Speech Pathologist Linda Cook, Occupational Therapist Laura Marchionna, and Physical Therapist Dr. Debra Molsick bring 57 years of combined experience in rehabilitation. They are all certified Arthritis Foundation Exercise Instructors and specialize in geriatric rehabilitation. The Centers for Disease Control defines aging in place as “the ability to live in one’s home and community safely, independently, and comfortably, regardless of age, income or ability level.” HRS’s mission is to promote fitness, well being, and aging in place. Linda, Laura, and Debra live and work in the community and recognize the need for this specialized type of rehabilitation for the local senior population. Owner/Partner Linda Cook elaborated “Many of our clients find it difficult to get out to appointments or are too busy caring for a loved one at home and disregard their own health needs. Our specialized service is not only convenient; it is a necessity for some of our senior population.”
