| A very long DVD!!! It answered many questions that I have had for a while. As the only OT in an outpatient setting, I do not have anyone to bounce ideas off of. I really appreciate the recommendations for products, there are so many out there and it is hard to try them all to find what works...You were also very prompt with emailed questions I had and I really appreciate that the most! |

| I thought this was a wonderful course and perfect for the populations that I work with. It was a great review of several diagnoses. The virtual course was easy to follow along to and the resource is excellent. Thank you. I always enjoy taking your courses. |
