Occupational Therapist. Passionate about Disability Awareness, Communication and Makaton 🌸 Currently in Australia 🇦🇺 @CommuniKate_ot #DisabilityRedefined
Amazing thing happened Saturday. My friend and I came across a lost child in London. We stopped to help and realised she had Down Syndrome and used Makaton to communicate. Thankfully I was able to sign with her and with help from the police she was reunited with her family. Wow!
I wish they’d do documentaries following AHPs in the NHS. I love watching shows like 24 Hours and Saving Our Nurses, but it’d be so wonderful for people to see AHPs in their roles. It might even open their eyes to job opportunities they didn’t know were out there!
A Friend. ❤️
Someone you can depend on.
Who cares about you
That makes you smile. 🙂
We are talking all things friendship this #LDWeek2020

Hello #Paediatric#OccupationalTherapist wherever you are 🤗 I am looking for some advice on how you structure your therapy sessions. Do you sing songs at the beginning and end? Do you have any advice for me as I transition into Paediatric services. Thank you #OT#therapy

I believe everyone should be able to communicate their needs, wants, preferences and choices. Makaton can really help people do that. Follow @MakatonCharity for more information and access to courses ☺️
Welcome to my new page to spread Makaton and communication awareness☺️ I would love if you could check out my daily signed videos and hopefully this may help you in your professional or personal lives 🌟👌🏼 thank you so much 😊
Calling all #PediatricOTs#AHPs I am about to begin a job working as an OT with children and adults in an NDIS setting. Please could you give me some ideas of therapy equipment / crafts you keep in your car ready for your therapy 🙏🏼 I would love to make a toolbox 🌟 thank you ☺️
