I love working here because it's given me the opportunity to use my clinical background in a leadership position.

0:14

My name is Leslie Casale and I'm a physical therapist. A PT may help someone work on their transfers, their ambulation, their stairs, and potentially look at an assistive device.

0:22

You can accept cases in your geographic area, and you have the benefit of a per diem schedule while still providing meaningful therapy to adults with intellectual disabilities.

0:31

One of the most meaningful parts of my work is realizing how much an individual's life can change when they have access to the right therapies.

0:47

The willingness to grow and try new things here has given me the opportunity to grow beyond my clinical knowledge and develop leadership skills — and to make an impact every single day.

0:55

I would say come with an open mind and a willingness to make a difference. In-home treatment really gives you the opportunity to meet the individual where they are.

1:03

We can see individuals in their home or in the community and really focus on very functional goals for each individual.
