Subject: [OTlist] The Saddest OT Statement I've Ever Heard
Today, I met a new PT assistant who was just starting with our
home
health company. He was just finishing with a patient as I was
starting
my evaluation. The PTA came from 20 years of geriatric rehab and
rehab
experiences.
About 1/2 through my eval he said to me, and I quote: "I'm not
use to
OT's working on functional things". He went on to say that at his
rehab
facility, the OT's mainly did UE exercises.
"Living life to the fullest". What a crock!
