Churchill joins Ellinwood Hospital and Clinic as Physical Therapy Assistant

Ellinwood Hospital and Clinic welcomes Brooke Churchill, PTA, to its physical therapy team. Brooke Churchill brings a passion for rehabilitation and community care home to Ellinwood.

Churchill began her education at Barton Community College before earning a bachelor’s degree in kinesiology from Kansas State University. She completed her Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) certification from Hutchinson Community College in 2019.

Prior to joining Ellinwood Hospital, Churchill worked in both nursing home and outpatient therapy settings, gaining hands-on experience with a wide range of patients and treatment needs. Her clinical focus includes strengthening and balance—a specialty area she’s especially passionate about.

“I grew up around sports—cross country, basketball and track—and I know how much it means to help someone get back to their daily life, or even back on the field,” Churchill said. “It’s rewarding to now serve the people I grew up with. It’s nice seeing familiar faces again and being able to support my local community.”

Churchill’s addition strengthens Ellinwood Hospital and Clinic’s commitment to providing high-quality, personalized care close to home.
