Jessica Bach-O’Shea, a native of Orange County New York, earned both her Masters and Doctorate in Physical Therapy from the University of Scranton in Pennsylvania.
Jess very much enjoys working one-to-one with patients and has spent the past several years providing in-home services to our post-surgical total joint population. Jess is well-versed in the treatment of total joint replacements and getting patients on the road to recovery quickly – from in-home to clinic to normal life activities and goals.
As an advocate for safety and preparation, Jess helped pioneer a very important service called “Prehab”- an in-home pre-surgical safety assessment that provides important background information on Durable Medical Equipment needs, as well as safety adjustments/education for optimal mobility throughout the home to ensure a safe post-surgical recovery.
Jess is most passionate about the senior citizen population and has a broad background in geriatric exercise, balance and fall prevention and restoration of functional mobility and strength. When asked about her interest in helping this specific population, Jess replied, “Ensuring our senior citizens obtain optimal function and quality of life is of utmost importance in this world. This population who has given so much deserves the utmost in care and opportunities, and physical therapy can be very integral in this application.”
Jess is also well-versed in telehealth, which is a terrific alternative option for seniors who are nervous about risk of COVID-19 exposure and are homebound at this time.
Jess is currently our company-wide Director of Outpatient Home Services and leads her team in ensuring outstanding intervention in-home to provide a safe, personal and convenient approach for those in need. She is also an avid exerciser and loves to run, spin and hike.
