this week i have learned a lot new things in physio n outside of physio
gym. now we change the physiotherapy exercise program.
Monday & Tuesday- SB or sitting balance

Friday and Sat- OT and PT Outside

PT is physiotherapist.her name is ginell, she is not renewing
her contract this june.goin back to her country. now she teaching us
how to handle wheelchairs inventory and cleaning. then the physiotherapy
inventory cheklist.

ginell taught me n another Therapy Assistant how to do wheelchair cleaning n how to noe the
different wheelchairs - w/c .

max 6 w/c depending on the uncle washing.
must check the name n must put the date if u want to sent for cleaning.
a lot of things to learn this year.
anyway i noe the different w/c n the types of w/c

1) Detachable w/c means the wheelchair leg rest can open at the side.
2) Non Detachable w/c means cannot open the wheelchair let rest.
3) Travelling w/c means can put in the can put in the car n very light.
4) Reclining w/c means have head rest. ( those with NGT) NGT Is nastro gastric tube)
5) Elevating w/c means no head rest.

after that, punched out our card then went to medicahl room to take our temp n must record it down inside the file. we followed ginell to find the uncle who will clean the w/c for us.
cannot find hime. i went to the washroom then came out saw him, then i ask him uncle charlie, how many wheelchair do you want to clean. he said 5. ginell is finding hime but i managed to pass
the message to ginell while i saw her outside the workshop. so i told ginell that the uncle wants 5 w/c to be clean.
then went home after that. reached home bathed n ate dinner.
