After gait training during skilled physical therapy, a patient received feedback on noticeable improvements in their gait pattern. Documentation shows that the patient now requires only 50% verbal and tactile cues to reduce gait deficits, compared to 80% during the initial session. Overall, the patient has become less dependent on verbal, tactile, and visual cues during gait, transfers and bed mobility. What stage of motor learning is the patient demonstrating?

The patient received verbal and tactile cues during sit-to-stand exercises. They were instructed to scoot to the edge of the bed, reposition both lower extremities, use their upper extremities to push off the seated surface, and employ the “nose over toes” technique to enhance early lift during the movement. This approach helps the patient understand and assess the requirements for successfully completing sit-to-stands. What skill is the therapist utilizing to improve the patients rehab outcome during sit to stands?
