Data Collection

Keep Stepping HEP 

11/24/2020     50/50

While we were unable to continue the Keep Stepping (year 2) class with the older adults due to the pandemic, we were able to work with a student client. I believe this allowed us to think outside the box and use different measures than many of the "normal" measures. My client, Angie was looking to improve her core strength after an abdominal surgery. I was able to do some research and found an interesting and effective test for core strength. At the end of Keep Stepping the test did show an improvement in Angie's core strength. I was required to keep accurate subjective and objective documentation of my client on a weekly basis. This artifact demonstrates my ability to perform data collection essential for carrying out a plan of care, including choosing appropriate measures for musculoskeletal and cardiopulmonary conditions.
