Paul Musso, OTR/L (Fall Prevention Program Coordinator)
Paul Musso is a graduate of the Le Moyne College Master of Science in Occupational Therapy Program. During his time at Le Moyne he served as President of the Student Occupational Therapy Association and was actively engaged in community service. One volunteer opportunity he participated in was the Fall Prevention series at a variety of local retirement and senior activity facilities in the Syracuse area. He quickly developed a strong passion for working in this community-based model and enjoys helping people safely fulfill their desired roles and daily occupations. Upon becoming a registered and licensed Occupational Therapist, Paul became the Program Coordinator for the CARE Fall Prevention Program. He helped revamp the program to have a holistic focus on all areas of daily living. Le Moyne College instills the Jesuit idea of Cura Personalis, or caring for the whole person through education of the mind, body, and spirit. This is something that Paul exemplifies and tries to incorporate during each session of the CARE Fall Prevention Series.
