Say Hello to Ellie Guggenheim, Unicare Health’s newest staff member.
Ellie is an occupational therapist and former paramedic whose passion for making meaningful contributions to changing the outcomes for people with special needs has led her to pursue working opportunities across a range of healthcare environments worldwide.
Highlights of her career include working as an occupational therapist at the Special Children’s Centre in Uganda, working with refugee children from Africa and Asia and shifting the dial on rehabilitation outcomes at the Tel Aviv Sourasky Rehabilitation Hospital in Israel through the implementation of client-centered rehabilitation programs.
Since 2016 Ellie has been devoting her time as an occupational therapist for a Parkinson’s program at the Ezra Lemarpe Rehabilitation Centre where she also played a part in developing new resources and therapeutic tools for people with various needs.
Recently happily married and settled in Perth with a toddler that keeps her on her toes, Ellie has joined Unicare Health wanting to make bigger contributions to disability through helping other therapists develop intelligent equipment solutions for specific needs.
Unicare Health is delighted to welcome Ellie on board as our new Occupational Therapist and Client Relationship Manager to provide focussed equipment and client support for our network of growing partners in the disability space, such as Rocky Bay, Nulsen, Therapy Focus, Ability Centre, TADWA, MSWA, Rise Network, Avivo and more .
We trust that her people person nature and skills will prove invaluable to one and all.
