Overall the course was good and informative however the constant referring to her discipline as "we PT's" or "our physical therapy" wasnt good as I am not a PT. If you are providing the course to all disciplines then the teaching style should reflect that. Every time I heard "we physical therapist" made me cringe. Just goes to show the thinking of most PTs in the field and being far superior to other disciplines. Most of us went to the same schools and had the same classes provided.

connection of functional outcomes to apathy and depression in stroke
by
Member
on
October 24, 2022
Overall, this course gave me a better understanding with the difference between depression and apathy when it comes to post stroke. I feel strokes are very common and most likely its rare to see "two strokes alike." With that being said, many people might react differently after a stroke emotionally, mentally and physically. Being able to see the signs and come up with a protocol to help make it more client centered etc.

While I thought the first hour of the course content was good, I thought it was more appropriate for PTs than OTs because of our extensive training in psychosocial, emotional, and spiritual dimensions of health. I felt the second hour did not add to my understanding at all, and reviewing the exact answers to the post-test before taking our post-test was counterintuitive and a waste of time. If we're not supposed to give our patients the answers, why did you give the audience all the answers?
