I'm freaking out.. I have my social worker and Occupational therapist coming tomorrow.. but I'm freaking because I have no idea what to expect from it or what she will do etc? Anybody had one? And can tell me what to expect? Thank you.

No worry, you want all the help you can get. The OT will see how you move around your home, how you handle the tub issues (they will probably order you a bath tub chair. Maybe a walker, ask them for a heating they'll get you one,etc. The Social Worker will come to see if you need help keeping your house clean (you have a hard time) Counseling coming too your house - weekly, bi-weekly - take it. If they offer it say yes - God Bless - Sandra

I just went through this with my mom. We built a physical team and they provided equipment and resources to help. We established the basics and worked in small goals. This is for you! Ask questions and tell them your obstacles. Big Hugs!

They are probably coming to see what help you need etc huni. My OT got me my shower put in plus rails on stairs plus a bath seat and step and also a pillow lift and a hand rail for my bed as I can't walk without pain or get up out of bed properly. X hope this helped
