important is how does the individual feel about their skills as an OT. Do we
as practitioners feel that we are experts in our fields? Would we be able
professions expertise. It's very difficult to answer.

We are not gait training the client. we are not telling them the right way
they should walk. We reinforce what the PT does when it comes to walking the

Hello everyone. I have a question for all OTs involved in OTPP. I have been
trying to get referrals from MD's in my area, but i am having a difficult
