Hosting A Regional Course With APTA Oncology



APTA Oncology has several course offerings looking for partners to host. The host facility will be chosen based on the guarantee that they can draw a minimum of 15 registrants. These registrants can come from the host facility or local facilities.

Please click on the Sample Regional Course Facility Contract for more information.

Clinical Internships & Mentors

The map below provides a snapshot of oncology rehabilitation facilities across the country that are willing to offer clinical affiliations, as well as mentors who have volunteered to share their time and expertise. These lists are ever-evolving!

APTA Oncology will share the list of clinical affiliation sites with academic institutions upon request. It will be the responsibility of the academic institution to contact the facility and to develop the clinical affiliation. Placing your facility’s name on the list of potential affiliation sites in no way obligates you to provide a clinical affiliation for a particular academic institution.

Mentors who have provided their information have shared their contact information in the hope that students, new professionals, and professionals new to oncology rehabilitation or simply wanting to network or collaborate will reach out. Individuals are encouraged to reach out independently to the mentor of their choosing.

Sharing clinical affiliation and mentorship opportunities are great ways for APTA Oncology members to help spread the word about oncology rehabilitation and to educate current and future members.

If you are interested in having your clinic included on this map, please send the following information to info@oncologypt.org: name of facility, contact person, address, phone number, email address, type of facility, and patient population(s). If you are an individual willing to provide mentorship and wish to be included on this map, please reach out to our Secretary, Steve Wechsler (contact info below).

Thank you in advance for your willingness to share your knowledge and experience. Questions? Please contact our Secretary, Steve Wechsler, at sbwechsler1@gmail.com.
