#OTalk @OTalk_ RT @OTCoachUK: @OTalk_ Recognition is needed in all sorts of ways: | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow RT @OTCoachUK: @OTalk_ Recognition is needed in all sorts of ways: | |
Society for the Study of Occupation: USA @OccSci_USA #OTalk! Happening right now. | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow Good question...what’s everyone’s thoughts? #OTalk | |
#OTalk @OTalk_ Question 1 #OTalk | |
Juliette Truman @Jt12Truman @OTCoachUK #OTalk perhaps when people don’t value the power of occupation and believe what we do is common sense?! | |
Holleigh Bryan 💚🏴 @HolleighLouise @OTCoachUK I think often the general public and even other HCPs do not know what we do. And there are occasions where other HCPs do not consider our role important and instead see us as ‘basket weavers’. the fact that OTs are not already in roles where an OT would help massively! #OTalk | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow RT @kerri_schOT: | |
Bel Youngson @OTBelY @OTalk_ @OTCoachUK #Otalk I don't think we shout out about OT enough | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow RT @theotservice: | |
Holleigh Bryan 💚🏴 @HolleighLouise @kerri_schOT @OTCoachUK Completely agree. I am yet to see a hospital TV show where an OT and their role is depicted! #OTalk | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow What could OTs do to help improve this? #OTalk | |
Juliette Truman @Jt12Truman @HollytheOT I agree we need to get better at demonstrating our impact by hearing and celebrating the voices of the people we have the privilege to work with #OTalk | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow RT @EmmaRobinsonOT: | |
Laura Murphy @MurphytheOT RT @EmmaRobinsonOT: | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow RT @kerri_schOT: | |
Toks O @TokunboTweetz @OTCoachUK As well as lack of understanding of our profession, I think there can sometimes be some role blurring issues. Especially when some other AHPs are occupationally focused (rare find, but there are some out there), some may struggle to see what we are doing differently #OTalk | |
Holleigh Bryan 💚🏴 @HolleighLouise @kerri_schOT @OTCoachUK Definitely! Casualty is the worst for this, they even had doctors doing kitchen assessments a short while back and the only OT I saw mentioned did not show the role, but was just a background character! #otalk | |
Holleigh Bryan 💚🏴 @HolleighLouise @beckycooper___ @kerri_schOT @OTCoachUK Yes! I was so irritated by that episode! #OTALK no wonder the public have no idea what we do, when doctors are doing are role on TV | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow @Louisepenny87 @theotservice @OTCoachUK Interesting question? What should OTs be called #OTalk | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow RT @OT_Child: | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow RT @kerri_schOT: | |
Juliette Truman @Jt12Truman @OTCoachUK @HollytheOT At all levels - empower individuals to ask for us but also those commissioning services across all sectors #OTalk we need to move away from just NHS to truly demonstrate our power | |
#OTalk @OTalk_ You need to use the #OTalk not to @OTalk_ to join in | |
#OTalk @OTalk_ Question 2 #OTalk | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow RT @OTCoachUK: | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow @MurphytheOT @OT_Child What could OT do to improve this? #OTalk | |
deb_OT @dmay_ot #otalk I think one issue is that occupation means something specific to us but is a term commonly used to mean 'work' or 'work-type'. People then really struggle to connect us to something that happens in communities, in hospitals etc | |
Juliette Truman @Jt12Truman @colourful_ot @OTCoachUK #OTalk sometimes it’s the language we use I recently worked with a GP who through listening to me and our talented OT students was able to help us deliver our powerful messages | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow @beckycooper___ Definitely something that should happen. The one thing We’re always surprised at #theotshow is that we have an awards programme because we know OTs deserve it...but we never get as many entries as we think there should be! Why won’t OTs recognise their brilliant work?? #OTalk | |
Toks O @TokunboTweetz @OTCoachUK I think occupational therapists need to be in more ‘everyday’/ primary setting such as schools, GPs, etc to get such recognition. This will also help in reduce the need to access secondary services, as preventative measures will be taken #OTalk | |
Holleigh Bryan 💚🏴 @HolleighLouise @dmay_ot #OTALK I completely agree. As health literacy is becoming a larger focus, it’s highlighting that our own profession is not health literate and accessible to anyone who does not understand our jargon | |
Kirsty Stanley @KEStanley @EmmaRobinsonOT @TheOTShow @OTCoachUK Our lack of consistent professional promotion impacts understanding of our unique skills by other professions leading to challenging encounters #OTalk | |
