Lilly Tessler was one of our first mentors in our Scolios-us Mentor Program and is now on the Mentor Support Team. In this article, she talks about her experience with scoliosis and how connecting with other Mentor Program has given her so much purpose. Lilly is the epitome of turning lemons into lemonade, and we are so proud of her!

Did you know that Scolios-us has integrated three quality-of-life surveys into our website? Access the surveys here: https://lnkd.in/g5FD6gCG We have added the BSSQ-Brace, GAD-7 (Generalized Anxiety Disorder), and PHQ-9 (Patient Health Questionnaire) to our website. Your patients can take the quiz using a phone, iPad, or computer. Their score will be tallied, and they will be given information about what the score means, along with resources. Using quality of life outcome measures in your clinical practice is a GREAT way to screen your patients for anxiety, depression, and brace-related stress. #scoliosus #puttingtheusinscoliosis #scoliosis #scoliosisbrace #bracelove #scoliosisawareness #raiseawareness #bentnotbroken #scoliosissupport #secretproject #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #scolimentalhealth #scoliosismentalhealth #theempowerhour #empowerhour #scoliosiseducation
