Day in the Life of a Doctor: Shadowing an Occupational and Physical Therapist (Ft. Stroke Rehab)

[@markoembarko9045]

My mom had a Hemorrhagic Stroke on June 30th. Miraculously she pulled through, but we've got a long road ahead. I'm her full time Caregiver now. ❤️

[@MCscarfacematt]

as an MCA Hemorrhagic Stroke survivor myself, the thing they tell stroke survivors is it takes time but what they dont tell them is you may see a bit of progress for the first few years then none for a few then start seeing progress again i saw a bunch for the first 4 years then it kind of leveled out for a few then picked right back up. once i got walking i kept getting told walking is my best physical therapy so i stopped going to physical therapy and started walking around the mall after being told id be wheelchair bound for life i now can walk unassisted but tend to rely only on an ankle foot orthotic or AFO when im tired or in a rush ill use a cane if im going to the mail box and know i have a packag ill sit in the wheelchair to get there put the package on the seat and use the chair as a walker to push it back with the package the things ive picked up doing things with one hand makes life easier for others whom are abled bodied like working on a car with my step dad hes picked up things and still does stuff that way himself i wish your mom a speedy and happy recovery

[@T_P_W_ThachoZenjuan]

May the force be with you and your mum. 💖

I would recommend working as hard with her as she tolerates, because as she said in the video, the first three months are critical! But that doesn't mean you can't improve after that! Wish you both the best of luck!

My dad had bilateral brain hemorrhaging at 85 after a fall that he initially didn't seek treatment for. 3 months later he had 2 surgeries to drain the bleeds that had compressed his brain by more than half! He had a significant recovery, but did have residual deficits. He lived 3 more years.

OT of 23 years here! Thanks for highlighting OT- we are so often just lumped under “physical therapy” and no one really knows what we do. This video portrays a high level patient in a super nice facility w tons of equipment /resources to work with. This gentleman has done a LOT of rehab to get to this point (and his motivation is amazing)! I work in a skilled nursing setting which is quite different, but I love geriatrics. OTs are vital in sooo many settings! Hope you will highlight a speech-language pathologist as well-another overlooked but crucial part of a rehab team!

Well done Kosh, you're crushing it! I have cerebral palsy because I was born prematurely (for the uninitiated it's very similar to hemorrhagic stroke- but from infancy). Seeing a doctor with a public platform acknowledge the psychological strength and determination it takes to build these brain pathways, just to be able to do things other people take for granted means, a lot to me...too often I have felt reduced to a list of deficits, and not valued or respected by medical professionals. Of course it's really not surprising coming from you Siobhan.Your empathy is always very obvious. I just wanted to say that this video gives me hope for a very different reason. Hope that the medical community can grow to respect the disability community more, and be better allies.

My mom had a traumatic brain bleed in January 2021. It was the most horrific day of our lives. She had to be airlifted to the hospital, and they told us to prepare for the worst. It was unlikely she'd even survive the trip there, let alone the surgical procedures. 22 months later, she's almost fully recovered and nearly back to living her pre-stroke life. Such a relief. Modern medicine, combined with the human spirit, can do miraculous things.

[@ajplays7241]

My great aunt had an Hemorragic stroke and sadly at the time of her stroke there wasn’t as much study in it as there is now she passed 2002 but the doctors sadly thought they successfully killed the clot and released the clot and it burst in her brain and that was that

[@zanleuxs]

Why did no one help Kosh eat when he couldn't do it, himself? Even in these lighthearted vlogs, I see hints of the dark and sinister side of Canadian healthcare that everyone likes to pretend doesn't exist. I bet in that same hospital where he is getting rehab, there are patients lying in their own urine for days, like I was after a major surgery. Canadian healthcare is sickening, and made even worse with the way they pretend it's all nice and happy and patient focused.

I was in an accident 2 months ago which caused multiple injuries including fractures in my spine. I really have no idea where I'd be without my PT and OT that I had while I was at an inpatient facility. I still have a long road to go but they gave me the right tools and were there when I needed them the most.

