Katherine Lucich is in her third year of the Doctor of Physical Therapy Program at Midwestern University-Downers Grove and will graduate in May of 2021. She received her bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis in 2017. During her time at Midwestern University, she has held the position of Secretary of the College of Health Science Student Council and participated in volunteer work with The Kids Equipment Network. Katie has also helped develop a program to promote better body mechanics in caregivers of pediatric patients and has participated in work-study positions to help increase study materials for her classmates regarding special orthopedic tests. Her role in this project was to develop the research question, come up with a search strategy, conduct the search, write the methods, and analyze the results of the study. She is looking forward to working in the acute care setting at a level-one trauma hospital after graduation.
