Christina Bell,
MA, OTR/L and Angela R. Baker, Ph.D., OTR/L,
formed their alliance in Los Angeles, CA when Christina was
attending the University of Southern California, not long after Angela
had graduated from the same #1 ranked OT school. Christina, the
student, and Angela, the clinical instructor, immediately bonded
through hard work and dedication to the service of children with
special needs. Working in a small suburban school district, Angela
demonstrated extraordinary commitment to innovative therapy in an
often exhausting line of work. Christina, under the heady influence
of
the academic atmosphere at USC, was inspired to initiate a new and
invigorating project: publication. In the years following graduation,
Christina and Angela founded OT to the Rescue, while adding to
their repertoire of treatment activities for the book-in-progress.
Autism & DD
at School; OT to the Rescue was the inaugural
endeavor for OT to the Rescue. OT to the Rescue was founded by
Christina and Angela to share with a broader audience the creative
ideas they implement every day. This forward-thinking organization
strives to offer innovative, high-quality occupational therapy services
to children. By presenting the best and newest occupational therapy
treatments, they hope to serve the growing population affected by
autism and other developmental disabilities.
OT to the Rescue
now serves all of Southern California and offers
many products. They provide publication, in-service, consultation,
evaluation, and treatment. Their outreach includes online blogs and
surveys, as well as community events and speaking engagements.
In addition, they have developed an ever-growing resource library,
available at www.OTtotheRescue.com.
OT to the Rescue's
evolution from graduate internship to thriving
business has been driven by Angela and Christina's dedication to
quality occupational therapy for those in need. They are energized
by their continued expansion and involvement in the community.
They are committed to developing novel solutions to improve the
lives of people with special needs.
