This course brought to light an issue many patients may face when returning home following a stay in a SNF or hospital that most therapy companies don't think about addressing. Coming from Louisiana there are many instances where this education and implementing it into treatment could help our patients.

This course will help me not only to help my SNF clients as they prepare for discharge, but also my home health clients. Some of the situations covered in this course- I either had not thought of, or just assumed would be covered by a caregiver or someone else. Very smart ideas covered like having a go bag, a plan, and a backup person, as well as a first aid kit. Thank you so much, you have helped so many people by creating this course!

I love hearing from Amber Ward since I've met her in person several times, hear a few of her lectures, and own the book she co-authored with my teacher. She is so full of amazing knowledge of the OT field. I like how this lecture has lot of questioning; not just to ourselves as OT practitioners but also questions to ask our clients. I truly enjoyed this topic and all the suggestions on how we can help our clients be prepared in emergency situations. I feel like this topic is relatable to us all.

I never really considered emergency preparedness further than exiting the house in the event of fire, identifying safety hazards, etc. The travel preparedness and emergency "go-bag" are incredible suggestions and will be something I absolutely incorporate into future sessions with clients. Especially those who have significant new deficits such as post-amputation or expressive aphasia.
