OVERVIEW - Conversation: Pete and Deb joke about Pete’s microphone being on the floor and his pre-podcast snacking. We also talk a bit about equipment design and fabrication because Deb’s friend and OT colleague designed a new piece of adaptive equipment. Pete shared his experience around production based on the arm skate he designed. It’s a fun and interesting conversation!  

EPISODE SUMMARY: This episode of NOGGINS & NEURONS: Stroke and TBI Recovery Simplified recaps our thoughts and perspectives on the conversation we had with vision expert, Dr. Mary Warren. In this episode Pete and Deb talk about:

  • The OTA students’ love for Pete and the PTA students quick grasp of neuro concepts
  • Deb’s AOTA proposal acceptance for the national conference in spring ’22 and Pete’s talk withdrawal from ACRM
  • Noggins And Neurons podcast and Facebook stats
  • Pete’s reminder that practitioners have an inside track to what the research shows works and practice-based intervention
  • Stupid questions, feeling stupid and professional relationships
  • The negative impact of missing vision deficits, how to pick them up sooner and appropriate intervention strategies
  • Quick screen to determine if a visual field cut is present
  • Optometrist vs Ophthalmologist clarification
  • biVABA vision assessment, how to locate it, YouTube video demo and more
  • Vision interventions to implement now
  • Pete explains ABAB experiment design
  • Dr. Mary Warren conversation snippets followed by Deb and Pete thoughts
  • We love talking about what we learned in the Vision episodes with Dr. Warren. Review certainly helps us grow in our roles as clinicians and educators; Pete and I hope you find benefit too!

    As always, we want to hear your top takeaways!
