Sci Forum

Support the Northwest Regional SCI System by donating at http://www.acceleratemed.org/SCI. After spinal cord injury, individuals often work with many different rehabilitation therapists across both inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation as they recover and as function changes over time. We had the chance to talk to several different kinds of rehabilitation therapists about their work including: What is involved in becoming a therapist? What are the main things that each discipline works on with their SCI patients? Why does someone choose to be a therapist and work in rehabilitation? In the first podcast of this series, we talk with Jordan Cabrera P.T., D.P.T., N.C.S. about his work as a physical therapist and learn about what physical therapists focus on when working with people who have had a spinal cord injury.
