As stress levels peak and grey hairs are threatening, I can only reflect on how grateful I am to be doing this research, supporting the development of outcome measures in #myastheniagravis. What an insightful journey it has been, working alongside such inspiring people! @ucl

One week until my new adventure starts 📚👩🏼‍💻time to learn about Neuromuscular Diseases 🧠 not sure which outweighs the other, nerves or excitement! So looking forward to taking a step closer to my dream! #UCL

We spent last Friday being interviewed by the brilliant @solentacademy, discussing our @SolentNHSTrust #qualityimprovement project. Working in #coproduction is invaluable and I am so proud doing it alongside this passionate and kind lady. Looking forward to the next steps!

[Hayley Smith @hayleysmithOT]

So very excited (and nervous!) for my next adventure 🤓I’m going to have to use parts of my brain I haven’t done in a LONG time 🫣 I’m really looking forward knowing more of the “why” questions, and consistently being able to embrace and embed current research into practice.

[Hayley Smith @hayleysmithOT]

It’s #TimeToTalk Day on Thursday 2 February. It’s a chance for us all to be more open about mental health – to talk, to listen, to change lives.

Make space in your day for a conversation about mental health.

@TaraH_OT How to support another colleague you are supervising that is going through a difficult time, and then a project I have been working on :) I’m sure all interviews will differ, but those are some of the Qs I got asked :) good luck!

[Hayley Smith @hayleysmithOT]

@TaraH_OT I’ve recently just had an interview and some of the questions were around: a specific case study and what my input would look like (think about how this may differ from a B5), safeguarding situations (I’m in children therapies so will differ a bit to MH)
