Hello people! #otalk
Ben Kirkwood 🏳️‍🌈 @OT_BenK
[REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] I have not had any OT experience with trans or nonbionary service users however I know some transgender people ☺️ #OTalk
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
@OTalk_ More so with working with colleagues than service users. #otalk
@mrsmcinburtott
@OTalk_ Fairly! I’m part of our allies group at uni- although more so with student & staff than service users #OTalk
#OTalk @OTalk_
Thanks for sharing hannah. #otalk https://t.co/cg9RKFIaAr
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
On a side note, I watched this TEDx talk to prepare for this topic today. https://t.co/qn783oNPSg #otalk #lgbtq

Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
[REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] And for this question- for OT folks who belong in this population, we should encourage them to not only educate us, but also to public. #otalk
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
[REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] And another thing we can do- set positive examples when we have placement students! #otalk
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
[REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] And there is also a strong community on Facebook in a 4OT group called LGBT4OT. #otalk
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
[REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] And as for me (as I consider myself as an online influencer/thought leader), supporting causes by influencers from LGBTQ+ community is also important. #otalk
Hiral Khatri @DrHiralKhatri
@OTalk_ I have never worked. I mean not at all familiar. #OTALK
@mrsmcinburtott
[REDACTED USER] My experience too #OTalk
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
[REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] One OT I know- @djakikoluv belongs in this community too. #otalk
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
[REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] Or the fact that the LGBT4OT group needs greater visibility. #otalk
Hiral Khatri @DrHiralKhatri
[REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] #OTalk I believe, we can go with the same flow of basics. helping to meet their needs and independence through client-centered-approach. May be there can be challenging requests for us to work on, but I believe that is what we do every day. Being more creative & treating.
@mrsmcinburtott
[REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] It really wouldn’t be too much to consider is it essential to consider when we need to know someone’s gender?! Forms seem to ask routinely #OTalk
Hiral Khatri @DrHiralKhatri
[REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] I agree to the Advocate part #Otalk 💯

Samuel Merritt University @SamuelMerrittU
Calling all #OccupationalTherapists & students! @AOTAInc #OTalk https://t.co/AFgcPKbQCt
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
@GillianMMXVII [REDACTED USER] And I think the TED platform is doing a good job too. There are some awesome videos I have come across in recent months. #otalk
@mrsmcinburtott
[REDACTED USER] Childish sniggering is the worst. So disrespectful #OTalk
#OTalk @OTalk_
Question 3 #OTalk https://t.co/N5uuFvtgK8
@mrsmcinburtott
[REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] We need to do more too #OTalk
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
[REDACTED USER] Seeing that in front of my eyes of a friend I got to know- I see that she is trying to go about life like normal. But at the same time, the sexual identity transition is always a work in progress. #otalk
#OTalk @OTalk_
Couldn’t agree more - #otalk https://t.co/9FZRZJj5ZM
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
[REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] Although with Chinese names... you still be better off to ask what they prefer. wallet name might not be enough. #otalk
#OTalk @OTalk_
Welcome #OTalk https://t.co/IZ1BAkn7po
@mrsmcinburtott
Today at Derby there was the Derbyshire LGBT & role models event - we have great champions at Derby uni but still more work to be done #OTalk https://t.co/6eZlksxCGC
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
[REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] I like that... just like anybody else we encounter. #otalk
#OTalk @OTalk_
And you caught it before me so you get to get off the naughty step #otalk https://t.co/xLhXQg1DPa
@mrsmcinburtott
@BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] Agree - we really need to find out officially recognised name and the name of preference. We were very conscious of not offending our international students #OTalk
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
[REDACTED USER] Invite such service users to be our guest lecturers... and especially if we address topics like sexuality. #otalk
#OTalk @OTalk_
Great point!! #otalk https://t.co/wIzoVHPZIW
#OTalk @OTalk_
Question 4 #otalk https://t.co/slTphoA2Ct
Ben Kirkwood 🏳️‍🌈 @OT_BenK
[REDACTED USER] We have to be open minded about which pronouns we should use as therapists to create the best therapy we can provide for the service user! #OTalk
#OTalk @OTalk_
And we are just over half way! Is everyone ok out there? #OTALK

#OTalk don’t forget the hashtag https://t.co/BO1kadUYSi
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
[REDACTED USER] And as I said before... we got to set positive tones for placement students if we have them. If we don’t do a good job, how can we expect our future generations to do well? #otalk
Ben Kirkwood 🏳️‍🌈 @OT_BenK
@BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] I agree Bill I think that would be really intresting to gain a prospective about transgender and non binary service users!🏳️‍🌈 #otalk
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
[REDACTED USER] I might generate a playlist of LGBTQ TEDx/TED talks soon. I think once that is made, it needs to be widely circulated across OT. #otalk
@mrsmcinburtott
[REDACTED USER] I like this. Surely there are rare occasions when we need to know about a persons genitals in every day assessments. If you really need to know (discussing toiletting for example) it’s just intrusive otherwise #OTalk
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
@ot_benk [REDACTED USER] And since a lot of us also have troubles with sexuality in practice, why not kill 2 birds with one stone? #otalk

#OTalk guest speakers would be amazing or some how incorporate a question during an initial assessment? I would love to learn more about LGBTQ+ community and how it’s to be incorporated in to health care practice 🏳️‍🌈
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
[REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] And speaking of which, if we are conducting any form of research, make sure we give them as many available options as possible. #otalk

Question 5 #OTalk https://t.co/XEyea0YkWI
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
[REDACTED USER] I think it will be great if we have some champions from this community to represent OT globally! #otalk
@mrsmcinburtott
[REDACTED USER] I feel an HEI collaboration coming on [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] it’s got to be good to start with student education #OTalk
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
[REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] While I am not in LGBTQ community, what I am doing can be a blueprint for such champions to follow. #otalk

Only 15 mins left #OTalk
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
[REDACTED USER] I will expand that to ALL workplaces that OT practitioners work in needs to have at least sensitivity trainings. #otalk
Ben Kirkwood 🏳️‍🌈 @OT_BenK
@OTalk_ I think peronsonally some men may feel more comfortable around woman and vice versa! I feel like this could make some feel not as excepted when with single sex due to old misconceptions which could make one feel less expressive of them selfs? #OTalk
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
@bevsaturtle [REDACTED USER] That is why generating a TED/TEDx talk playlist is one item of my to-do list. Once it is made, it will be great for everyone to share it! #otalk
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
[REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] Yes- whether in our education or CPD courses we have in the future. We all need refreshers sometimes. #otalk

[REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] Same goes with nursing home settings in US. Hard to do when these buildings are built in the 50’s or earlier. #otalk
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
[REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] I will expand that to all OT associations... and @thewfot needs to set awesome examples for us. #otalk

Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
[REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] @OTBrianNY [REDACTED USER] In Cantonese, I actually like how inclusive we can be with language if we are referring to at least 2 people. A singular LGBTQ person, though, that was the only flaw I see. #otalk
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
https://t.co/TK4pTnXujM Here is something from @AOTAInc about LGBTQ. #otalk
Ben Kirkwood 🏳️‍🌈 @OT_BenK
I loved tonight’s #OTalk as a gay man my self I found it very interesting to think about the wider LGBTQ+ community and how as OTs can promote and educate ourselves and other about Trans and non binary people! I’d love to work within the community during my OT career! 🌈
