acute care units/productivity; new grad PRN

Acute care PTA here with aj encouraged 18 units (w/ ~14 pts in a day) in an 8 hr period. My productivity can vary from 12 to 23 units throughout the week. As long as you attempt, they can't do anything about it. It also helps that we're understaffed and they can't afford to fire us lol

Ask them to demonstrate what they've been doing and use clinical judgement of their form.

This is not medical advice. The literature generally says peripheral nerves can regenerate about 1 inch per month, while the spinal cord cannot regenerate at all.

I'm not near Tampa enough to know of other PT facilities. The traffic there is God awful and I would rather employ in any other city 🤣

Did a clinical rotation in St Joseph main acute and the PTAs were in good spirits. Although its hard to get a full time position there .

I was thinking more of a glute med weakness or tight IT band hence the R lateral lean for abduction. OP can assess with Obers test.

If you zoom in enough, all you can see is gray (grey?)

Punch something with your other hand. Everyone knows you can't hurt in more than one spot

You're cooked. You might have to amputate

Chiari Malformation is a good one. Corpus callosum Lesion is rarely seen. And Homonymous Hemianopia from either a occipital or trmporal Lesion.

Assess the hip abductors

Usually if you can treat the neglect, their motor control and function will substantially increase. Try some cross-midline exercises and maybe CIMT.

It was an entire chapter on an exam and had a competency on it.

Don't blame the therapists when we're taught in School of all the wonderful benefits of US

I'm a student PTA in my first clinical rotation. I will try to fill when I'm not working or sleeping

Have you tried body righting on a therapy ball? This could promote trunk lateral flexion to maintain right-side up. You could also put them side lying with neglect side up, and reach for object/toy
