bHalleujah--so many PT wannabees in the field. I have only worked in one LTC facility out of five that addressed Adls in an appropriate manner and by only one of the COTA not the other two. Where I am now the OT who does the majority of the evals and writes an obligatory ADL goal rarely addresses them herself. I do home health for a company owned by the LTC facility and work both in house and in HH. After I complained to the rehab director (a PTA of course) that by pts coming out of the facility couldn't do ADLS she told everyone they had to do one adl "run through" before DCing--what an attitude. If all we ever bill is 97110 why do they need us? They can just hire PTs. Sorry for the rant. Chris
