Can find the abbreviation ANL everywhere on Occupational Therapy sites and they go into great detail
Subject: Can find the abbreviation ANL everywhere on Occupational Therapy sites and they go into great detail about what it entails, but nothing states exactly what the abbreviation stands for... see below
from www.activehomerehab.com
Functional Retraining Programs: Based on functional problems identified in the in-home ANL assessment, the occupational therapist will teach the client and their caregivers, strategies to increase independence with functional tasks such as dressing, bathing and meal preparation. Homemaking retraining programs may also be warranted in which education and training are provided regarding pacing, work simplification, proper body mechanics and use of assistive devices (if necessary), to facilitate return to pre-accident homemaking activities

What is the basis for any jealousy here? That concept baffles me. You obviously spent a lot of time into the events of today and I would suggest an alternate outlet...like a l-i-f-e. I do not always come here to flame or denigrate others. That you consider me trouble is of no consequence to me. I have no concern for how my posts are perceived and when I post, I'm usually my ADD and dyslexic self with multiple lines of thinking bouncing around in my head at the same time. I do not self check my grammar or spelling. I'm happy with my QA score of greater than 99.5% monthly because when I work, I allow no distractions. Before I was out of high school, I had the skill set I needed that today's poster lacked and that you commented on as a general rule for all newbies.
If you do not understand my point, that is your failing, not mine. Others have repeated my point so I hope it is a bit more clear to you by now. I will not "leave this newbie" alone (not that I now have a vendetta against her/him now) but you hold no power over my actions, just as I have none over yours. I feel no threat from you, do not feel diminished by you and feel sorry that you are so worked up over today's events.
I had no one to ask questions of at all when I entered MT as I came in as the MT supervisor with years of experience in being a records auditor. When I went home and entered the acute care arena, I had more books than I could count, with my favorite being "A Syllabus for the Surgeon's Secretary" (first published in the 50s). I didn't make a lot of money my first year at home but every report was superior to those of the other MTs on the account. I feel today's newbie has no excuse for not being able to find many of the answers to many of the issues that were addressed today other than by posting entire reports for strangers who may only think they are qualified to answer. Asking for QA help on entire reports is a crap shoot. On a forum where no one knows who anyone really is in real life, you can easily get crappy help anot not know the difference. Your mileage may vary.
I hope you find some peace and a healthy outlet for your frustrations.

She is describing some symptoms possibly consistent with ADHD. We discussed the differential diagnosis and possibly overlap of S/L: subsymptoms between anxiety and ADHD and possibly that these were comorbid disorders.

how the client prefers. If you are being marked down for not putting them, then I would go ahead and add them if you cannot get an instructor to let you know one way or the other. Sometimes the docs do dictate vital signs separate from the PE, and unless you have been told to move them under the PE heading, then I would leave them as dictated.
