Meet the Team #01 – A Physical Therapist, Respiratory Therapist and a Physiatrist Share their “Why”

Rehabilitationships

We’re back with another episode of Rehabilitationships, a podcast from Mary Free Bed Rehabilitation. We are usually digging into the intersection of rehabilitation and relationships by pairing up a patient with their clinician for a great conversation.
For the next couple episodes, we are going to break from that format to get to know some of the team at Mary Free Bed. We will be talking with health care professionals across our rehabilitation system.
In these discussions, we’ll learn about the different types of clinicians we have helping patients in their recovery. They’ll also share what makes them tick and why they keep coming back day after day to serve others.
In this episode, we feature three of the team from Grand Rapids. They are:
Andrew Young, PT, DPT, physical therapist at Mary Free Bed Rehabilitation Hospital - (1:40)
Andrew works as an inpatient physical therapist and has seven years’ experience in outpatient therapy. He talks about his work as part of Mary Free Bed’s medically complex team and how he got into rehabilitation.
Rebecca Brower, RRT, respiratory therapist at Mary Free Bed Rehabilitation Hospital - (14:28)
Next, we shine the spotlight on respiratory therapy and how it’s included in rehabilitation. We talk with Rebecca who works in the Intensive Medical Rehabilitation Unit at Mary Free Bed, and how she’s seen her team grow at the hospital.
Adam Lamm, MD, Mary Free Bed Rehabilitation Hospital - (27:59)
Teaching the future of rehabilitation is vital to Adam Lamm, MD, at Mary Free Bed. When Dr. Lamm isn’t seeing patients on the outpatient side, he’s leading the hospital’s Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Residency program. Learn more about his work as a physiatrist and why it’s important to the hospital to host its residency program.
We’ll be back in our next episode with conversations from the team at Mary Free Bed at Covenant HealthCare. Keep an eye on your feed for that, and in the meantime, make sure to rate, review, and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.
