Occupational Therapy (OT) Assessment & Mental State Evaluation
Judy Foran underwent an Occupational Therapy (OT) assessment to evaluate her personal care needs and recovery progress. The OT noted Judy's inability to complete tasks due to pain, limited range of motion, and non-weight bearing status of her right arm. Consequently, the OT recommended 3 hours of personal care assistance per day, 7 days a week until her follow-up appointment with the surgeon. On the same day, Judy's mental state was also evaluated, revealing feelings of sadness, pessimism, loss of pleasure, self-criticalness, suicidal thoughts, and anxiety. She was also reported to experience physical symptoms such as numbness, tingling, feeling hot, wobbliness in legs, inability to relax, and excessive sweating.
The OT assessment brought to light Judy's continued limitations in performing daily tasks and recommended personal care assistance. The assessment of Judy's mental state indicated significant emotional distress and a profound effect of the accident on her mental health.
