ON A JOURNEY TO GREATNESS

The word “journey” evokes a sense of time and progression. It symbolizes the passage from one phase to another, with each day presenting new opportunities and experiences. Embarking on a journey allows one to immerse themselves in a shared experience that goes beyond our own limited perspective. The beauty lies in the fact that a simple shift in our outlook can open a world of possibilities.

As a multidisciplinary healthcare organization, we understand that embarking on a therapy journey can be a daunting experience for our patients and their families. That is why we strive to create a supportive and nurturing environment that fosters trust, empathy, and understanding. We believe that by working together as a team, we can provide the highest quality of care and help our patients achieve their goals.

Cole Health is dedicated to fostering a culture of continuous improvement. We actively seek feedback from providers, team members, as well as our patients and families, to identify areas of growth. Our organization remains committed to staying at the forefront of advancements in healthcare. We invest in ongoing training and professional development for our team members, ensuring that they are equipped with the latest knowledge and techniques to deliver the best possible outcomes for our patients.

MANAGEMENT REFLECTIONS

Knowledge is key.  Here at Cole Health, we understand the importance of providing our parents and families with knowledge and resources to ensure the best possible outcomes for their child.  We strive to empower our families with the information and tools they need to navigate any challenges they may face.  Our teams have developed comprehensive educational resources that are available to all families, providing monthly empowerment meetings, on-line tutorials, community outreach events and resource listings.  We continue to collaborate with our therapists and providers to help address these unique needs of the families we serve.  Should you have any specific topics or areas of interest that you would like us to develop educational materials on, please feel free to reach out.  Together, we can make a positive difference in the lives of children and their families.

EMPLOYEE SPOTLIGHT

GETTING TO KNOW JULIE DUBOIS, MOT, OTR | CLINICAL COMPETENCY SPECIALIST – COLE PEDIATRIC THERAPY (GREATER HOUSTON)

Q: HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN WITH COLE?
A: In 2015 I was hired on as one of Cole Academy’s first Registered Behavior Technicians (RBT)

Q: ABOUT ME
A: I worked as a RBT for 1 year until I started OT school, it was such a fun filled year, and I have very special memories from that time. In 2019, I was hired back on at Spring as an OT, because OBVIOUSLY I would come back, can’t get rid of me that easy! Then, in 2023 I was promoted to Clinical Competency Specialist (CCS) for OT’s & PT’s. My focus with the CCS position is building clinical skills, time management, and ongoing mentorship of our amazing OT’s & PT’s. My journey has been a great one, and I personally look back at 2015 and am happy with my growth thus far.

Q: WHY COLE?
A: The work environment is just great! Very much a family vibe here, which makes my heart so happy. I love my
coworkers, and now getting to know therapists from all of the sites across Houston (and even some in Washington and NC) has been so much fun! I have always felt so supported, heard and encouraged by all of my managers throughout my time at Cole.
