Thanks for working here this week: Tanner Low, MS, CCC-SLP, The Legacy Living and Rehabilitation Center
- Posted On:
Campbell County Health is proud of its employees, and we want the CCH family and the Campbell County community to know about the good work that they do for this organization.
Meet Tanner Low, a Speech-Language Pathologist (CCC-SLP) at the The Legacy Living and Rehabilitation Center in Gillette, Wyoming. Tanner earned a Bachelors of Science in Communication Disorders and Masters of Science in Communication Disorders from Brigham Young University. He’s worked at The Legacy since 2019.
Tanner was inspired to work in health care because he’s very interested in working with adults who need help with language and speech after trauma or disease. “Speech-language pathology is a varied field. You can encounter speech therapists working with virtually any age-group with a variety of disorders. That progression, from evaluation to discharge, helps me to know I can make a difference,” he says.
When asked who his health care hero is, Tanner says his wife. “She is an RN who worked for both a trauma ICU and outpatient general surgery office while we lived in Utah. Her desire to help people and be the best she can be has always pushed me to do better, particularly as I was going through school,” he says.
When Tanner isn’t at work, he loves to discover, listen to, rank, and critique different kinds of music. “I’m a bit of a music nerd. I’m partial to electronic, pop, and indie rock music, but I’ll dabble in pretty much everything,” he says. “I also love spending time with my family—my wife and daughter—as well as my friends, playing board games and finding interesting places to eat or shop.”
We asked Tanner what he likes most about working for CCH and what excellence every day means to him. Check out his response:
“I love CCH’s standards of excellence that carry through all facets of care. I’ve had experiences in the hospital, acute rehab, and home health, and the continuum of care is amazingly seamless. The fact that I’ve been able to see this at work and participate in all stages of recovery makes me appreciate all of the work that goes into helping people get better.
I especially love working with all of the therapists and nurses here at The Legacy. They all have special skill sets for interdisciplinary care that, when they come together, provide an intricate web of support for all of the needs of the patients and residents. Our rehabilitation team especially amazes me. The knowledge they collectively possess is deep and makes me feel lucky to be part of such a brain trust for our patients.
Excellence Every Day to me means providing the kind of care for our patients that we would feel comfortable giving if the patient’s family members were always in the room.”
Thanks Tanner for all that you do for our residents. We are proud to have you on our team.
