  • Recommend appropriate therapeutic activities and exercises tailored to the patient’s abilities and progress.

  • Work with patients on ADLs such as dressing, bathing, cooking, and using adaptive equipment for mobility.
  • Teach patients new ways to complete tasks and daily activities, including recommendations for ergonomic practices and assistive devices.
  • Patient Education and Support :

  • Educate patients and their families about the rehabilitation process, techniques, and strategies for enhancing functional independence.
  • Provide guidance on using adaptive equipment and tools (e.g., splints, mobility aids, etc.).
  • Offer emotional support and encouragement throughout the recovery process.
  • Collaboration and Communication :

  • Work closely with other healthcare professionals, including doctors, physical therapists, speech therapists, and nursing staff, to provide comprehensive care.

  • Rehabilitation and Recovery :

  • Monitor and reassess patient progress regularly to ensure therapy goals are being met.
  • Adjust treatment plans as necessary based on the patient's feedback and progress.
  • Help patients transition from therapy to independent living, ensuring they are prepared to manage daily tasks outside of a clinical environment.
  • Advocacy and Community Resources :

  • Advocate for patients to ensure access to necessary resources and support services.
  • Provide patients and families with information about community programs, support groups, and other resources that may assist in their rehabilitation.
  • Maintaining Continuing Education :
