Comprehensive care: Getting out of the traditional pressures of a brick and mortar clinic environment allows us to spend the time with clients who need to be seen, heard and supported in their recovery.
Individualized care: Clients allowing us access into their home environment gives us the unique perspective into how their rehabilitation plan can fit effectively and appropriately into their day to day lives and activities.
