This is very helpful make more videos regarding OT

[@DoctorOT]

Feedback well received. More OT videos coming soon.

This was very very good I would only add some theraputty to the bag, and a fall assessment/ checklist. Was surprised that you had no Self care tools especially reachers. Perhaps you do in your car?

[@DoctorOT]

Yes, exactly, I have a demo hip kit in the car at all times (reacher, long handled shoe horn, sock aid, dressing stick, long handled sponge). It just doesn’t fit in my therapy bag.

I wonder, pulse oximeter and, temporal scanning thermometer and one else are required? Or we have to have in COVID-19?

[@DoctorOT]

Hi Ebrar! Thanks for subscribing to my channel. I look forward to creating more content soon. Best of luck in your OT career!

[@DoctorOT]

Pulse oximeters and thermometers are necessary for home health care setting as most insurance companies want to see vital assessments- even more so now than ever before due to COVID-19.
