Participants during a session of the pickleball program for those with Parkinson’s disease.

Being problem-solvers is part of the job description for physical therapists and physical therapist assistants. In each edition of Success Story, APTA members share their insights into an issue facing them at work and the creative solution for how they addressed it. This installment features Jamie Nesbit, PT, DPT, an assistant professor at Creighton University and a board-certified clinical specialist in both neurologic and geriatric physical therapy. Nesbit and her colleagues designed a program to investigate the effects of playing pickleball for those with PD.
