From day one, therapists will find themselves part of a culture that values creativity, teamwork, and ‘trying another way’ when faced with challenges. It’s a place where professional growth meets a true sense of purpose.
• Opportunities to Innovate: Our program encourages professionals to think outside the box. Whether it’s finding new ways to incorporate assistive technology into therapy plans or adapting sessions to align with a participant’s goals, there is always room for creativity.
• Making a Tangible Impact: Our therapists get to see the direct impact of their work on participants' daily lives. From enhancing mobility to promoting independence in ADLs, the work we do here truly matters—not just for the participants but for their families and care teams as well.
