"I wanted to see the evidence - is there a clinical benefit of groups? And there is! It can be motivating to work with and see other people doing the same activity."
- Kevin Brogley at #OTsnf

[AOTA Regulatory @AOTAregulatory]

The role of OTAs in SNFs is not changing under PDPM. We continue to need to be able to collaborate. Both OT and OTA should be intricately familiar with the evaluation and plan of care. Read it and be sure to document occupation-based care. Melissa Tilton, Closing panel #otsnf

[AOTA Events @AOTAEvents]

How do you help families see the value of 24-hour care? "Our goal is to help your loved one be safe and to thrive. Here's how she's not thriving here, we think she can be better if she had more support." Kim Warchol #OTsnf
