At our Fort Myers Home Health location, Physical Therapist Sherese has a reputation for embodying the Aveanna Way. The Aveanna Way is a program focused on our patients' needs and satisfaction. It is a promise to the individuals we serve that we will partner with and support them in their unique healthcare goals. Sherese lives out this commitment every day, helping her patients regain function and bringing hope during challenging times.
Sherese's patients have shared again and again just how dedicated she is to their recovery and to meeting them where they are. She customizes the therapy plan for each patient to address their specific needs. Sherese's patients praise her compassion, professionalism, flexibility, and diligence. Her enthusiasm for physical therapist shines through every visit and with every patient.
Along with her passion for care, Sherese brings a wealth of knowledge to her work. "I've worked as a physical therapist for 29 years," she shares. "I have had an amazing career. I started in outpatient right out of school and after about 11 years transitioned into home health for a greater degree of flexibility. I felt like it was an opportunity for me to get to people who might not necessarily be able to get to me in an outpatient setting."
Sherese found more than just flexibility and a new patient population when she became a home health physical therapist. She found connection and an incredible sense of purpose in the Aveanna Way. "I consider it an honor to care for my patients," Sherese says. "Each visit is an opportunity to give them the tools that they need. I can make a difference in the lives of the people I meet. I love that! It is an amazing feeling to see the hope in a patient's face. That's a journey we take together."
Each patient's journey is unique. Sherese is dedicated to walking beside them and helping them through any obstacles they face. And as she supports her patients on their paths to hope and recovery, Sherese is supported by her Aveanna team. "I have a great office in Fort Myers with a wonderful team of coworkers, a great executive director, very supportive clinical managers and supervisors, and an endlessly patient office manager," Sherese says. "My mentor here at Aveanna has also been with me from the beginning, helping me grow to the person that I am. My story wouldn't be what it is without these people."
The Aveanna Way is a commitment that our clinicians and support staff make individually, and it is a promise that we keep as a team. Our team is better for having PT Sherese on board. We are proud of her expertise, compassion, and dedication and so thankful for the excellent care she provides. She represents the Aveanna Way in everything she does.
