Every time I sit down to write my Thought of The Day, I often wonder what you think when you read my comments. I know what I don’t want. I certainly don’t want to offend anyone. I would love for you all to feel like you could contribute to the Thought of The Day section on Sallycares.com. I am amazed by some of the thoughts and tips that patients and caregivers come up with to handle things that they have had to overcome.

Even though I have been an Occupational Therapist for 36 years, I still learn something new every day. I have learned so much by working with patients in their homes. The challenge of home health is that you have to modify what you want to do every time you are in a different home environment. Have I tried some things that didn’t work? Sure. Have I learned from each effort? Absolutely.
