Casually slipping in the @RCOT #otweek2019 mantra with a client. Them: "its just something so simple and its made such a big difference" Me: "Small change with a big impact, that's what we do" #OccupationalTherapyWeek #OccupationalTherapy #superheroes

It's not the #TheOTShow2019 if you've not left at stupid o'clock. #CPD #OccupationalTherapy

This is horrendous. As an OT working with people with learning disabilities. I know that having a job and working is extremely important and meaningful to this client group and they don’t deserve to be exploited. Maybe the conservatives don’t understand basic human rights.

I’ll take the 5% on tampons if it means staying in the EU to be honest

Yesterday the Macmillan MDT at Singleton Hospital helped a patient walk his daughter down the aisle. Using a person centred approach & embracing risk enabled them to make his dream come true. Outstanding work! Swansea Bay NHS jivey @TracySBUHB Jan @Anthony34174504

I feel sheer terror at generational divides displayed here.

So happy to be able to share this work. Boredom is such a critical issue affecting the mental well-being of homeless individuals.

Of all my clients over the past five months nothing has raised the hair on my arms quite like this client and their outcomes. #postiveoutcomes #SocialCareDoneRight #OccupationalTherapy #Wellbeing

Lidl is selling bath and toileting aids. I may soon be out of a job! In all seriousness if only this was on sale there all the time, clients could be saved several weeks on waiting lists. #OccupationalTherapy #SocialCareDoneRight

Took a step back to practice some self care. Pledges to myself include the usual "be social" etc but also to wear makeup ay weekends and bright scrunchies in work. Proud to be a part of green pants army but I feel I lose myself in it. #OccupationalTherapy #OccupationalIdentity

As a nurse,and “Mum” to a special disabled young man, I appreciate how vulnerable this client group is and wanted to demonstrate how important it is at present to hand wash to prevent the spread of infection. He was so excited he wanted me to video it #yearofthenurse #tandgicft

Did you know that an OT is an asset in home design? This article unpacks the role of #OccupationalTherapy in 3 practice settings & how they can collaborate with professionals in the home building industry. #homemodifications #universaldesign udp.ngo/2xuMMpv

#OccupationalTherapists Whatever setting you work in - NHS, local authority, independent or non-statutory - you are phenomenal, you are vital and you are valued.

Whilst working from home I used Skype to demonstrate a manual handling technique to a care provider using Adam Dex. There's no rest for us in the social care sector. #OccupationalTherapy #socialcare #StillWorking #StayHomeSaveLives #COVID19

Dominic Cummings just gave an entire nation another Masterclass in GASLIGHTING. It's not his fault we failed to exercise 'JUDGMENT' like he did in #lockdown. #CumGate is #whiteprivilege personified Let. The. Shit. Storm. Begin. #DominicCummngs
