensitive and socially responsible as they pursueinvolvement in professional associations, achievement of promotion and tenure, andimprovement in their academic credentialsThe Program will:P1. Foster a community of scholarly inquiry and reflective practice for physical therapyin New HampshireP2. Examine global aspects of health, movement and wellbeing and its impact onsociety through community partnershipsP3.

profession, and to the delivery of health care services, to physical therapy education,and to educational theory.C2: Consider the changing roles and responsibilities of the physical therapy practitionerand the dynamic nature of the profession and the health care delivery system.13
DPT Education ProgramSummary NarrativeThe DPT curriculum at Plymouth State University is a full time day program with asequential three year, three semester/year, 117 credit curriculum in which students useknowledge from prior coursework to build further knowledge and expertise as theyprogress through the program. In the Patient/Client Management course sequencestudents learn to perform a PT examination and evaluate the findings to formulate adiagnosis, prognosis, and plan of care, and to provide interventions for patients withproblems commonly encountered in physical therapy. Students are involved in practiceexperiences starting with their first semester and throughout the entire curriculumwhether on campus though the Integrated Clinical or off campus through ClinicalEducation. Emphasis is placed on the development of fluid, proficient psychomotor skillsused in practice while the depth and breadth of the students responsibility to solve theproblems progresses. Students will progressively learn to use evidence as a basis for aknowledge based practice demonstrating increasing levels of clinical inquiry anddecision making.The curriculum includes concept and problem based components throughout. Duringthe three year program there is a decrease in the number of courses and an increase inthe number of credits for the primary sequenced courses Integrated Clinical andPatient / Client Management. This reflects the unification of prior concepts in thesecourses as the student progresses toward entry level practice. The purpose here is topromote as much unity in the learning experience as possible for the student.The program concepts are threaded with the themes of theory and practice as tightlyintertwined and necessary compliments of one another. Theory informs current practiceand inspires innovation and transformation. Practice informs current theory as a test ofits ability to model reality and as a guide to future theoretical understanding. Thecurriculum's required 117 graduate credits are a well balanced mix of foundational andclinical theory course work and clinical practice course work and experiences. Theorycourses are divided into three primary areas: Knowledge Foundations, Systems Theoryand Knowledge Development. Practice courses are divided into Practice Courses,Clinical Practice and Practice Reflection. Faculty and students work together to fosteran environment, both in and out of the classroom, of learning and scholarship.Expected CostsAnnual Tuition and FeesRefer students to the financial aid tuition tuition-fees/14

Graduation from the DPT ProgramGraduation from the DPT program requires successful completion in good academicstanding (See Academic Standing) of the full course of study (See Curriculum) within 6calendar years. When students successfully complete this course of study, it is theexpectation of the Program, based on the organization, requirements and sequence ofthe Curriculum and course (including Clinical Education) requirements that the studentis ready for Entry Level Practice as a Physical Therapist and, pending full Accreditationby the Commission on Accreditation of Physical Therapy Education (CAPTE) eligible tosit for the National Physical Therapy Examination to be considered for Licensure as aPhysical Therapist.Therefore, the program is compelled to due diligence in outlining a process to identifyand distinguish false negatives from true negatives. And then how to proceed if it isdetermined to be a true negative (that a student's final Clinical Experience did not reachentry level performance).When a student is not making progress towards achieving entry-level performance ontheir final Clinical Experience it should be identified through prior coursework, includingIntegrated Clinical courses and Clinical Experiences I and II. In such cases remediationstrategies are developed in process and a student's final Clinical Experience (andtherefore graduation may be delayed).The following describes the process when a student does not achieve the required entrylevel performance by the end of their Clinical Experience III. This process starts with apresentation of the case by the DCE to the core faculty with all relevant informationregarding the students progress towards and ultimate performance on the final ClinicalExperience. The DCE's case includes both the student's and clinical instructor's writtenstatements, the CPI including all comments, weekly summaries, and notes from anymeetings during the Clinical Experience. As many details of the case will be presented.After the presentation of facts the DCE then provides their evaluative summary andrecommendation. Much weight is given to the DCE's recommendation for the followingreason. We believe we can minimize the likelihood of false negatives by maintaining asmall set of core clinical education partners and clinical faculty. This includesmaximizing the number of clinical faculty that are credentialed clinical instructors andproviding continuing education and other professional development activities to clinicalfaculty. Through this process the DCE develops a sense of the capabilities of a givenclinical instructor providing the assessment. The DCE is expected to include theseconsiderations in their evaluative summary and recommendation.Outcome 1: If it is deemed that not achieving entry-level performance on ClinicalExperience III was a false negative then the student will proceed to graduation.Outcome 2: If it is deemed that we cannot determine whether not achieving entry-levelperformance on Clinical Experience III was a false negative then the faculty will develop16
a final comprehensive practical clinical examination for the student. If passed thestudent will graduate. If failed the student will proceed to outcome 3.Outcome 3: If it is deemed that the student has not achieved entry level performance onClinical Experience III then a remediation plan will be developed which will first requireon campus coursework and either an extension or repeating of Clinical Experience III.Note: Either outcome 2 or 3 will allow the student due process with an appeal acceptedand considered. Prior to the faculty decision the student's contribution is considered aspart of the DCE presentation of the case.17

Student Learning OutcomesA word on course and program student learning outcomesCourse objectives either progress towards or satisfy the overall program objectives. Thisconnection means that objectives throughout the program are cumulative, progressiveand continuous expectations. Once an objective is met it continues to be expectedduring the curriculum even if it is not an explicitly stated course objective.When course objectives are progressive toward overall program objectives in a coursesequence (i.e. Patient / Client Management I - V) they will be explicitly repeated oftenwith the same language. Progression is achieved in depth and breadth by repetitivecoverage and use of prior and concurrent practical and theoretical knowledge. Forexample, the difference between Patient / Client Management (PCM) I and II is thatPCM II makes full use of the knowledge gained in Clinical & Functional Anatomy, andstarts using knowledge gained in Musculoskeletal Conditions & Management. So theobjective: "Explain screening and the factors that contribute to determining whetherpatients/clients need further examination or consultation by a physical therapist orreferral to another health care professional (7D16)" in PCM II will include more depth inscreening related to musculoskeletal conditions.Course objectives that meet a Program Student Learning Outcome include theStandard 7 code in parentheses at the beginning of the objective. Courseobjectives that progress toward completion of a particular Program StudentLearning Outcome includes the Standard 7 code in parentheses at the end of theobjective.Program Student Learning OutcomesThe program student learning outcomes (PSLOs) are derived from the Commission onAccreditation on Physical Therapy Education (CAPTE) Standard 7: "The curriculumincludes content, learning experiences, and student testing and evaluation processesdesigned to prepare students to achieve educational outcomes required for initialpractice in physical therapy and for lifelong learning necessary for functioning within anever- changing health care environment." These PLSOs fully cover the AmericanPhysical Therapy Associations set of "Minimum Required Skills of the PhysicalTherapist Graduate at Entry Level (BOD G11-05-20-49 [Guideline], 2009).At completion of the DPT program graduates are prepared to:7D1 Adhere to legal practice standards, including all federal, state, and institutionalregulationsrelated to patient/client care and fiscal management.7D2 Report to appropriate authorities suspected cases of abuse of vulnerable24
