Wow, shocking... I think it is very detrimental to the well being of patients to allow non-OT/SLP/PTs to provide therapy services "per incident"; even under the supervision of a physician. I am shocked that it is even being considered. Therapists are specialists and have very specific skills to facilitate their patients. To send a patient to a non-therapist is not in the best interest of the patient. I hope everyone on this list-serve goes on AOTA and sends an email to their states reps. Thanks for bringing this issue up; if I had not read it here, I would never have known about it.
