@MarkusFeehily Look after yourself Mark, I hope you recover quickly and as painlessly as possible!

@AHaynes_OT @NeuroOTCRH @royalhospital @DerbyOT Enjoy it! Neuro is fascinating and hospital environments are normally super supportive!

@abbdesmond Thank you, I didn't know this was available! It has a similar feature available for Samsung A models

@RachelOTstudent That's so awesome! They are so lucky to have you on their team! :) 🤗

@carrotcoriander I found the Schon one helpful as it gets you to look at how you felt immediately after then how you feel having had some time to think about it.

@SophieJSmith3 @angpayne72 saw this and thought this is a great example for 1st years POB! 😄

Still thinking of strike posters in case needed:
Occupational Therapists:
"Pay us more & we'll tell you what we do"
"Occupationally Enriched: Financially...."
"Occupying the strike"
"Doing the strike: Being the Striker: Belonging at the picket line: Becoming better paid"
???!!

@abi_ldnsw Happens more than you'd think it would. Really disturbing when it does.

@SophieJSmith3 @theRCOT @BAMEOTUK @AbleOTUK @LGBTQIAOTUK @OT_Expert @thewfot Welcome!!! From someone just finishing the course, my advice is: have fun & enjoy the journey, don't compare yourself to others, take every learning opportunity you can, hang in there when it feels impossible and look at placement as on the job training - don't be intimidated :)

[OT_Anne Kirkwood @ot_anne]

@JessieTuohy_OT I applaud you for raising awareness of this issue and your findings! I wasn't aware of some of the effects people suffer when they have it. Thank you for sharing!
