I don't think it does. I posted these questions not because of PT~vs~OT, but because of occupation. OT's Framework says that OT is about occupation and I find that so many OT's are either unwilling or unable to train patients in mobility related daily living occupations. It's like we can stand at the table, but we can't teach the patient how to get to the table. Or, we can teach patients how to transfer from the w/c to the toilet, but we can't teach them how to ambulate across the bathroom. It's a confusing subject for me.
