 | Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT Hey peeps! #otalk |
 | #OTalk @OTalk_ Welcome to August's #OTalk Research. Tonight our host is [REDACTED USER] Motivated to ensure her research keeps an occupation focus, [REDACTED USER] will be asking us to discuss our thoughts and opinions on this important topic |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Welcome to everyone who is able to join us this evening. Say hello and let us know where you are tweeting from this evening #Otalk https://t.co/thDgEvNp8T |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Thanks [REDACTED USER] for suggesting this great topic and hosting #Otalk tonight. Looking forward to your first question |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] @OTalk_ Your topic seems interesting- and I know this should have global applications, too... and your discussion should also apply to occupational therapy assistants who are also qualified professionals in some countries- like USA. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] My definition will be- research on interventions that utilize occupations in OT practice. The use of occupations can vary from client to client, as well as the therapy practitioners who are facilitating such interventions. #otalk |
 | OTMargaret @margaret_ot @OTalk_ Hi, I am lurking from Dartford, #OTalk I'm passionate about our Occupation based work, we deal with daily life skills and need to keep this focus. Article mentions other professions upskilling in many areas, and we need to be aware and work hard to demonstrate our unique skills. |
| OTMargaret @margaret_ot @OTalk_ #OTalk Q1 Occupation-Based research, I think, is any data gleaned from our assessments and treatments that relate to every day life skills that help improve, teach or adapt to enhance life or improve independence for our service user/patient / families. |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Some great points raised and debates starting already from question 1. I think question 2 will carry that on. What is NOT occupation-based research? #Otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Thank you for sharing #Otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Here's the link to article mentioned earlier. Add it to your reading list #Otalk Thanks [REDACTED USER] |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ How can we ensure occupation is explicit in our research and evidence base? #Otalk |
 | Debra Jeffery 🌈 @Debbiejanej [REDACTED USER] #OTalk I agree [REDACTED USER] I guess research that is not primarily about occupation is not occupation based research?? |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @OTalk_ Maybe we can include it in the article titles? #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Time for question #Otalk |
 | The Occupational Therapy Hub @theOThub RT @OTalk_: How can we ensure occupation is explicit in our research and evidence base? #Otalk https://t.co/W3v37wa2OH |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] Hmmm... we don't want our research article titles to be super long! #otalk https://t.co/tVYj0AwR2y |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] But humor aside, I think we need to do a good job distinguishing what we do is occupation based and why we set ourselves apart from different disciplines. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] Yes- and in some languages, it is hard to find an exact word that means occupations. I think we also need to overcome such challenges so that we can produce high quality research that can apply globally. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] I think this depends. We also need our clinicians' help. So, institutions should partner up with clinicians on this matter. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] Yes- especially in this day and age with governments and policy makers need evidence to justify why we are needed in all the settings we claim we have abilities to be involved in. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] and if we don't showcase our values (particularly in money saved), it will be hard for decision makers to justify why we are a needed service. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @chungsongyau [REDACTED USER] Happens to the best of us @chungsongyau ;-) #Otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @east_ot [REDACTED USER] I think we need to break down the how's for every one of us in contributing in big and small ways. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] I hate to use the TED word again. But, it can be awesome if some of us can go up to that stage and share our effectiveness. I don't think an OT practitioner have made TEDMed yet. Somebody can be the first! #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] Although it is surprising that there aren't too many OT #autism researchers knocking on my door! (I am crossing my fingers that I can help with Australians with theirs, though.) #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Just a few minutes left to discuss our last question. An important one and very relevant to @RCOT current research priorities agenda #Otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ hard to believe that is our hour up. An very interesting chat tonight, lots of food for thought. Make sure to search #Otalk Lots of chats going on which you may have missed. Keep your eye out for the transcript later this week |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Thank you to our host [REDACTED USER] I'm sure you'll agree she did a great job and got us all thinking about this very important issue. [REDACTED USER] signing off the #Otalk account |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Please do keep sharing your thoughts with [REDACTED USER] #Otalk |
