last week I did some strengthening and balance exercises with an 89 year old lady who had a fractured NOF in the parallel bars. I felt confident with prescribing exercises and with the safety aspect as I had seen a patient the week before and done a few things in the bars with them so it was a bit more familiar. I thought I gave good feedback about correcting the movement pattern of her affected leg during some exercises however for some exercises I needed to do that right from the start because initally the weren't very effective as the movement wasn't correct. The patient felt a little concerned that the knee of her affected leg was clicking and was slightly painful and I felt I gave her good reassurance and a sound explanation as to why it could be doing that. I think in a similiar situation i'll be a little firmer about ensuring the exercise is achieving what it should but without being too picky and that way the patient and their muscles can get the most out of an exercise session! I did some revision about fractured NOF's and fracture healing to make sure I know about any risky positions/movements that shouldn't be done,etc.
