Adam Minor photos EASTFORD — The sun was shining on Eastford Saturday, June 15, as the town held its annual Heritage Day celebration, filled with food, games, a moon bounce, historical exhibits, karaoke, a flag retirement ceremony,and local vendors showing off their wares. A dunk tank was also set up behind the gymnasium to benefit the Recreation Commission by offering opportunities to dunk First Selectman Alan Platt, Fire Chief Gordon Spink Jr., and others. In the center of town, Bowen’s Garage held an antique car show, while Coriander held a craft fair. Near the end of the event, the Eastford Independent Fire Co. set up a sprin- kler for the kids to cool off and enjoy.

Sarah Medlyn-Chuck Licensed Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant

Making connections with patients… For those outside of the healthcare field it may be easy to confuse Physical Therapy (PT) with Occupational Therapy (OT). In reality, each of these rehabilitation services plays a dis- tinct and separate role in a patient’s care and recovery. At Regency Heights, the OT staff mem- bers help patients take those crucial steps to regaining the ability to perform daily activities One of the many face painting creations by Missy Marshall at Heritage Day. that are encountered at home and in the community. For Occupational Therapy Assistant Sarah Medlyn-Chuck, each skill regained through therapy is a victory in the march toward physical independence.

In March of 2013, Sarah celebrated her one-year anniversary at Regency Heights. A Woodstock native, Sarah has over 18 years in the healthcare and rehabilitation field and is happy to work at a facility close to where she grew up. Sarah enjoys the personal connections that OT allows her to develop with her patients and appreciates the friendly and familiar faces A face full of chocolate she encounters on a daily basis. For Sarah, bringing a smile to the face of a patient is often the pie! highlight of her day.

Sarah and the OT staff work with patients with injuries and illnesses ranging from broken bones, to pneumonia, dementia, and stroke. Together, the OT staff develops goals specific to each individual patient diagnosis. Often family members are invited to participate in therapy sessions. This puts the patient at ease and also allows for family members who will be mak- ing future caretaking decisions to see developments in the progress of the patient. Sarah is pleased to work with family members, particularly with such tasks as car transfers, getting patients and their families comfortable with the procedure of getting in and out of the car safe- ly. With every activity that patients undertake with their therapy, the goal is always to gage how safely the patient can engage and complete the activity.

As with other departments under the Rehabilitation umbrella, the OT staff utilizes Regency Heights’ new Rehab Gym. The large, open space inside the gym allows Sarah and the OT staff to simulate a home setting for patients to conduct their therapy. This setting includes stairs for patients to practice climbing, an adjustable table to simulate a bed, and a large bathroom with a variety of tubs that can be adjusted to the size of the tubs patients will encounter in their homes. As well, the kitchen is fully stocked with utensils and cookware and gives the staff an opportunity to observe how effectively and safely patients can prepare food. OT patients may also use the Wii to work on their mobility and flexibility, while having fun and socializing. In the future, Sarah looks forward to seeing one of the current patient rooms being transformed into a simulated apartment. This will allow the OT staff to observe and measure a patient’s ability to navigate the space and adjust their therapy if needed.

For Sarah, her position as an OT Assistant is focused on providing the best patient care and creating a supportive environment for them to thrive. Full of challenges and rewards, the con- nections made between patients and staff members like Sarah Medlyn-Chuck are all part of Regency Heights feeling like a home away from home.
