Are physiotherapists and occupational therapists following the guidelines for discharge summary?–An analysis of the content of physiotherapists’ and occupational therapists’ discharge summaries and their adherence to stroke guideline recommendations
While the physiotherapists and occupational therapists complement each other in their assessment of patients and inform the reader about both sensorimotor and cognitive functions and abilities, they omit some of the specific criteria for rehabilitation. Despite the omissions, the information provided is specific to the patients' function and needs.
