After being in the midst of covid in the acute hospital setting, it was wonderful to see the case studies and know that I wasn't alone. I liked the suggestions given for OTs. Sometimes I felt helpless and I now see some different options. I thank you from my heart....with tears of appreciation in my eyes.

I loved the personal touches she put in her presentation. My mom is currently in a snf plus in and out of hospitals while there. She contracted COVID 19 and began to hallucinate and have a significant decline in her mental abilities. The OT there said that COVID can have this effect on the elderly. Prior to COVID my mom was mentally sharp and we have seen her go immediately downhill mentally since the infection. So while the presenter mentioned cognitive changes due to TV coverage of the pandemic and the social isolation, I believe there is also a physical component that affects cognition due to the virus itself. I would have like that addressed in this course. All in all, a very nice course and it reaffirms my belief that social emotional issues and not just physical needs should be addressed by staff at snf.

It had more to do with the fact that I am seeing this toward the end of the pandemic; had I seen it closer to when it was recorded, I'm sure I would have been able to learn more from it. As it was, I had already learned many of those same lessons from my own experience with COVID.

The presenter had a very clear understanding of the topic and was able to articulate her experiences and convey accurate data from the pandemic at the time of the presentation. So much of what she presented aligned with my experience working with patients in a skilled nursing facility during the pandemic and validated some of the feelings I have had about addressing mental health with this population during the COVID-19 pandemic.

I am also an OT in a SNF and we had a COVID outbreak and can relate to all of the situations you described, lack of PPE, staffing shortages, 10 pt deaths due to COVID and filling in as a CNA after my OT shift due to severe nursing storage- most of nursing staff caught COVID due to lack their lack of following proper precautions and Rehab stepped up to help.
