A volunteer “pit crew” of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PM&R) residents, Pediatrics PM&R faculty members and a medical student recently teamed up with faculty and students at the University of Central Arkansas (UCA) to build modified toy vehicles for children with significant mobility impairment. The “Go Baby Go” event, hosted by UCA in partnership with Arkansas Children’s Hospital, provided retrofitted ride-on toy Jeeps for six children with special needs. The UAMS crew included Associate Professor and PM&R Section Chief Dr. Laura Hobart-Porter, Professor Dr. Vikki Stefans, physical therapist Mike Nelson, occupational therapist Frank Bregy, RN Becky Bregy, residents Dr. Jonathan Ross, Dr. Neha Anand and Dr. Daniel Trinh and third-year medical student Aaron Gaul.
