#250 What are Model Standards of Care for Outpatient Rehab? with Hannah Redd, SRALab

In this episode, we sit down with Hannah Redd, a physical therapist specializing in neuromuscular disorders at the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab in Chicago, one of the Model SCI Facilities in the US. Hannah offers insight into what makes a Model SCI Facility and the significance of the Model Facility research. She discusses the power of a trans-disciplinary approach, the role of neuro-plasticity in recovery, and the critical health benefits of standing and being upright for anyone with lower extremity paralysis. You'll hear about the evolving standards of SCI care, especially for individuals living with complete spinal cord injuries.

We also explore the latest in innovative rehabilitation technologies, as well as what a personalized patient rehab program looks like. You don't want to miss her practical advice for all medical practitioners, physical and occupational therapists working in outpatient therapy for ways to enhance personal practice and SCI recovery.
