I would like the MD to have stated something like what YOU said. In other
words, that OT was using basketball to improve the patient's ability to take
care of themselves. Instead, the MD said:
"The OT used this task for counting, visual perceptual training and
attention."
Personally, I don't see counting, visual perception or attention to be very
specific to OT. And that's my concern.
I so wish, OT would be known as the profession that teaches people to take
care of themselves, be productive and have fun. Unfortunately, it seems just
about impossible for this to happen.
