Yes, that's helpful, thank you!

Hi everyone, I've been in home health for a few years but had a question for others working in peds. I'm caring for a young patient (under 10) with multiple needs including trach and G-tube, and the family has a PT and OT that rotate in a couple times a week. That part's great, but on the days they're not there I've noticed I'm being asked to follow through on their treatment plans in detail (ROM, stretches, positioning, even some sensory stuff). I totally understand supporting therapy goals as part of the care plan, but at what point does it cross into doing someone else's job? I'm all for teamwork, but I'm also trying to stay within scope and not blur professional lines. Would love to hear how others have navigated this in the home setting especially when working solo. Thanks in advance!
