Many people don’t realize they’ve done too much until they’re already dealing with a difficult recovery. This handout helps individuals identify their own early warning signs (“yellow lights”) and experiment with responding sooner to build more sustainable activity patterns. This printable handout is for occupational therapists and speech-language pathologists working with adult patients, covering Brain Injury, Chronic Pain, Orthopaedics and Progressive Neurological Conditions. Print Resource, US Letter, 1 page. Members can view and print it.
