Love this - aligns so well with Wilcock's (2008) framework of Doing, Being, Becoming and Belonging. Walking as an occupation in #OccupationalTherapy is all of these things and more.. Moving Occupational Therapists

I want you to know that survivors of torture are utterly terrified of being bundled onto a plane to Rwanda - a notorious torturing state. I met with around 20 survivors today in treatment at our Manchester rehabilitation centre and this was top of their agenda.

Yes!! 🙌🏼

Time flies when you are having fun.. here are some of my highlights from #ECFS2024 but definitely glad to be home now! Grateful for the opportunity to attend and be inspired by the wider CF community. Huge thanks also to Royal College of Occupational Therapists for funding my travel to Glasgow 🙏🏼

With the conclusion of #ECFS2024 , I want to give a shout out to the wonderful Luigi Graziano , a respiratory therapist who first presented this work 7 years ago at #ECFS2017 and has encouraged me to keep pushing and believing in the role of OT in CF. A true pioneer 💫

I asked our panellists for two words to describe #OccupationalTherapy in 2035. This is what they said: Confident Occupation-focussed Leading Community services Plentiful and diverse Responsive and EVERYWHERE What are your two words for the future? #RCOT2024

Taking a break from #RCOT2024 to attend a GP appointment - appreciated the opportunity for an active and mindful break through the local park 🏕️

"When referrals to the memory clinic were completed by #OccupationalTherapy, 100% were appropriate compared to 77% from GPs" - thank you Lister, Suzy and Cheryl for sharing your innovative work at Northwich PCN! #RCOT2024

Often the #PhysicalActivity space can feel over-saturated with many wonderful professionals working in this area, but Sport for Confidence demonstrate the value of focusing on occupations and breaking down barriers to exercise e.g. using the showers after swimming, booking sessions etc.

Very envious of the Swansea pre-registration #OccupationalTherapy students who get to cover a variety of cutting edge topics including AI, genomics, robotics, cybersecurity, wearables etc. in their modules.. My #FOMO levels are off the scale😅 #RCOT2024

Thank you Wendy 🍵! 💚 You’re right, as #OccupationalTherapists we have so much value to offer in the sport and leisure industry (& beyond), focusing on #MeaningfulOccupations & how #PhysicalActivity can be used throughout the OT process. #RCOT2024 #Movement #OT #AHP

At work today but managed to catch the last 30mins of #RCOT2024 at home whilst connecting with my sweet potato jacket with beans 🥔🫘🧀😋

Delighted to see this small mention in the most recent 2024 Cystic Fibrosis Trust Standards of care for #cysticfibrosis 🤩 All thanks to Janet Mitchell and the team from CF inpatient unit -Pearce ward - MFT for advocating on behalf of me and Holly Rosanna 🌻 for sharing her lived experience and why OT is needed🙏🏼🙏🏼
