## Resource

Sacramento firefighters are set to revolutionize recovery by bringing in a doctor of physical therapy—turning rehab into a frontline tool. After a decade of $55 million in workers’ comp and 386,000 hours lost to injury, they’re betting this move will slash costs and get heroes back on duty faster. Even with a $66 million budget shortfall, the department says this $10 million investment this year will pay off. Inspired by Denver’s model, the proposal heads to city council Tuesday—because keeping firefighters ready isn’t just about gear, it’s about getting them back on their feet.
