Kenny Foundation Increases
Medical Scholarship Grants
Minneapolis, Minn.—-To help meet the drastic need for medical
and paramedical personnel in the field of rehabilitation, the Sister
Elizabeth Kenny foundation has increased its emphasis upon edu
cational and training procedures, according to Marvin L. Kline,
national executive director.
Thirty-five scholarships for study at medical centers and uni
versities throughout the natron were announced by the Kenny
foundation recently.
Kline explained the purpose of the scholarships is to encourage
universities to interest young medical students to specialize ulti
mately in physical medicine and rehabilitation,
"!he specialist in physical medicine is essential to the conduct
of comprehensive rehabilitation programs,” he said. “If effective
rehabilitation programs are to be made available to all of the
victims of neuromuscular disabilities, a greatly-accelerated training
program for specialists in physical medicine and rehabilitation is
essential now.”
He pointed out that the Kenny foundation, now conducting its
1958 annual fund appeal, is extending its training and education
programs to all fields of rehabilitation, including psychology, social
work, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy and
vocational counseling. Public contributions make this program
possible, he declared.
The Kenny foundation pro
vides follow-up treatment as an
important part of its rehabili
tation program. This service
enables patients to return for
periods of up to five years or
more for the purpose of periodic
check-ups.
The I' ny foundation, in line
w.th its policy of assistance for
the acquisition of new scientific
knowledge, continues vital medi
cal research in its own hospitals
and sponsors the continuation of
research in leading hospitals and
universities across the country.
