You’ll identify barriers to participation, recommend environmental modifications, and advocate for patients’ goals within a multidisciplinary team. The role also offers clear pathways for professional growth within the specialty—opportunities to deepen expertise in neurorehabilitation, pediatrics, geriatrics, or assistive technology—and the chance to mentor junior clinicians as you advance.
