I am 100% confident that AOTA already promotes OT as more than "arm pumpers" (great saying by the way). My concern is that AOTA is dormant on ensuring that OT's are actually DOING more than arm pumping.
It's all great that AOTA promulgates wonderful documents like the Framework, but why are they not investigating, publicizing and trying to change the fact that the vast majority of phys-dys OT's ARE arm pumpers?
