I'm trying to think of songs from the perspective of the person doing the medical work, but the only ones I can come up with are ones from the angle of the patient/sick person...
― emil.y, Friday, 16 March 2012 14:48 (fourteen years ago)
ha, me too! i was going to recommend "i think of demons" (or every other roky erickson song) but then i realized that this was supposed to be about the caretaker.
all i have is a badass drawing of three female nurses.

I also have no idea what "assertive outreach" is or whether or not any songs have been written about occupational therapy.
― Laura Lucy Lynn (La Lechera), Friday, 16 March 2012 14:52 (fourteen years ago)
I'd definitely like to hear a song about occupational therapy. I mean, I guess there must be songs about music or art or writing keeping someone just-about sane, right? But I can't think of any.

multiple x-post. assertive outreach (very, very simplistic version) = working with people who, for whatever reason, aren't generally going to turn up to appointments. this might mean, for example, meeting someone at the bench/park/cafe they're known to hang out at or going to their house because they don't leave it.
