A typical day

In outpatient work, patients every 30 to 60 minutes from 7am. Assess, then coach: hands-on work on a joint, then exercises you watch and correct rep by rep. Explaining the same thing to the fourth person that day, and persuading someone who has stopped doing their home program. Documentation after every visit, because the insurance company pays on what you wrote. In a hospital it is walking someone to the door of their room for the first time since surgery, and counting that as a win.
