We are so grateful for our ARAs and all they do for patients on the ward! Providing additional therapy to patients by incorporating it into the everyday nursing tasks and more. They advocate all professions in their single role and do it amazingly. Thank you ❤️

.@Liz_ORiordan speaks about the Japanese concept of ikigai. How to balance your life; finding the intersection of things you love, that you’re great at, that the world needs, and that you are paid for. You might not have it all in all that you do! #30YearsofWinS

@RosadaSilvaGon1 @MandyGrahamOT @RCOT_NP @OUH_OCE @JaneMcKOT7 @HannahwOT We’re advised to assess on a case by case basis & minimise going if poss eg get photos off a relative/virtual visit. But we often end up doing a visit. In all cases we would assess th home environment somehow to make sure it was safe for discharge. Has info been gathered someway?
