As a mental health OT, taking care of our own mental health is a no brainer. But, how are we doing this and how do we want to do this in the future?

If you are a MH OT working in a Vic public MH service, help us explore this topic further by participating in a short survey.

Absolute pleasure to sit on this scientific panel exploring neurodiverse affirming occupational therapy practice and research with @BillWongOT @aurbanowicz @CarolineMillsOT at #OTAUS2023

[Anna Urbanowicz @aurbanowicz]

Key take away: our behaviour and language as OTs is more powerful than we think. Thank you to the panelists for sharing your insights!

[Anna Urbanowicz @aurbanowicz]

Finishing Day 1 of #OTAus2023 with a stellar panel of lived experience experts and a game of - ignite or extinguish the therapists behaviour.

[Anna Urbanowicz @aurbanowicz]

Let’s make neurodiversity-affirming practice everyone’s business. All OT’s, not just those working within the NDIS, need to be able to effectively support neurodivergent people in an affirming and strengths based way.

[Anna Urbanowicz @aurbanowicz]

Loved chatting all things #neurodiversity #affirming #OccupationalTherapy at #OTAus2023 with @BillWongOT @CarolineMillsOT @truly_radical_

[Anna Urbanowicz @aurbanowicz]

Thank you to everyone in the audience who shared their experiences and engaged in the discussion. We can only become more neurodiversity-affirming by sharing and learning from one another, especially our neurodivergent colleagues.

[Anna Urbanowicz @aurbanowicz]

@NDRP_Aus I just noticed the link doesn't seem to be working... is it possible to get a new link? Thanks!

[National Disability Research Partnership (NDRP) @NDRP_Aus]

There’s still time to have your say on the draft NDRP research agenda. The research agenda will guide what research is funded by the NDRP – so it’s important we get it right and hear from as many people as possible. Closing this Friday 26 May.

Thank you to all the Australian paediatric occupational therapists who have already completed the survey for this project! We are still looking for AHPRA-registered paediatric occupational therapists to complete this survey about your practice https://t.co/QjoiwTYICH

[OT at Deakin @DeakinOT]

What should occupational therapists should know about mental health? @Deakin & @otaust are developing learning resources. We want to hear from members of the peer workforce! Get in touch with @DanielleHitch to find out more! @IHT_Deakin
