An open house was held on Nov. 24 to celebrate the expansion of West Texas Rehab of Ozona. The event drew guests from Abilene, San Angelo, and Ozona. The expansion doubles the floor space of the facility, which is located in a county-owned building at 908 First Street. The remodeling project allowed the Rehab to add much-needed space and equipment in the physical therapy program, install an occupational therapy department, complete with an activity gym, kitchen for adults, a specially equipped area for pediatrics programs, and initiate audiological services, including a hearing testing booth, tympanometer and audio scan.
