Episode 37: When PT Is Not The Answer
from The Conscious Clinician Podcast Hosted by Monika Stefanowicz
We have spent 36 episodes exploring how to work with someone, build better rapport, collaborate, move past our own and the patient's roadblocks to improving our quality of care and work. We realized that we haven't talked about when PT is not the answer and how we know we need to end care. In this episode, we explore the reasons why you may choose to recommend discharge, including what we say and examples of how we handle these conversations. We can practice within our ethics AND support the patient to get the care that’s best for them. Highlights from our conversation in Episode 37 (0:34) Introduction (1:24) Ruling out medical red flags (2:39) Psychological considerations (7:52) Meaningful participation: cancellations, availability (15:51) Mismatched PT treatment approach vs patient expectations (21:56) Lack of progress (33:30) Unacceptable patient behaviors Thank you for listening to The Conscious Clinician.