This video is awesome! I work in the OR as a surg tech in neuro. I only know about these brain surgeries but I never know how patients do to help their recovery. Love this kind of video. Thank you so much.

[@Restlessmedic]

PT/OT rocks! Healthcare really is a team effort, and we all have our places and roles. Some people may think, "oh it's just therapy; it's not that big of a deal." These people could not be more wrong, If PT/OT was not there, the quality of life change, and the effects of a stroke could be permanent! PT/OT ROCKS!!!!! I agree with you too, too often as healthcare providers, we don't get to see what happens when our care is concluded. Following a patient's journey from the onset to the conclusion shows how monumental this field is, especially for patients!

[@genmcclain]

My little brother suffered two strokes on June 26, 2021, one week before his 21st birthday. This video is fascinating, it’s so amazing to see what can happen when you put your mind to it!

I was in the regular hospital almost 3 weeks. I was so weak I couldn’t turn over. I was in rehab for about 2 1/2 months. When I left there I was able to walk with a walker. Those pt and ot folks were amazing and awesome cheerleaders! I can now get around with just a cane.

[@hannahsmiraculoustextingstorys]

My dad is currently in the hospital with a brain bleed (please send prayers) and how they found out he had it was because he was being acting very delirious and was saying a bunch of stuff that did not make sense, however that also happens to be one of the symptoms for low blood sugar (he’s a type one diabetic) and so his roommate fed him and gave him insulin and got his blood sugar up and he was still very confused so they took him to the ER and did a CT scan on his head and they found the brain bleed. They soon did an MRI to find out why this happened and they didn’t find anything wrong so they think it was caused by high blood pressure.

Siobhan, I have loved following your journey, and throughly enjoy watching you highlight all the different aspects of healthcare! I work as a Medical Laboratory Scientist in Hematology, and was hoping that you might do a shadowing video in the Clinical Pathology Laboratory. We don't get direct patient care much, but we have such an important role in deciding patient care. The clinical pathology lab is huge, with many different departments (blood bank, phlebotomy, micro, chemistry, hematology), so it could be multiple parts. It would be wonderful if you could come see what we do, as most doctors and nurses don't know this career exists.

Had a brain bleed and two TIA's back in 2013. The result was constant seizures, lack of feeling in my hands, a lack of control (poor gait) of my legs, loss of my driving licence and a future of several medications. In 2017 I had multiple violent seizures to the extent that I was discovered unconscious, barely breathing and an extremely low heart rate. After being transported to hospital, the seizures increased to the point that I was intubated, placed in an induced coma and airlifted to the Calgary trauma centre. I was "out" for several days before coming around. I was unaware any of this happened until the doctor told me. I was in the hospital for a month. Long story short, I now have very limited hand control, can barely feed myself (simple sandwiches only and no possibility of eating in public and trying to even have a glass of water requires two hands and a sip cup, even using the computer mouse requires two hands to operate), virtually no feeling or control of my legs (appears like I'm extremely drunk) and have to consciously instruct my legs in order to walk in a straight leg motion, with canes), have no balance while standing which leads to constant sideways falls, inability to pick up small items and no ability too print, write or even sign my name. Even this took 20 minutes to type. I lost a lot of brain cells over this, all because of the initial brain bleed. Life consists, now, of very little enjoyment. Even my wife left because she couldn't handle the situation. Sucks but it's still better than the alternative.

In 2012 I sustained a traumatic brain injury (TBI) as the result of an assault. I went to an allied therapy unit four days a week for three years and worked with an amazing, integrated team that looked so similar to this one. I had been knocked back to the second grade reading level (I was 20 y/o) and could not walk in a straight line or perform simple math equations in addition to many other deficits. On the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) I scored an 11/15. After all my hard work I made a huge recovery that allowed me to go back to graduate school. I am now a student at Harvard University studying Creative Writing and Literature and have given a TEDx talk about my injury. Recovery is possible with incredible teams like this. As patients, we are so grateful to these medical professionals. Shoutout to Martha Morehouse Rehab for changing my life.
