Jamie Dyson, PT, DPT

I have over 30 years of experience working in the acute care environment, specializing in critical care, trauma, and burns. I will teach the cardiopulmonary course and pharmacology, physiology, and complex cases. My passion is to see students excel with complicated cases- taking what they know and determining the best course of care for each patient. I also want to promote physical therapy in the acute care setting because it is the beginning of the continuum of care and is often overlooked by new graduates.

I love the complex cases that come through the critical care setting. To assist students in navigating the complexity and eventually watching them shine is why I do what I do. The greatest reward also comes when those students become leaders in the profession and carry the torch into the future. My newest focus has been on the post-acute sequelae of COVID-19. As a physical therapist in the ICU I witnessed the devastation of the pandemic. For those who survived- they are left with ongoing symptoms that can affect human movement. My goal is to ensure those people receive the care they need through education as well as empowerment.
