\"TaylorAs the Therapy Director at MRHC, Taylor Nelson<\/a>, PT, DPT, is committed to elevating the therapy department<\/a> to new heights, offering cutting-edge treatments, and fostering a culture of excellence. As a Vestibular Rehabilitation Specialist, Nelson specializes in orthopedic-type conditions, implementing a multifaceted approach, including hands-on and exercise-based treatments to help patients achieve their physical therapy goals. Since starting at MRHC in 2021, Nelson has been dedicated to providing high-quality, evidence-based care.<\/p>\n

“I enjoy working with individuals, and I like to think that I am a good listener. I believe this helps in determining what patients have going on and planning different strategies to improve their condition,\u201d Nelson shared. \u201cMRHC has been more than willing to listen to new ideas and develop new service areas that not only help our department grow but more importantly, provide patients with new treatment methods that will help them achieve their overall goals.\u201d<\/p>\n

Most recently, the therapy department collaborated with the respiratory therapy<\/a> department to develop a Pulmonary Conditioning Program for patients suffering from respiratory issues. This was a service that the hospital was not able to offer previously. This collaborative initiative underscores MRHC’s commitment to meet evolving community healthcare demands.<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel like MRHC is a great representation of what the community of Manning strives to be: progressive in accepting new possibilities while maintaining their core values and respecting each individual that comes through the door,\u201d said Nelson.<\/p>\n

While expanding and enhancing treatment options and services for physical<\/a>, occupational<\/a>, and speech therapy<\/a> at MRHC is one of Nelson\u2019s main priorities, his vision for the therapy department goes even further.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy broad, overarching goal for the department is to be experts in our field so that people know they will receive top-notch, evidence-driven care for whatever condition they are coming to us for,\u201d Nelson emphasized. \u201cI realize that it can be frustrating when it seems like to receive the care you expect and deserve, you must travel long distances. I want our department to have the reputation that we can help, and we are the experts you can rely on.\u201d<\/p>\n

Central to Nelson’s success is the supportive environment cultivated by MRHC administration and his peers. In addition to the support he receives, he is also appreciative of the emphasis on teamwork and mutual respect that fosters a positive work culture where every voice is heard. He points out the administration’s dedication to creating an enjoyable workplace, where collaboration thrives, and professional development is encouraged.<\/p>\n

\u201cA good team environment is always a selling point for a job. At MRHC that is the genuine truth. It is a goal of our administration as well as every department lead to create an environment that listens to each other as well as make it an enjoyable place to work long term,\u201d Nelson shared.<\/p>\n

It is also evident that Nelson plays an important role in helping young professionals grow in their healthcare careers. As Therapy Director, Nelson oversees the physical, occupational, and speech therapy staff. His team is made up of four additional individuals, Physical Therapist, Lucas Schwery<\/a>; Occupational Therapist, Amy Osbahr<\/a>; Speech Therapist, Carrie Scharfenkamp<\/a>; and Intake Coordinator, Stacy Arp \u2013 who all share Nelson\u2019s vision of helping the therapy department continually grow and improve.<\/p>\n

\u201cTaylor has been a major help in preparing me for my career as a physical therapist,\u201d shared Lucas Schwery, DPT. \u201cHe leads by example as to what it means to be a good physical therapist and is always there to answer any questions that I may have.\u201d<\/p>\n

For aspiring physical therapists or those interested in pursuing a general career in healthcare, Taylor offers advice rooted in his own experiences.<\/p>\n

\u201cTake advantage of all the opportunities afforded to you in high school. Many schools provide training to get your CNA before graduation. This would be a great way to get your foot in the door and gain experience in general with the healthcare world. Having that experience would be greatly appreciated when starting the interview process to get into PT school or just expose you to other jobs in healthcare that you initially might not be aware of,\u201d Nelson recommended. \u201cIf someone is dead set on PT, having a solid plan for the steps necessary to become a PT would help in terms of looking into which schools offer direct paths into their PT programs.\u201d<\/p>\n
