Celebrating OT week with an open event showcasing the work OTs do at Macclesfield Hospital - had lots of interest from health professionals across the hospital and community… with CPD certificates for all who attended! A brill day to celebrate OTs! 💚 #OTWeek23
Occupations are essential to living. They give our lives meaning, purpose and structure. 💚
This #OTWeek23, help us show people everywhere what occupations, in the context of occupational therapy, are and why they are so important!

⭐️ 'An independent study published in Medical Care Research and Review found that "#OccupationalTherapy is the only spending category where additional spending has a statistically significant association with lower readmission rates" for... heart failure, pneumonia and acute MCI'
"One big problem is that the NHS simply does not value its occupational therapists and physiotherapists."
Great to see the work of occupational therapists & physiotherapists in rehab referenced here. ⬇️

Do you know about Spoon Theory? 🥄
@OT_rach takes a look at the theory and shares why it's something every occupational therapist should know and understand: https://t.co/Zxty19E3Lg

How I think as an Occupational Therapist 🧠
How has the injury / diagnosis affected patient’s day to day activities?? How can I help them return to doing what they were able to do ???
Whether by new techniques/skills or the same ones ✅
What an amazing opportunity! 🌍 I feel like this experience has helped me grow as a person and a professional… roll on placement 4 and qualifying in December 🌈💚 #OccupationalTherapy#OTstudent#SHU@sheffhallamuni

Day well spent at Vial Refugee Camp. Started with a football and table tennis tournament, and finished with a party, with dancing, food and music! #WorldRefugeeDay
Refugee Rights are human rights.

Half way through my first week with @motgofficial in Chios, Greece. I have been leading English lessons, writing CVs, drinking chai, and getting to know everyone. Loving it! Here is a photo of our lovely office.
