The amazing power of occupation: Status quo tapestry made by a paralysed man using his teeth.

Received a very practical gift from a patient's relative today - a homemade spirit level for measuring accurately for ramps!

We are using apps for scanning and cognitive rehab with a individual who's had a stroke. "Visual attention therapy" and "match" apps working well. We are interested in recommendations for other apps that have worked well for scanning.

Congratulations to our Team Lead Occupational Therapist Allison Read who's been nominated in the Outstanding Leader category for the Trust staff awards. Well deserved!

Derek's a keen archer who didn't want his new wheelchair to get in the way of his sport. We came up with a clever solution to keep him on the range. #CharityTuesday https://t.co/sru5GnICTz

A therapy session today involved practising organisational skills and other higher level cognitive skills as part of stroke rehabilitation. Using tidying, laundry and other household tasks to improve planning and initiation. #meaningfulactivity #everydayactivity

As a qualified OT for 30+ years I am extremely offended by the representation of OT in the first half an hour of this program. I have never witnessed an OT talk so patronisingly to a patient or their relatives. Fantastic acting by Alison Steadman and Sheridan Smith.

[CommunityOT@LCH @CommunityOccup2]

@mehitsbeth Sorry to hear about your mum. Strokes are devastating. The programme tonight however shows health professionals providing abysmal care and treatment and showing no compassion to Mary or her family. Very sad to see

[CommunityOT@LCH @CommunityOccup2]

Awful depiction of Occupational Therapy and Stroke Rehab on BBC1 #care. Were no health professionals consulted on this?????
