October & November 2005

November 28, 2005
    PT Call, Monday, Nov. 28 at 12:00 noon ET (11 CT, 10 MT, 9 PT).
   Meeting Action Items:
Take the next ten days to pilot test the form during patient treatment sessions and report back to the group on the next PT subgroup call, Wednesday, Dec. 7 at 12 noon ET.
Today's call participants requested to see an earlier version of the form (Version 11) that contains distinct activity and intervention columns so that the format of the two can be trialed. PLEASE NOTE that the content of Version 11 is different from Version 15. The purpose of Version 11 is to trial the concept of separating activities and interventions - which is more intuitive to practicing therapists?
