@HurfordJoanne@NicoleCWalmsley@caralawrence#OTalk it is always best to keep these conversations going throughout the services. I think it depends on the individual as some are able to return with signposting and education...other require input over a longer period of time than a community team can hold
@NicoleCWalmsley#OTalk great question...I think both! They can really compliment each other so collaborative working would be great to support the return to work process.
@NicoleCWalmsley#OTalk I agree, pre-stroke difficulties and relationship with manager is important to consider. This also can include understanding work culture e.g. over-time/workload demands to incorporate this into return to work plan/reduce risk of being signed off due to stress
@NicoleCWalmsley#OTalk going back too soon, underestimating fatigue, relationships with manager and employer understanding of condition, financial pressures, time since stroke (sometimes), some jobs with higher level of risk (sometimes)
@JenniferNCrow@NicoleCWalmsley#OTalk helpful to know their contract as this can provide greater understanding as clinicians of evaluating risk re. job loss for that individual and support they may have with reasonable adjustments being integrated
@NicoleCWalmsley#otalk me too! That's where I think our core OT skills are invaluable, because we are able to break down a job role and think of occupational performance issues
