The Impact of Functional Tasks on Independence

so many great ideas

i love the "real world" approach having ot %26 st involved in drug %26 alcohol rehab programs would be an excellent way for those pts to learn\/relearn all the "real life" skills that they stopped learning\/doing at whatever age they became so involved w\/drugs (especially) %26 alcohol %26 became non-functional in "real life" activities. this would be a way for centers to be able to justify to insurance companies why someone needs to stay longer %26 the insurance company should continue to pay for it. most drug addicts never learned how to do a resume, apply for a job, the skills needed to keep a job, how to open a bank acct, how to budget, how to pay their bills on time, etc, etc, etc. they need all these skills to be able to function in the "real world" %26, without them, they will probably go back to using drugs\/alcohol because that's all they know %26 it's too scary\/unknown how to do the "normal" stuff.

it would have been helpful if she pulled up a few of the tests\/questionnaires she mentioned and discussed them with more detail. she did mention reimbursement a lot!

good information that can be applied to clinical practice

great practical application

this instructor seems passionate about the topic and presented the information in a very organized way.

great course. very educational that i can apply to my job as a cota that works in acute hospital setting.

the use of examples of how to make tasks functional like with dual tasks or adding more cognitive skills

a lot to think about

liked the pace of the instruction
