County Physical Therapy, LLC (CPT) is pleased to announce a growth in staff and services at their Bangor location. Sarah Grate, MS, OTR/L, CHT has joined the CPT team, adding Occupational Therapy to the rehab treatment available in Bangor.
In addition to being a licensed State of Maine Occupational Therapist, Sarah has achieved the national designation of Certified Hand Therapist from the Hand Therapy Certification Commission. She completed a comprehensive curriculum involving education, training, and mentorship, culminating with a national certification exam. Sarah is one of only 29 Certified Hand Therapists (CHT) in the State of Maine.
Sarah earned her Bachelor of Science degree from Auburn University, and her Master’s of Science in Occupational Therapy from Alabama State University. Her outpatient experience includes The Orthopaedic Center in Huntsville, Alabama, and most recently, Central Maine Therapy Services in Lewiston. Sarah’s specialties include post operative management of hand, wrist, elbow, and shoulder injuries, along with a variety of ergonomic and occupational health assessments and interventions. She also has extensive experience with customized orthotic fabrication, casting, and splinting.
Physical Therapist Peter Madore, CPT’s Clinic Manager in Bangor, is looking forward to working with Sarah. “Sarah’s advanced skills and experience provide an important complement to the rehab programs at CPT, enabling not only direct referrals of Occupational Therapy, but enhancing our physical therapy treatment as well.”
