@IHP_PTClinEd Being acutely aware of the limits of my knowledge while projecting complete self-confidence... Sound better? #PT676

[Ilya B @Physilya]

Lesson from CPI. Learning to hide my lack of knowledge and skill well + very supportive CI = Full Time I success. #PT676

[Ilya B @Physilya]

@Physilya Told a THR pt that they are on an upward trajectory now. Changed their attitude towards rehab. #PT676

[Ilya B @Physilya]

Knowledge from #PT676. Small bits of encouragement that seem trivial to you as a PT, make a world of difference to a pt's outlook.

[Ilya B @Physilya]

@benoits12 @EricaHunter2VT Agree, documenting your edu is the most important thing to do to cover your butt. #PT676

[Ilya B @Physilya]

@EricaHunter2VT The tough part is identifying pt's who need that extra bit of edu, and even then it's not a guarantee. #PT676

[Ilya B @Physilya]

@EricaHunter2VT hmm... I guess education on why they're getting a rep # is important. You'll hurt yourself! Threats DO work. #PT676

[Ilya B @Physilya]

@EricaHunter2VT Interesting... Is it form, or # of reps where he/she goes wrong? #PT676

[Ilya B @Physilya]

@bglangner Agree! There has to be a way to mentally reset after something didn't go well with a pt.

[Ilya B @Physilya]

@jlevine4 @JGillanSPT Ok, kickstarter... #PT676

[Ilya B @Physilya]

I often base my decision about what to do in a treatment session based on something the pt said, so they feel like it was their idea. #PT676

[Ilya B @Physilya]

May be obvious, but telling someone s/p total hip that they are on a new trajectory: improving, gets you better participation. #PT676

[Ilya B @Physilya]

The role of PT in d/c planning can be tough. It's very important to deliver a clear and consistent message and not mince words. #PT676

[Ilya B @Physilya]

@IHP_PTClinEd @lnburns1014 @jazstephens2017 Good spin! Saying you're making sure you explained it well. Testing yourself, not them. #PT676

[Ilya B @Physilya]

@KossakSasha Good to bring them back to the moment. If it's not the 1st tx, point out a gain they've made, even if it's tiny. #PT676

[Ilya B @Physilya]

@lnburns1014 @jazstephens2017 Yeah, I find sometimes you just have to straight up ask if they remember what you've taught them. #PT676

[Ilya B @Physilya]

@EKirk_PTs I should share this at my site. Would be helpful for those patients who try to figure out where they are every morning. #PT676

[Ilya B @Physilya]

@HowardYan_ "A week ago your pain was 6/10 and now it's a 4/10." Gives edu on their healing phase and tells them they're improving.#PT676

[Ilya B @Physilya]

@HowardYan_ I actually use KOR a lot! I had no idea I would be doing that. But I get very positive responses from pt's. #PT676

[Ilya B @Physilya]

@EKirk_PTs Agreed! Involving family is very big in my setting. We always try to get them to come in during a treatment. #PT676
