@StudentOTs I usually jump straight to the C-OSA, see new patients within a week, always followed by intervention in my setting (eating disorders, but not always food based interventions). Didnโt always to interventions in acute adult MH as time /capacity doesnโt allow
Every single day I leave work feeling so proud of my service users and so proud of my profession โค๏ธ I just love being an OT ๐ฅบ #OccupationalTherapy#OT#MHOT
Such an informative and inspiring event at the @RCOT_MH eating disorders study morning. Validating to hear from a service user how impactful OT is in ED recovery โค๏ธ #OccupationalTherapy#OT#MentalHealthOT

Earlier this year I decided it would be fun to crochet a phoenix, with its close symbolism with our profession. It's taken me months, and I'm so proud of it. The phoenix is very much still alive in #OccupationalTherapy, supporting people to rise through the ashes ๐๐ฅ
Weโre delighted to present Avalon and Wisteria wards with our Clinical Inpatient Team of the Year Award! ๐
Both teams were nominated for their continued commitment and dedication, and for the 'Good' CQC rating they received earlier this year. Well done everyone!
