Our company was founded in 1983 by Abraham Jacob, PT, as a Medicare certified rehabilitation agency. At that time, our original outpatient office was opened on Longfellow Street in Vandergrift, PA and relocated in 1985 to Weinels Crossroads in neighboring Allegheny Township due to the successful growth and the need for additional space.
In 1991, Abraham’s son, Brian R Jacob, took over WESTARM as President and began to expand outpatient locations and to diversify services to better serve the rehabilitation needs of our communities. Today, WESTARM is the largest outpatient family-owned rehabilitation provider in the Alle-Kiski area and has been recognized as the “Best Physical Therapy Facility” in the VND Readers Choice Awards survey numerous times.
Today, WESTARM’s tradition of Jacob family leadership continues with Brady A. Jacob, who is Brian‘s son and the grandson of Abraham. He currently serves as Vice President responsible for managing daily operations and strategic administration. Brady graduated in 2011 from the University of Miami with a Business degree in entrepreneurship and received his Masters’ in
Healthcare Services Administration from IUP in 2021.
In order to meet the growing demand for homebound patients, WESTARM Home Health was started in 2010. Our homecare staff can progress and easily transition patients from their homes into our local outpatient facilities when they are ready. WESTARM also contracts with five local school districts to provide occupational and physical therapy to their students.
Since inception, we have been dedicated to providing superior quality care in a time efficient manner to restore our patients to their highest functional level. Our courteous and knowledgeable staff strives for complete customer satisfaction.
