• Instruct patients on proper body mechanics and safety protocols in and out of the pool.
• Maintain accurate daily notes and progress reports in Prompt EMR system.
• Work within a multidisciplinary team to ensure seamless care transitions between Aquatic, Spine Therapy and land‑based Physical Therapy.
