TESTIMONIALS
"My wife of 35 years passed away from Breast cancer on August 16th 2015. Her name was Linda. Linda was fortunate to have had Sarah Timleck as her Occupational Therapist. Sarah is fortunate to have found her calling, as most aren’t lucky enough to find their passion in life. Sarah is a true professional in her field, but the gift that Sarah possesses is her caring nature for people. Anyone that has ever had the privilege of dealing with Sarah will see this the first time they meet her.”
- George: Spouse of Client
“I recently had the opportunity to work with Sarah in a course development and co-instructor partnership. Her commitment to best practice and collaborative style, as well as her knowledge and expertise in older adult and dementia care, supported the creation of a 2nd year OTA course at Durham College. Her dedication to knowledge transfer and hands-on learning allowed students to apply new information and relate this information to real clinical practice based case studies."
