One of the leading causes of death in the United States is Sudden Cardiac Arrest. During the month of October, we aim to join in the effort to raise awareness about National Sudden Cardiac Arrest Awareness Month. At first mention, many individuals assume that sudden cardiac arrest is the same as a heart attack, but they are in fact quite different.

The effects of mental illness take an extreme toll on the lives of millions of individuals worldwide. During the first week of October, we join other mental health advocates in observing Mental Illness Awareness Week. It is important to raise more awareness about mental illness and how common symptoms can be for any individual, no matter their circumstance.

This month, we are shining a light on one of our talented Speech-Language Pathologists, Renée Losey! Renée obtained her Bachelor’s in Psychology from Nevada State College in Henderson, NV before moving to Reno, NV to pursue a Master’s in Speech-Pathology and Audiology.

Our featured team member this month is Robert Buhl, COTA!

Robert has worked as an occupational therapist assistant or in a similar position in the industry for 21 years. He has worked for 13 years full-time and the remainder part-time.

We’re excited that our team has began servicing the Northern Nevada communities this month/ We looking forward to working with new clients and helping them to achieve maximum independence in their lives.

This month we are featuring new grad and occupational therapist, Arian Wiesen. Arian joined Tilton’s Therapy after obtaining her state licensure and has worked for the company for about 4 months. She is enjoying the work and the people she interacts with throughout the day. (I’d say this is a great start to her first occupational therapy job).
