*addressing functional goals my patient would like to work towards while participating in PT*
Patient: “I would like get back to wearing heels”
Girl you JUST HAD A KNEE ARTHROSCOPY
Today I had a 86yo patient fill out an outcome measure looking like she was declining. Questioned she revealed she lied so I wouldn’t discharge her. She said she didn’t want to stop hanging out lol after saying she would continue to benefit from PT she asked to fill out again ha
I remembered today that
1. In 2nd grade I read and presented about how badass and moving Susan B. Anthony was AND
2. In 4th dressed and spoke about how Amelia Earhart broke through barriers during our wax museum
Let’s keep that drive moving forward not just us but them as well.
My favorite thing about being an actual adult with a job and not a student is being able to finish a book in a respectable amount of time and then being able to start a new one right away.
