We're disappointed with @BBCr4today John Humphrey's uninformed comments re OT effectiveness for depression & contacted @BBCRadio4 to rectify

You call it playing Mario Kart, I call it work #OT

I'm glad that one of the first things my practice placement educator told me today was "I failed my last student in lots of sections" 😅

[Dominic Walton OT @OT_DSW]

I love little signs of appreciation like this. Thank you to the staff at @SYorksHA you're all brilliant! #OTshu

The occupational therapist’s goal is to provide the client with skills for the job of living https://t.co/f8a37R9vQj #OT

51.4 seconds on my last 400 effort of 16. Not a bad run.

@OT_DSW @colemanshu1 @RRenable sometimes in my setting, doing a detailed eval can provide opportunities to highlight progress. #otshu

[Philip Mason @pjmasonOT]

@OT_DSW @BillWongOT @nicolafOT Simply ask what matters to you. Not what is the matter with you (not mine) #OTalk

[Dominic Walton OT @OT_DSW]

@colemanshu1 @RRenable what would you define as client centred practice when regarding a quick turnover setting such as A&E? #OTshu

[Dominic Walton OT @OT_DSW]

[Dominic Walton OT @OT_DSW]

That feeling when Maureen 'favourites' your tweet 😏

[Dominic Walton OT @OT_DSW]

I can't wait for @BillWongOT to hopefully get involved 😉 #otshu

[Dominic Walton OT @OT_DSW]

This is in regards to OT's in an A&E setting where clients are followed up at home after initial needs met #otshu

[Shirley Masterson-Ng @shirlmasterson]

@OT_DSW I agree- you have to be realistic. Do what is possible but plan/signpost for the future #otshu

[Dominic Walton OT @OT_DSW]

@colemanshu1 I think person-centred relates to the persons own needs, if met in a short timespan then it is still person-centred #OTshu
