It is really nice to see an editor take the time to respond, and more so-
you to have noticed and felt the "power of one" to write and ake a sall, yet
important correction that will surely leave a large impression.
nice work

Subject: [OTlist] An Ounce of Prevention
Date: Mon, 11 Jun 2007 16:00:46 -0400
Hello All:
The most recent edition of "Rehab Management" has an article by Ann
Carlson titled: "An Ounce of Prevention". Generally, it's about PT's
providing more than just physical intervention for older adults. I was a
little put off at the exclusivity of the article, especially given that
the magazine is touted as interdisciplinary.
Even though I thought it was a waste of time, I drafted a quick e-mail
to the editor as follows:

> Given that Rehab Management is an interdisciplinary magazine, I am very

> "An Ounce of Prevention".

> Clearly, the need to provide "physical and emotional support to sustain
> functional independence in older adults" is applicable to all rehab
> disciplines, not just PT's.

Well, much to my surprise, I received the following response:
> Duly noted. I am sorry for the oversight, and will be more diligent
> in emphasizing the full-spectrum viewpoint accepting articles.
> Thanks for your input.

> ~~The Interdisciplinary Journal of Rehabilitation*
So, you just never know when your voice will be heard!
