Celebrating Clinical Success : Peggy Hardin

Ms. Hardin pursued goals in therapy that included improvements in strength for dynamic stability during activities of daily living, upper and lower extremity muscle endurance for walking increased distances, and balance for the progression of activity tolerance.
