We are just under three weeks away from our Annual Mind Your Brain Conference. We are excited to once again offer this event for free including a boxed lunch to all of our attendees. We started this conference a decade ago in order to provide a place for TBI survivors to connect, learn and find resources. Each year, we are thrilled to see it continue providing that to our TBI community. From featured speakers, to resources we have it. A big thank you to our partners at Penn Medicine for hosting us and our friends at GSPP Rehabilitation for helping each year to make this event a great success.

March is Multiple Sclerosis (MS) Awareness Month. MS affects the communication between the brain and body, leading to symptoms like fatigue, muscle weakness, vision issues and balance challenges. While there is no cure, advancements in treatments and rehabilitation have made it possible to better manage the disease and improve quality of life for those living with MS. Targeted rehabilitation, such as physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy, can help alleviate these symptoms and improve overall well-being.

During the Winter Olympics, GSPP's Penn Medicine Rehabilitation team at Rittenhouse held a friendly, creative competition, with Team Peru taking home Gold! 🥇

In addition to employee competition, the team organized a patient Olympics, which had a profound impact on the patient athletes who participated. Patients cheered each other on and played fairly. Therapists adapted games to make it an all-inclusive event.

Huge round of applause to committee members for putting in the hard work to referee games and serving as the brains behind the activities. 👏

A special Thank you to three student members of the Technology Student Association (TSA) at Welsh Valley Middle School who came to GSPP's Rittenhouse location for the next important step in their community service project.

To help improve literacy in their community, the students organized a book drive at their school, rallying classmates, teachers and families around a shared goal. Their efforts resulted in the collection of more than 3,000 books for BookSmiles, a non-profit organization that distributes books to promote childhood literacy.

But that was only the first step. The students next set their sights on installing a Little Free Library to further improve access to books for everyone in our community.

That’s where partnership made the difference.

GSPP Rehabilitation's Facilities team, led by Associate Hospital Executive Director Derrick Campbell, stepped in to design and construct a permanent Little Free Library outside Rittenhouse, 1800 Lombard Street. When the students visited in February, they worked alongside our team to paint and personalize the structure. It transformed into a welcoming, vibrant space where neighbors can take a book, leave a book and share the joy of reading.

The library now stands outside our building at 18th and South Street and serves as more than a wooden structure. It represents student leadership, community collaboration and the meaningful impact we can make when we work together.

It’s a reminder that improving the health of our community goes beyond our walls and that sometimes, it starts with something as simple and powerful as a book.

Thank you to all who supported this important project.

Christina Pettet, PT, DPT, NCS, a physical therapist at Penn Medicine | Good Shepherd Rehabilitation Outpatient Therapy's Radnor location, is the first to be recognized through GSPP's new Scholarly Spotlight.

At the 2025 Scottsdale Headache Symposium, Christina, as returning presenter, helped clinicians strengthen an often-overlooked component of headache care: the physical examination. Her session, “A Master Class in Physical Exam Skills for the Headache Provider: Evaluating Co-Occurring Conditions,” brought together providers from multiple disciplines for a practical, hands-on exploration of assessment techniques.

The session's goal was simple and impactful: to help headache providers better identify when musculoskeletal factors may be contributing to symptoms and recognize when physical therapy should be part of a comprehensive care plan.
Through her continued scholarly engagement, Christina’s work supports more comprehensive evaluations and, ultimately, better outcomes for patients.

“I hope it encourages multidisciplinary thinking and expands how we approach headache care,” Christina said.

Her simple advice to colleagues considering scholarly work?
“Just sign up and keep practicing,” she said.

Good Shepherd Penn Partners

Good Shepherd Penn Partners opened its doors on July 1, 2008, bringing together two nationally respected healthcare organizations to provide the region with a continuum of post-acute care that includes inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation and a long-term acute care hospital.

Penn Medicine's Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Penn Medicine’s Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PM&R) program has been in existence for more than 100 years. In 2004, the PM&R department embarked on a strategy to improve and expand its clinical, education and research programs, while strengthening relationships with Penn Medicine’s clinical departments and outside organizations.

One of the department’s main objectives was to coordinate post-acute care throughout the Penn Medicine System. As post-acute care existed at Penn Medicine earlier this century, each of the system's acute-care hospitals offered independent rehabilitation services. The need for a consistent clinical approach to rehabilitation care throughout the Penn Medicine System was a main impetus for the formation of Good Shepherd Penn Partners.

Penn Medicine’s PM&R department sought outside expertise — a partner with post-acute care management expertise and outstanding patient outcomes. Good Shepherd Rehabilitation Network (GSRN), based in Allentown, Pennsylvania, was selected over several organizations because of its expertise in long-term acute care and rehabilitation and for its successful experience with health-care partnerships. What began as a conversation between Richard Salcido, M.D., Chair of the Department of PM&R and Program Director of the PM&R Residency Program at Penn Medicine, and Sally Gammon, President and CEO of GSRN, turned into a dynamic joint venture that was named Good Shepherd Penn Partners to signify the synergy between the two organizations. Combining the respected research and clinical expertise of Penn Medicine with GSRN’s more than 100-year tradition of evidence-based rehabilitation care resulted in the optimization of post-acute care for patients in the Philadelphia region. With similar core values, the two organizations were able to come together to work through a complex start-up at Penn Medicine at Rittenhouse and to break down the silos and align post-acute care throughout the Penn Medicine system.
