Hummm...I'll put a bet on the LE/UE thing. Annoying! Ron Carson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: You guys know that I like sharing my experiences about being an OT. Well, here's another one.
I've been working with a patient for 6 weeks because of LE lymphedema. Her husband has been in/out of the hospital for various problems. After his most recent hospitalization, it looks like the husband is going to in-patient rehab. My patient and her family what me to see the husband at home as soon as he's discharged. In preparing for the husband to be transferred to rehab, the family met with the rehab director. They told the director that they wanted me to see the patient at home as soon as he was discharged. As usual, the director balked because I am an OT and two because I don't offer PT. Apparently in the conversation between the director and the family, the topic of PT and OT came up. The director explained to the family the differences between OT and PT. I was going to tell everyone what was said, but maybe it's more fun to hear people guesses.
