This week marks my much anticipated (and many times delayed) move to Kaiser's main hospital setting in Roseville. It came after nearly 5 years at the Lincoln offices with the same staff. It was certainly hard to leave and packing up was bittersweet. The move officially took me one trip (thanks to Kaiser couriers for delivering everything else) and one car load complete with walkers, canes, crutches, hula hoops and the like.
My new setting has me with a neurologic gym all to myself. Many aren't sure exactly what I do, so here are some photographic depictions of who I work with:
Pediatric patients with diagnosis such as: torticollis, cerebral palsy, developmental delay, toe walking, traumatic brain injury, stroke, spina bifida
Adult patients- stroke, spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury, Parkinson's Disease, multiple sclerosis, amputees
One goal of the move is to allow my to better utilize my Neurologic Clinical Specialty and focus in on pediatric and adult neuro only. Being in a larger service area now should make that task more realistic. At any rate, I am getting settled in and getting used to the increase from 2.5 mile drive to work to 10 miles....I really cannot complain.
Being at the hospital will also hopefully allow me to spend some time in the NICU and doing some more training for pediatric specialties.

I'm sure that before you know it, you will feel as if you have been there for quite a long while!!
You're going to make big things at KHR baby...I believe in you and love you!
YEAH!! Congrats on FINALLY getting the big move!
Congrats on the move! I started out the new hospital in the OP gym 95% of the time alone. It took a while to get used to it, but now I love it. Enjoy the independence, you will do great!
