OT Potential Podcast | Occupational Therapy CEUs OT vs. No Therapy— which is better?
Anytime we compare the outcomes of patients receiving OT vs. no therapy, we have a vested interest—we clearly want to see that the OT group has better outcomes.
But, the harsh reality is that this is not always the case.
When we run into examples where OT doesn't seem to be effective, we all need to all step into a growth mindset and confront this failure head-on.
There is a lot to learn from this article, which looks at OT vs no therapy for mild to moderate Parkinson's Disease, and I think it might be one of the most important articles for us to take in this year.
To discuss this article please join us at the OT Potential Club.
Also, as mentioned in the podcast, here is our blog post with the ongoing best price on MedBridge.
