One day. Big ideas. Different perspectives. Real conversations about where rehabilitation goes next.

We've labelled it a conference for simplicity's sake. What we're really creating is a gathering of collective intelligence—bringing together the people who are shaping, delivering, funding, supporting, and advocating for rehabilitation.

Come ready to challenge assumptions, learn from colleagues, make connections, and leave with ideas you can actually use.

𝗦𝗧𝗔𝗬𝗜𝗡' 𝗔𝗟𝗜𝗩𝗘. 𝗥𝗘𝗧𝗢𝗢𝗟𝗜𝗡𝗚. 𝗟𝗔𝗡𝗘-𝗖𝗛𝗔𝗡𝗚𝗜𝗡𝗚.

The rehabilitation landscape keeps changing.

So how do we build practices that don't just survive uncertainty—but adapt, diversify and grow through it?

We're bringing four very different perspectives together:

Daniel Carroll | Hudson Wealth
How to Mitigate the Clinical Effects of Financial Stress on ABI Recovery

Jessie Farran | WSIB
WSIB's Healthcare Strategy

Kyle Whaley | Propel Physiotherapy
Beyond MVA: Our Company's Story of Transformation

Kim Lamont | Essential OT
Beyond MVA: Our Company's Story of Transformation

Financial resilience.
Diversification.
Transformation.
Moving beyond traditional MVA models.

Real stories. Real strategies. Real conversations about what comes next.

If your practice is navigating change, uncertainty or the need to rethink how you do business, you'll want to hear this panel.

AI. HYPE OR GAME CHANGER?

We're putting it on the table.

Our Using AI with Intelligence & Integrity panel brings together four perspectives to tackle one of the biggest questions facing rehabilitation right now:

How do we embrace what's possible without losing sight of what's responsible?

Chris Dawson, Lerners LLP — Lead Panelist
One of ORA's Annual Gold Supporters

Diedre Sperry
Beyond the Hype: Ethics of AI in ABI Rehab

Safiya Rajwani
Where Technology & AI Responsibly Fit into Scaling In-Home Care

Justin Kline
Why AI Matters Now

We'll talk ethics.
We'll talk innovation.
We'll talk practical applications.
We'll talk about what comes next.

And yes—we'll ask the uncomfortable questions too.

Because AI isn't something we can simply watch from the sidelines.

The future of rehabilitation is being shaped right now.

Come be part of the conversation.
