Links

 

APTA is an important website for me, because it keeps me informed about the most up to date physical therapy techniques. It has a lot of important links that help people to advocate for important health causes. I check this website frequently for research and for information about my field of study.
The NYPTA is the local chapter of the APTA. By checking this website regularly I can keep up to date on what is going on within a state level. I can be made aware of what is going on in the state legislature as far as what laws about Physical Therapy are being enacted.
The LaGuardia Community College website  gives information about how to apply to the physical therapist assistant program at LaGuardia Community College, and answers a number of questions that one might have before applying to the program. This website also provides a job board and upcoming events for alumni of the program.
Therapy Jobs is a website that gives information to both physical and occupational therapists about potenetial job oppurtunities. I plan to use this website after I graduate from LaGuardia to search for a job.
  PubMed is a website run by the government that supplies some free evidence based research for college students and researchers. It is a valuable source of information.
Bike New York is a website that advocates for people who enjoy riding their bikes, and want to  cut down on carbon emissions by using a ecologically friendly way to get around NYC. The website lists different biking events and incorperates ways to get involved in the cycling community and offers classes for cycling beginners.
  New York Cares is an excellent way to find oppurtunities to volunteer within your community. It gives one the chance to get involved and help people within varying age demographics. It builds a sense of fellowship among the people within the New York City area. 
Linkedin is a networking website that allows you to connect with people you have worked with professionally and meet new professionals in the same industry as yourself. I use this website for potential job opportunities and maintaining contact with some of my old colleagues. 

 

PaperBack Swap is a website where I exchange books. You can trade books with people all over the U.S., and U.S. territories, for just the cost of shipping it to someone's house. I have gained many valuable research books for school as well as books that I simply like to read for pleasure. The site sometimes has textbooks, and recieving a free textbook is never a bad thing.
New York Road Runners is an organization which lists marathons that happen within the New York state area. It gives opportunities for people to run in different types of events taking place place throughout New York, as well as for people to volunteer for the runs. This organization promotes a healthy lifestyle through running.
