You know there are things missing that will make their lives easier at home but the time it takes to figure out those solutions is more than you have. If that’s you then you need this series.

This series provided a wealth of information on making homes more accessible without excessive costs. The discussion on fall monitoring systems and medication management was particularly valuable. Every therapist working in home health should watch this!

This series was incredibly informative! It provided practical solutions for home modifications, adaptive equipment, and community resources. The strategies for low-cost modifications and technology-based adaptations were especially useful. I now feel more confident in helping my patients achieve greater independence at home.

It was perfect. Dawn was engaging. She gave relevant information and examples. I would have liked a few more examples of therapy materials and ideas that might be used.

Dawn

The presenter was engaging and informative. Could always use more Q&A. I had fun and am glad I did it

Deborah

Excellent, engaging, knowledgeable speaker, clear, etc. Maybe spending less time on the checklists to prepare and more. I would have liked to see examples of therapy (videos), more time on actual therapy and therapy ideas, small group breakout session so that we could discuss our experiences and help each other out, networking with other teletherapists. Liked the platform used, very clear presentation, excellent, thank you

I really appreciate the work that was put into this program to better prepare us when providing services during virtual sessions.

Dawn was very encouraging and promoted out of the box thinking. Too much time dedicated to virtual set-up vs. therapy with telepractice.

Loved the cultural humility aspect and the checklist resources. I wish we would have seen a specific example of a session played. More examples of activities in sessions with parent vs one on one with a child. It was good overall. The presenter was very knowledgable with tons of experience.

Addressed diversity and meeting families where they are but not enough concrete examples
