I have just been hired to develop OT at a small hospital in Indiana, and I am very excited about the possibilities. After all of the negatives we have been discussing about the profession, I have been received with much enthusiasm and anticipation. I will be working in inpatient, outpatient-general and hands and home health, birth to older adults.I have ordered the promotional materials through AOTA, and plan to visit area physicians and schools. I would appreciate advice on how build OT presence as distinct from from and cooperating with physical therapy(PT), which has been the prime therapy at this hospital for some time. The PT director is very supportive of OT and has been working to get the hospital to bring in an OT, but some of the other PT. staff seem afraid to give up patients that I think OT could work with better. At least more occupationally.I am also looking for evaluations that I can adapt for Inpatient, outpatient-general and hands, home health and pre-driving. I can develop theses evals , but would rather spend my time on treatment and promotion. I will of course give credit for the originator.I really want to do this right, and can use all of the help I can get from more experienced OTs.Thanking you in advance in peace, Pat
