Mary M.

Rehab Program Coordinator
Masters of Occupational Therapy

Mary started as a PRN in 2006 and came on board at Aegis full time in March 2007. She said that flexibility and change are part of what makes her job fun—no two days are the same.

“All of my responsibilities include daily problem solving. Each patient that enters our facility has experienced a loss; strength, cognition, overall daily independence and we help them get that back,” she said. “I love talking with our residents to find out what loss they are struggling with and problem solving how we can improve their lives.”

Excellence in communication is a priority for Mary, especially in making sure that patients’ voices are heard.

“Finding out what our customers need and communicating what we can do to assist them will always result in a more positive workplace,” she said.

The Aegis core programs have been invaluable to Mary as a professional working in the geriatric field.

“The training offered by Aegis in the core programs is special because it is specifically geared towards to population we are working with everyday and designed by therapists in our field,” she said. “You can apply 100 percent of what you have learned.”

Mary’s job duties include supervising and guiding the therapy department; assisting with communication between therapy and other departments in the facility; monitoring treatment planning and minute management; and providing treatment and documents for patients.
