Trina Radske-Suchan, PT, CSCS
Trina received her Master in Physical Therapy from the University of Iowa and has dedicated her career to promoting and advocating for healthy lifestyles to reduce the burden of disease and disability on individuals and society. Physical Therapists are uniquely educated and trained to adapt health care recommendations to the community environment where individuals live, work, learn, and play. Trina’s expertise as a physical therapist was essential in the development of the first YMCA-hospital partnership nationally that created the YMCA Healthy Living Center (Y-HLC) in Clive, Iowa employing and administering physical therapy and medically-integrated programs and services under YMCA management. As the Y-HLC Medical Program Executive from 2009-2017, she led the Y-HLC medically-integrated efforts reaching over 1,160 referring providers. Y-HLC membership peaked at 8,300 members and nearly half of the membership population was driven by a medical referral. Trina managed over 20 programs that delivered evidence-based curriculum, self-management training, behavior modification, group and independent exercise related to disease or impairment, and ongoing support through health coaching.
Today, CHPcommunity helps build environments where clinic and community come together to fight chronic disease by executing community-based strategies that proactively link and support clinical services. CHPcommunity leads the design, development, and management of the Community HUB to support the expansion and sustainability of evidence-based chronic disease and health promotion programs in Iowa.
