What’s New
During the past year physiotherapy has provided services to 485 children in our service regions, this includes children ages 0-19 years old. We have had a number of staff changes and look forward to November when we should be fully staffed, welcoming back all our physiotherapists that were on maternity leave this year. Current physiotherapists are Fabiola Toyata, Jenny Hogan and Sandy VanKleeck. Returning in the fall are Bobbie Turner and Regan Daoust. We had 1 UNBC physiotherapy student this year and look forward to having more students once were are fully staffed again.
