HEALING THROUGH RECREATION Recreation is a significant part of the therapeutiC process at Whitby General Hospital. Recreational Therapist Teresa Shearer develops programs which help clients' achieve greater independence and mobility. Many of Shearer's clients have experienced a stroke and have paralysis or speech difficulties. Others are afflicted with chronic, progressive diseases such 'as late-stage multiple scierosis, Parkinson's or Alzheimer's disease. "When someone cornes in they are assessed and put on, a program designed specifically for them,w says Shearer. "I work with the occupational and physical therapists and tailor programrs that fit with a client's particular needw For instance, if the occupational therapist has a client with arthritis doing special hand exercises, Shearer will develop social and craft projects for that individual which use the same muscles. Clients are monitored weekly to see how they are improving. 'We stress independence. If an individual is able to do something without assistance, we encourage him or her to do it," Shearer says. "There's an important difference between encouraging and insisting," Shearer explains. 1I tell volunteers to be gentle but f irm.7 Group activities are encouraged, but each person participates at their own level. Bingo, bowling, shuffleboard, and crafts are just some of the regular activities. In addition, special events like the summer carnival draw past clients back to enjoy the fun. "People form close bonds while they're here," notes Shearer. nOnce they leave, people stay in touch." Shearer says she couldn't do what she does if it weren't for volunteers. "in the summer 1 have an assistant, but during the rest of the year 'm the only staff person. The volunteers really corne through." Somne of the chronic clients are in residence at the hospital for years at a time. The "Resident's Council is very important to them. This counicil of ten is made of f ive residents and five volunteers. Together they plan activities and talk over concernis. Recently they applied for and obtained. a New H-orizon's grant which enabled the department to expand existing programrs and add new ones. "Clients are separated from everything familiar when they corne into the hospital, they lose sef-esteem. The Resident Council gives them a forum for expressing their wants and needs. Il allows peopleto have control over their lives," says Shearer. Space is a problem. The waiting list for chron'c clients te Whitby General Hospital is as long as two and a hait years. The centrepiece of the Hospital's redevelopment program is a new wing. This wing will accomodate the existing 32 continuing care beds plus an additional 36 beds. *for a first class communitrylor This space pro vided as a public service by the Whilby Free Press.
