I would argue that PT touches lives in the same way :) ......................................... This was a touching example of persistence on the part of the patient, the support of his friends and family, the flexibility of the hospital to allow the OT to be so creative and goal-centered, the medical insurance support and the will to succeed on the part of the patient. I think you need all of those component to have this type of result. Congratulations to everyone involved with this.
I feel that OT does its wonder not only by connecting the client and the therapist but also encouraging curiosity as well as giving meaning and purpose through the actual activities - which for many can be the route back to their identity and healthy self-worth. Therefore seem to be doing more than nursing does and I am saying this as a proud nurse with a little bit of envy. 😁🌈
Hi. I am Dr Sushant Sarang, an Associate Professor in Occupational Therapy at the prestigious Seth GSMC & KEMH, Mumbai, India. Thank you for such a lovely presentation. The short talk appeared simple but had occupational therapy essence in every word. We, as occupational therapists truly can bring about a change in people's lives. It took me years to understand the essence of OT and now that I have finally realized it, everyday I am discovering newer ways to implement it - neuroplasticity working to its best. Thank you once again.
I’m currently a high school senior looking into occupational therapy. It’s moments like these and the idea of helping people on so many levels that drew me toward being an OT.

Hi, I am really glad and at the same time feeling hopeful reading this story. My sister suffered hypoxic brain injury 3 months ago. She is still in hospital receiving occupational therapy and physio therapy. I don't remember how long she was devoid of oxygen. Now she is in her recovery journey. I want to know more about your recovery journey. Is there any way to contact. Thank you
OT's are vital for recovery after a stroke, after a TBI, MVA or any neurological trauma or condition. I am glad this video is out there for those who are not familiar with Occupational Therapy. OT's are educators, challengers, creators, enablers (in a good way), cheerleaders, teachers and advocates for their patients. A good OT should have compassion, patience, ability to challenge without overwhelming, involving family/significant others in the recovery process, and working on what the patient's goals are. The number one thing over the years I had to learn was to LISTEN to the patients (and observe), what they tell you (or sometimes not tell you); because that's the answer - the patient is telling you and you have to figure out how to help them fix it. As the years went by I had wanderlust and thought maybe I'd want to be a nurse, but I always come back to OT and I love the profession and all the amazing OT's out there making a difference in people's lives on a very tangible, practical and goal-driven way. Think of OT as Life Coaches who give you the tools for success...that's what we do! 😊
I would love to see how impaired he was in the first 4 months, to be able to have a better grasp of the progress he made................Great presentation Dr. Phipps. It's inspiring to see how clinical you continue to be.
This presentation touched me especially because of my serious brain injury 42 years ago. I wrote about it in college for an English assignment if you want to read my inspiring story just go to my name /wakeup. Yes, I earned a degree in Information Technology, and yes I added a few big words to my vocabulary - like neuroplasticity. It’s a good read and I got an A on the paper, but my purpose is not to brag, but like Armando I want you to know “anything” is possible!
Wow this is a great story. I am glad he got his life back. I have been struggling with my brain injury for 18 years. Makes me happy that he got his life back. For some mine has not
Excellent! Thank you for doing such a good job of providing the combination of hope and practical guidance that we all need, to continue to develop or abilities to fully participate as we address illness and injury. Great job! Please thank Armando for his willingness to have his story told.
Fantastic presentation Dr Phipps, we do home health care in Metro Detroit and the suburbs, and 20% of our caseloads are TBI, these patients can't go to the outpatient clinics.
From October I'm starting university for OT and seeing this video made me want to start the lessons even now. I believe it a proffesion very difficult but beautiful to see the results of your work or better help you gave to someone 😀
Very encouraging and inspiring! Where was he on the Glasgow Coma Scale @ the time of the accident? My daughter, Victoria Faith was a pedistriain hit by a vehicle traveling 45+ mph. She has . severe (Catastrophic )TBI. We need so much help!
I think the benefits of OT is underutilizes with people struggling in Schizophrenia. I’ve largely healed of schizophrenia n I’ve been saying since I’ve needed to re-learn everything from the perspective of a 2 year old, soon I am expecting to I finally get help from an occupational therapist.
on 3 june 2023 my brother went unconscious His eyes rolled back ...and doctors told us that he has a heart attack and as a result have hypoxic brain injuury... uptill now there is no complete treatment for this thing.. Its been a month now initially he can only open his eyes with limited look around movement.. now He can move his lips and tongue a little.. And he also started to yawn.. and few times ..very few times..move his elbow,feet finger and head a little. When something is put in his mouth he try to chew it Its been almost three weeks he is breathing on his own initially was put on a ventilator doctors says from now it all depends on patient's will power to secure complete recovery.. He is having food through NG tube He also have tracheostomy tube in the neck Also mri scans have shown global or severe hypoxic brain injuury He is only 33 He was a healthy person before. It seems like he can listen when we ask him to blink his eyes he blink his eyes
Idk why but this feels fake to me. After tbi you dont come back to your old self. And there is no way he is functioning better than before his accident. He didnt speak at all about his struggles he just said it works. Idk why tho

I hope.. that my husband can have a recovery like that.. really really hope..
This video the best definition of this beautiful and so necessary career. Thanks to the OT and Armando for telling the world about this

Hi I am 1st year OT student... though it's a very noble profession...I don't see my stable future...and daily suffers with overthinking

Awwwww! Amazing. Thank you both. This is exactly what I needed to see after my (comparatively minor) mTBI/concussion.
I'm a third year OT student and I hope to be as competent as this man at his work some day.
Me too 😊 hi

Awesome! Thank you for sharing an amazing story.
I don’t use the word “hard”, I use the word challenge instead when I talk about my TBI recovery.
Actually as an OT I’m so grateful for the neuroplasticity , that’s why I always wear a ( nerve cell) brooch on my scrub 😁😂
Phenomenal job!
Awesome!!!
Got inspired from this
Motivational talk
Leaves me wanting more to bad my mom interferes an disagrees j.c.i
I just wanna ask a question. My baby is 20 months old and he suffered from post encephalitis. How fast does OT works for post encephalitis babies.?
Instant results I'm living proof!j.c.i
