Another MVL: how different each setting of PT really is! SO much felxability to work with different pt's within this field :) #clined #ihppt

[Erin Katzmark @ekatzmark]

Experience has boosted my confidence! MVL: thinking creatively to modify tx according to pt's response & value team effort! #clined #ihppt

PTproblemsolving101:If a pt cant out of bed w/out help, try the other side.The simplest adjustments can make a pt independent #clined #ihppt

@fernandesd492 Same. I requested it to build pt's confidence w/ PROM. Pt EXTREEMLY anxious/muscle gaurding w/ a lot of pain w AROM #clined

[Erin Katzmark @ekatzmark]

I advocated for a CPM order from an MD who doesn't like CPMs. Turns out he thought PT's would only use the PROM for tx vs other ex's #clined

[Erin Katzmark @ekatzmark]

@CaitlinFitzPT @SCrose @JoeParkerMGHIHP @balban_pt I have had a pt ask "Do I HAVE to?" I say No! They are in control of their tx #clined

[Erin Katzmark @ekatzmark]

@CaitlinFitzPT @stephanieDPTS white boards in ea pt's room! let's pt's and team know their team members, tx time, goals for the day #clined

[Erin Katzmark @ekatzmark]

I mentioned this last tweetchat, but I'm subacute rehab, PT's can't ace wrap, US, e-stim (any modality really) without an MD order #clined

[Erin Katzmark @ekatzmark]

@kelljmont I talked to another knee pt about whether anyone had told her before surgery about the pain/rehab "nope!" i'm amazed! #clined

[Erin Katzmark @ekatzmark]

Scrubbed in on a TKA w/ a surgeon who "doesn't believe in rehab" I asked the pt beforehand if anyone talked to her about rehab "no" #clined

Pt having a hard time swallowing? Observed Barium Swallow test with Speech therapist: fluoroscopy of throat to dx - very cool #clined #ihppt

[Erin Katzmark @ekatzmark]

Subacute: importance of the WHOLE team working together. If the pt isn't washed/dressed/medicated my tx is a lot harder/impossible #clined
