Had a much needed break this weekend back with my family to recharge before my last week of placement. Good to be back and see my lovely dog again ❤️wish I could bring her back to university...

Celebrating passing my placement with tea and cake. It has gone by so quickly..! For my last day tomorrow we are having a team breakfast to celebrate 🎉 Really appreciate how welcoming the team have been- it makes such a difference 😊

Happy OT week! #OTWeek2019 #SmallChangeBigImpact Here is a quick illustration of what Occupational Therapy is 😊 So glad to be a part of it! Bring on my first acute placement 💫

When people hear I’m studying occupational therapy people often haven’t heard of it, or think it’s the same as occupational health. So it was great to go to a local sixth form and talk about the variety of the OT role. Thank you to the school for inviting us to visit!

I just donated a special premature nappy to a UK hospital by tweeting #PampersForPreemies - show your support and do the same! 👶

On Friday our final year BSc OT students will present the projects that they have been working on for the past 6 weeks. Exploring the link between occupational science & occupational therapy practice through engagement in creative occupations. UEA OT Society @UEA_Health RCOTStudents

Creative project presentation day! Excited to hear about everyone’s creative ideas

Our final year creative project: REBUILD.

First week of my final elective placement is complete ✅ I’ve loved it but one thing I’ve found difficult is not being able to communicate to patients using their main form of communication of sign language as until this week I hadn’t learnt any signs 1/2

Not being able to understand made me reflect upon how this feels for people who’s main form of communication is sign language. So have a look at this. Read and sign: Make it compulsory for all schools & early years to teach basic signing of some form - chng.it/ss54hrfk 2/2

In addition to the opportunities for employment and/or volunteering we offer at Nansa, we also have an ongoing relationship with the UEA; offering placements for students like Emma. Emma has been wonderful and we will really miss her when she moves on. #NorfolkCareWeek
