Ron, I find myself in a very similar situation currently with a gentleman who

Hi Sue, that is the way my agency does it as well, and I was told that the
reason PT needed to go back out at least once was to avoid looking like we were
using the PT order just to open OT.

By the way, I'm not in this setting anymore, but find the discussion

Hi Becky, the one thing I always remind students of when it comes to fieldwork
is that one can learn just as much about how NOT to practice OT as how to do
it well. Even the tough/bad placements teach us something. -Terrianne

My other curiosity is why, if people are having such

more OT once discharged?

Hi Ron, I find myself having to damage control several times a week in my home
care practice. Many of my clients had OT in a SNF before returning home, and
when I get there they many tell me right off the bat they they do not want OT.
When I ask them why, they proceed with stories similar to
'numbers based'. It seems that there must be some way of
quantifying progress.
Thanks,
Ron

Hello all,
In light of the discussions re: UE/LE, exercise, acute care, etc., I'd like to
share with you something I wrote
Jimmie, you make some very good points about the use of exercise in the bigger
picture of OT practice. If only most OT's actually practiced as you described,
there would be no problem. Unfortunately, in my experience--I currently work in
home care and SNF's trans care-rote exercise is the rule

years ago) that we are not doing oursleves any favors by trying so hard to

My 2 cents:
The problem is that there are many OT's who ONLY focus on 'occupation as end'
and justify all their non-occupation internventions ('means'') because they
will enable occuaption. The problem is , in reality, that is usually the goal
of other disciplines too (ie, PT)...it is our
