Here for tonight's #OTalk not much experience of working with this area but excited to learn!
Independence Found Ltd @IndepFoundUK
@RCOT_Work @OTalk_ Work is a recognised health outcome and therefore should form an essential part of our assessment and treatment planning #otalk
Healthywork Ltd @HealthyworkLtd
@RCOT_Work @OTalk_ Ask about work at the beginning and later in ot input if a goal to the individual at the end of input too #otalk

@RCOT_Work @OTalk_ It can be a really concrete goal for people at a time when their world has been thrown into turmoil through illness / injury etc #otalk

Unfortunately many therapists shy away from addressing work issues as it’s not seen as core OT business but what can be a more purposeful occupation #OTalk? https://t.co/EUt2Ep6cDh
Lynne Merrett @ot_lynne

This question needs to be asked of OTs in training. Work is core OT business. Vocational Rehabilitation needs to be embedded in undergraduate curriculum #otalk https://t.co/EUt2Ep6cDh

@RCOT_Work @OTalk_ Work is not a stand alone concept. it's integral to out roles, routines, choices & decisions. It should be incorporated the therapy we practice - integral to health and social care. Work outcomes should form part of the pathways we use and the data we collect #otalk
RCOTSSWork @RCOT_Work
Q2. Have you used work as a goal within your practice, and if so in which setting do you work in? #OTalk @OTalk_
Louise Crisp 💫 @louisecrisp5
@JenCooperOT @martincrab @OTalk_ @RCOT_Work I think it also depends on the conditions of patients for example in mental health there is a lot of stigma so it is is essential for OTs to develop positive relationships with employers/community’s to enable that transition back into work to be a smooth one #OTalk

@Rehab_Research I feel that in our training there has been more about being person centred and focusing on the individual's goals which might include vocational rehab, we covered it as a possible specialism in one module #OTalk

@JenCooperOT @LouiseCrisp5 @OTalk_ @RCOT_Work Although, not sure I’m 100% confident in delivering work related interventions. I seem to take more of a suck it and see approach and google is my friend! V challenging when I’ve got 25-35 year olds with no employment hx or recent quals wanting to get into employment. #OTalk

@RCOT_Work @OTalk_ It was a goal for many patients on my placement in Early Supported Stroke Discharge #OTalk

@Rehab_Research @HG1OT I think the OT profession goes through waves. We were built on vocational practice historically and I think we are shifting back to seizing the work agenda #OTalk
Kate Radford @Rehab_Research
@OccupationalFox This is fine but goals change over time. If people are not challenged to think work early after injury, they may lose their job and then chance to return. Surely we have a responsibility to prevent job loss?#otalk
Healthywork Ltd @HealthyworkLtd
@Rehab_Research @HG1OT @martincrab Perhaps listing all types of work interventions ots do could help as some individuals dont need vocational rehabilitation but an assessment in the workplace around reasonable adjustments and graduated plan of hours #otalk

@RCOT_Work @OTalk_ I work across in-pts and out-pts in a major trauma centre I use work as a goal with most of my out-pts(hand therapy) but with hardly any of my in-pts(trauma) it’s not that I don’t consider it, but at that time in their recovery it isn’t top on my patients goal priorities #OTalk

Sue Parkinson @MOHOspark

@Rehab_Research @iFRESHPhD @Lauren_OT @JenCooperOT @LouiseCrisp5 @OTalk_ @RCOT_Work @carina_knightot @JuliePhillipsOT @RetakeStroke I think part of the problem is access to experts in the field too. It helps immensely working with experienced practitioners #OTalk

@HG1OT @Rehab_Research @martincrab You're right - get our collaborators involved in the curriculum - employers, occ health, HR, H&S, Unions - everyone. We can do a lot but we can learn a lot form other perspectives too #otalk

@RCOT_Work @OTalk_ Can I give a plug to the Work Specialist Section webinars? These are a great way for people to upskill for free! #OTalk

@martincrab @HealthyworkLtd @RCOT_Work @OTalk_ No issue picking up the cognitive issues, we use a range of standardised and non-standardised tests, it’s more the abundance of goals that the patients identify early on in the rehab stage that can mean that the goal of work tends not to be a consideration at that time #OTalk
Dr Jain Holmes 💙 @iFRESHPhD
@Rehab_Research @martincrab @Lauren_OT @JenCooperOT @LouiseCrisp5 @OTalk_ @RCOT_Work @carina_knightot @JuliePhillipsOT @RetakeStroke Its academics such as @Rehab_Research who stretch us to think differently and creatively and to search for the evidence that what we do works... or does it???? #OTalk
Rachel OT @_rachelOT
@RCOT_Work @OTalk_ More opportunity to connect with employers and highlight support needs - many of the young adults with LD in my SW role want to work and be independent, but employers don’t always get that it may be a longer journey than usual to get there and lack patience to grade roles #otalk
Kate Radford @Rehab_Research
RT @amylooeze: @HealthyworkLtd @RCOT_Work @OTalk_ I agree, for lots of our patients their biggest long term issues are not physical but congnition and anxiety based!! Not always so easy to identify as the physical problems #OTalk

@martincrab @Rehab_Research @iFRESHPhD @Lauren_OT @JenCooperOT @LouiseCrisp5 @OTalk_ @RCOT_Work @JuliePhillipsOT @RetakeStroke It can feel very lonely if your the only OT doing Voc Rehab in a team....peer support is vital @RCOT_Work @iFRESHPhD @Rehab_Research #OTalk

RT @Rehab_Research: This question needs to be asked of OTs in training. Work is core OT business. Vocational Rehabilitation needs to be embedded in undergraduate curriculum #otalk https://t.co/EUt2Ep6cDh
Kate Radford @Rehab_Research
@amylooeze @HealthyworkLtd @RCOT_Work @OTalk_ Hence the dual training. OTs are well placed to assess #otalk
