Dr. Jeff Musgrave // #GeriOnICE // www.ptonice.com

In today's episode of the PT on ICE Daily Show, join Modern Management of the Older Adult lead faculty Jeff Musgrave discusses the significant role of hope in patient recovery. He emphasizes that while hope can be a powerful motivator for patients who may be uncertain about their healing journey, it must be accompanied by a concrete intervention plan to be effective. Without a structured approach to assessment and intervention, hope risks becoming an empty promise. The episode highlights the importance of combining hope with actionable strategies to enhance patient outcomes.
