CONTINUING EDUCATION

Each month, Therapy Rehabilitation Services hosts an in-service education program for our employees and other interested licensed therapists who wish to attend. Meetings focus on a wide range of topics and feature prominent speakers. These programs are our way of helping our therapists expand their base of knowledge, keep current on new research, understand changes in laws and network with other professionals.
