    1. maze test, short blessed test, pedal reaction speed test, dynavision reaction speed test, Optec vision assessment, and route finding assessment

      Capitalize proper names of assessments

    1. 'Forgotten Aspects of Stroke Recovery and How to Treat Them' and Sex-Positive Communication about Sexual Health between the Client and the OT Practitioner,

      You placed one title in quotes but not the other. It might be easier to italicize titles of works.

    1. At Pi Beta Phi, we have weekly Patient Care Conferences (PCC) meetings where all rehabilitation team members come together to discuss client outcomes, care plans, and progress toward goals. It allows us to promote crossover between therapy sessions and builds a more unified team approach to client care. Below I have included a picture of a screenshot from a discussion post where I discuss these meetings.

      Write in past tense

    2. They were interested in placing the affected limb on the vibration plate while weight-bearing and completing a functional task with the non-affected limb

      I am curious if they were referring to both upper and lower limbs?

    1. I also have utilized the facility dog in treatment sessions with clients struggling with self-motivation to allow clients feeling guilty about the level of assistance their loved ones have to give to act as caretakers during the session.

      Please break this down--very difficult for me to follow.

    1. I am a second-year occupational therapy student and am about to start my level II fieldwork rotations for the next 6 months. My first rotation is at a pediatric outpatient clinic in Melbourne, FL. My second rotation will be in a neurology clinic in Nashville, TN.

      Change to past tense since this is now in the rear-view mirror.

    1. This demonstrated growth in applying the domain of occupational therapy throughout the therapy process.

      Please provide a specific example of how you accomplished this during FW.

    2. The following images were from fieldwork placement B in outpatient pediatrics from the screening and evaluation section of the AOTA final rating one 3s for proficient and the remainder of 4s for exemplary performance.

      Please break down this long sentence.

    1. was able to share

      "Was able to" implies you had the opportunity, but doesn't necessarily mean that you did it. "Shared" is more precise to illustrate that you actually did it.

    1. hine

      Lovely! I did this a lot when I saw patient in a similar setting. I was surprised often at how soon they wanted to go back indoors! They often lost their tolerance for being outdoors, became cold very quickly, or couldn't stand the slightest breeze. Interesting what occupational deprivation can do.

    1. I was able to

      When you use the phrase "I was able to", you imply that you had the opportunity, but it doesn't necessarily mean that you actually did it. It's clearer if you rephrase and use the correct verb, e.g., "I discussed...etc".

    2. Pictured below is a comment from my fieldwork educator explaining my progress with communicating the OT process, as well as my performance score for articulating the value of OT

      Briefly provide a synopsis so that the reader doesn't need to look for the information in the image. "Pictured below is a comment from my fieldwork educator explaining my progress with communicating the OT process, as well as my exemplary performance score for articulating the value of OT"

    1. esemble

      resemble means that they look similar to....but these are the real thing!! I think you need a different verb. Perhaps the sentence can read, "These handwritten personable cards are evidence of the impact I made at each facility".

    2. We came up with a solution of rotating during the day where when I would document the session I observed her treat, I would document the session and vice versa - when I’m treating, she would document.

      Please rewrite for clarity--I think there are a few extra unnecessary words here.

    1. was able to sit down

      "was able to" tells me that you had the opportunity, but doesn't let me know you actually did it. Consider rephrasing: "I sat down with...and taught her...". One of my first certifications as a newly minted OT was a CIMI--Certified Infant Massage Instructor. I didn't keep it up, though.

    1. am blessed to say, I am currently a second-year occupational therapy student completing my two 12-week level II rotations. My first rotation is at Encompass Health Inpatient Rehabilitation Hospital in Memphis, TN, and my second rotation is at Baptist Memorial Hospital for Women in the NICU, also located here in Memphis, TN. I am so excited to complete my final fieldwork placements for completion of the MOT program at UTHSC.

      This is beautiful, however, needs to be rewritten to reflect past tense.

    1. Below is a comment from one of my fieldwork educators about my ability to respond to feedbac

      Please give a specific example. Then, please provide a synopsis of the screenshot.

    1. were able to try on

      Here is an example similar to my first comment: instead of "we were able to try on the device"--meaning that you had the opportunity, say instead "we tried on the device". The latter tells me what you did, the former tells me only that you were given the opportunity, but not necessarily that you took it. Let me know if this makes any sense.

    2. was able to participate

      When you write "I was able to...." it leaves the reader wondering if you actually engaged in the activity. The mere fact that you had the opportunity doesn't necessarily tell the reader that you DID do the activity. Think about what you are trying to convey with precision: you can write "I participated in many inservice opportunities". Can you tell the difference?

    1. Myself and the PT d

      This is a side comment: when talking about your work with others, it is customary to include oneself last, i.e., you could rephrase this as "The physical therapist and I did not change....etc." This is just a suggestion for a more conventional style--putting others first before yourself in a sentence.

    1. Below is a discussion post from that rotation where I described how I utilized occupation-centered practice while considering client motivation for a client who was unable to leave her hospital room:

      Provide a synopsis--see previous similar comment.
