Ron, Why not include the "ortho-based" goals and function-based goals? Using the sample goals you included and just combining them, some examples/suggestions might be:
Patient will self-report pain as 3 out of 10 in order to safely and independently perform LE dressing; Patient's will increase active elbow extension to -20 degrees in order to safely and independently perform LE dressing; Patient will increase active elbow extension to -20 degrees in order to safely and independently ambulate to the bathroom using the least restrictive mobility aid; etc. Bill Maloney, OTR -- Options? www.otnow.com/mailman/options/otlist_otnow.com Archive? www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]
