TAYLORVILLE – Sarah Kietzman of Taylorville, a senior physical therapist at Taylorville Memorial Hospital, is the nonprofit hospital’s Colleague of the Month for September.

Kietzman joined Taylorville Memorial Hospital in 2004.

“I work with an amazing rehab team and have the opportunity to see patients of a wide variety of diagnoses and ages,” Kietzman said. “One of the most rewarding parts of my job is watching my patients achieve their goals whether it be taking their first step, returning to sports or returning to their work and daily activities.”

Kietzman uses her knowledge, skill and every resource available to her to deliver advanced care to her patients, for whom she has deep respect, said hospital officials.

Outside of work, Kietzman enjoys attending her children’s sporting events with her husband.
