About Taylor
Taylor Larson, COTA/L, CLWT, is a certified occupational therapy assistant at Campbell County Health (CCH) Rehabilitation Services. She earned her Associate of Applied Science in Occupational Therapy Assistant from Casper College in Casper, Wyoming. She is also a Certified Lymphedema and Wound Therapist.
Taylor began her healthcare career at age 18 as a certified nursing assistant (CNA) while pursuing a degree in radiologic technology. Through her experiences caring for patients of all ages, she discovered the meaningful impact occupational therapy can have on a person's quality of life. Inspired by what she witnessed, Taylor changed her career path to occupational therapy and has never looked back.
Taylor is passionate about helping patients regain their independence and return to the activities that bring purpose and joy to their lives. She enjoys the creativity that occupational therapy offers, whether adapting everyday tasks, modifying environments, or developing personalized solutions to help patients overcome challenges and reach their goals.
Taylor believes in building meaningful relationships with her patients and creating a positive, supportive environment throughout their rehabilitation. She takes time to understand each patient's concerns, explain their treatment, and involve them in decisions about their care. Through encouragement, open communication, and humor, she helps patients feel comfortable and confident as they work toward greater independence.
One of the most rewarding parts of Taylor's work is watching patients gain confidence, achieve their goals, and rediscover their ability to participate in everyday activities. She also values the supportive team at CCH Rehabilitation Services and appreciates the opportunity to continually learn and grow alongside her colleagues.
Originally planning to return to Montana, Taylor moved to Gillette with her husband in 2013 and quickly found a place to call home. She appreciates Gillette's small-town atmosphere and its proximity to outdoor destinations such as the Black Hills, Bighorn Mountains, and Keyhole Reservoir.
Outside of work, Taylor enjoys spending time with her husband and daughter. Together, they love camping, fishing, traveling, exploring the outdoors, and experiencing new adventures as a family.
