Ron, Thanks for the response and for correcting my assumption. My apologies. My opinion still stands, however. That is the view from where I sit. OT's I have had contact with and PT's are not in conflict with each other, in this area. Nurses are the conflict/control originators. I'm in Texas in home care. Have been for 20 years. Although I've done some 'prn' work in most all major in pt. facilities in the Dallas area inthe last 10 years. The combined OT/PT board helps set the stage for cooperation. vickie *********��*********** Unsubscribe?
