A Thriving Student Program at Lemon Grove

LemonGrove1alt

Nerida Gerona is the Director of Rehabilitation in Lemon Grove, CA, and her partnership with local universities for ongoing student internships is legendary in Southern California. In the past 12 months, the Lemon Grove center has taken 15 students from six different schools, with two new schools being added in the early summer. What makes her student programs stand apart is how the Lemon Grove team embraces our Core Values and incorporates them into their students’ experience. The students truly become part of the team and have the experience of being part of a dynamic interdisciplinary rehab program. The team celebrates their successes and ensures that each student gets the opportunity to work with a variety of different diagnoses and disciplines. Because of the extraordinary feedback that the students have about their experience at Lemon Grove, Nerida was one of the clinical educators who were asked to be a part of the certification process for a new Physical Therapy Program at San Diego State University. In addition, four of the therapists at Lemon Grove are now certified instructors. Way to go, Team Lemon Grove!
