We had a presentation today after lunch on Generational Differences in the workplace. All the physios attended. It went through the different generations and their good and bad points. It was very general with these!! Surprisingly we had a majority of Gen-Y in the room, whereas the presenter expected a majority of baby boomers. It was interesting but to be honest it felt like a little bit of a waste of time. Perhaps if the topic seemed more relevant it may have been more important. I’m not sure if we will be around for another presentation while we are there, I don’t know how often they have them.
We had a new client come in today. She had fractured her ankle. Unfortunately we didn’t have time to check the x-rays on the computer to see exactly where the fracture was. Her ROM was alright, but not as good as it could be and her strength was decreased. She didn’t like to WB on it, but we will hopefully encourage her to do so. We gave her some theraband exercises and a towel stretch. Her husband came into the session with her and was keen to help in any way possible. It was a little crowded in the cubicle (which normally has 2 people) as we had 4 people in there!! The client asked me if she could continue with her driving lessons and unfortunately I had to tell her not yet (she is 60!). The whole session went very well and I am really looking forward to seeing this client and her husband again.
