Walking can have a bigger impact on disease risk and various health conditions than just about any other remedy that’s readily available to you. What’s more, it’s free and has practically no negative side effects. #HarvardHealth bit.ly/3Cd1VJC

An inspiring and thought provoking week of lectures and seminars @CCCUOT .The last 2 days a highlight with guest speakers ~ in particular Keith Oliver who obliterated my uneducated perception of dementia. Dr Pat Chung

Today was a great day @CCCUOT . Placement briefing followed by training in the Simulation Suite. #studentot #OccupationalTherapy

I took this in 2016 when I was repatriated from King's College NHS to East Kent Hospitals QEQM and was about to attempt to learn to walk again. Not for ONE second did I dream that I would one day be doing my final OT placement here. #studentOT #rehabilitation #CCCUOT #NeverGiveUp #OT

Humanising critical care is really important to us. Here is one of our consultants making a difference to our patients 🎵 🎸

FINAL placement finished 😢 I’ve had a fantastic 12 weeks with the Medical Therapies team- what a squad! Learnt so much from them, and the additional teams I shadowed.💚 #CCCUOT #EKHUFT #STUDENTOT #RCOT

These two have consistently distracted me, walked/run with me, and cuddled me throughout my OT training and I LOVE them for it 🥰 #dogsarelove #meaningfuloccupation #otstudent

Grateful, proud and excited 💚Just a matter of a few final assignments ….. 🥴 @CCCUOT EKHUFT Therapies East Kent Hospitals

A year ago, Mo, a Consultant Surgeon at University Hospitals Birmingham, returned to surgery after becoming paralysed. ‘It's only possible due to amazing support from University Hospitals Birmingham, the NHS, and colleagues.’ Mo now uses a wheelchair allowing him to continue his beloved job. #UKDisabilityHistoryMonth

A secret surprise delivery into our Therapies Team room from 💫 St Nikolaus 💫

A great 6mnths. 1st OT rotation complete & I graduated! Which means I achieved the meaningful occupational goal I set in hospital 8yrs ago. The purpose -always my girls. But I underestimated how much additional physical, emotional & mental growth I would get in the process.

'Rehabilitation has a life-changing impact on the health and independence of older people, but it is currently under-resourced and under-valued.' We're pleased to support the new rehabilitation report from British Geriatrics Society. Read it here: loom.ly/euxLLfg

Preceptorship complete!! Did not imagine how much joy, happiness & growth would happen in my 1st yr of qualifying as an OT. I have loved EVERY second. This has ALL been down to the amazing T&O and HCOOP teams I have rotated in. Supportive, fun, approachable.💚EKHUFT Therapies
