Episode 1992: Rethinking Geri Rehab: The Hyphen Model

What if the future of geriatric rehab looked less like a traditional clinic—and a lot more like a gym? In this episode, we sit down with Dustin Jones to talk about Hyphen, a gym-first model that brings skilled rehabilitation, group fitness, and lifelong health under one roof for older adults. Dustin breaks down where the idea for Hyphen came from, how the model allows clinicians to leverage Medicare benefits as an on-ramp to long-term fitness, and what they've learned while launching and scaling the concept. We also dive into why ICE Physio-trained clinicians are uniquely positioned to thrive in this environment—combining skilled rehab with coaching, fitness, and a higher standard for what aging can look like. If you're a clinician who loves working with older adults but wants to think beyond the traditional boundaries of geriatric rehab, this conversation is for you.