Kirsty Stanley @KEStanley RT @OTCoachUK: @OTalk_ Recognition is needed in all sorts of ways: | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow @MurphytheOT @OT_Child If you have any be sure to send them to @TheOTShow we’re more than happy to promote out in our newspaper! #OTalk | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow RT @kerri_schOT: | |
Rachel Payne @RachieRuu @OTCoachUK @musedNeuroOT This is so true. My grandparents have this opinion of OT, and whilst on a forensic mental health placement I was constantly telling them how OT works there as they didn't get it. This could be why the public aren't so sure about the profession. #OTalk | |
#OTalk @OTalk_ RT @becky_1983: | |
Holleigh Bryan 💚🏴 @HolleighLouise @OTCoachUK I’d like to think everybody. I think there’s a large body of people out there who cannot access certain occupations but don’t think there’s anything they can do about it, so simply go without or struggle on #OTALk | |
Toks O @TokunboTweetz @ciderwithsophie @colourful_ot @OTCoachUK Agreed! Which is why I think we need to keep on top of staying up to date with theory, literature, networking, etc to keep present and occupationally focused, and represent the uniqueness of our profession #OTalk | |
Teresa Buchan @teresa_buchan @OTCoachUK We use every day ordinary activities as interventions, doesn't look flashy or glossy but has impact, but we play it down. Our patients are our voices of impact and recognition #OTalk | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow @ciderwithsophie @MurphytheOT @OT_Child Could OTs be brash about each other though? Is there anything stopping them from recognising or nominating their team or colleagues? #otalk | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow RT @KEStanley: @EmmaRobinsonOT @TheOTShow @OTCoachUK Our lack of consistent professional promotion impacts understanding of our unique skills by other professions leading to challenging encounters #OTalk | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow RT @OTCoachUK: | |
Juliette Truman @Jt12Truman @TheOTShow @beckycooper___ Again it’s about us valuing the power of occupation and ourselves as occupational therapists - self belief - recognising that what we consider is small can be life changing or life enhancing and therefore worthy of recognition #OTalk | |
Toks O @TokunboTweetz @OTCoachUK @musedNeuroOT Also, sometimes, people first impression is sadly “oh, the one who couldn’t really explain what they do”. So they actually don’t remember/ recognise us. Highlighting our need to be confident in explaining our role #OTalk | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow @Lucygordon83 @beckycooper___ Make sure you tell us @TheOTShow about it and we’ll promote it out to your Ot colleagues and more...we love OT stories and the activity that is done to promote it! #OTalk | |
Holleigh Bryan 💚🏴 @HolleighLouise @colourful_ot @dmay_ot Very true and I agree that’s definitely what needs to be done and I really wouldn’t want our name changed but it does lead to a lot of vocation/occupation confusions #OTAlK | |
Juliette Truman @Jt12Truman @TokunboTweetz @OTCoachUK Agree, We can then focus on our Occupational perspective and feel less pressured into medical approaches #OTalk | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow @beckycooper___ Yes you definitely can! You can read more about this at https://t.co/dG1lLr8y6Q and we’ve just extended the deadline to 28th Sep to get more entries 👍 #OTalk | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow RT @beckycooper___: | |
Holleigh Bryan 💚🏴 @HolleighLouise @beckycooper___ @OTCoachUK Yes! Careers events is so important, often OT is not even suggested to people looking at health careers in schools - at least it wasn’t for me! #OTALk | |
Teresa Buchan @teresa_buchan @OTCoachUK We don't promote ourselves and our achievements. The ordinary can have extraordinary outcomes. But do we shout about it? No, why not? If we embed clinical and patient reported outcomes into our practice we can demonstrate it more easily #OTalk | |
Juliette Truman @Jt12Truman @OTCoachUK Our clients/ service users as they are our most powerful advocates. #OTalk | |
#OTalk @OTalk_ Question 3 #OTalk | |
Holleigh Bryan 💚🏴 @HolleighLouise RT @LucyJPearce: | |
#OTalk @OTalk_ Halfway through People #otalk | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow @HollytheOT @OTCoachUK Would you be interested in doing a day in the life of an OT for the next #theotshow newspaper? Sounds like a fab idea #OTalk | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow RT @Jt12Truman: @TheOTShow @beckycooper___ Again it’s about us valuing the power of occupation and ourselves as occupational therapists - self belief - recognising that what we consider is small can be life changing or life enhancing and therefore worthy of recognition #OTalk | |
Holleigh Bryan 💚🏴 @HolleighLouise @OTCoachUK Not being mentioned in careers talks or advice, it’s a huge shame really! #OTALK | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow RT @OTCoachUK: | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow RT @OTalk_: Question 3 #OTalk | |
Toks O @TokunboTweetz @OTCoachUK Example from a friend when she told someone she was an OT: “OH YOU’RE OT! you’re gunna make me a professional golfer”. 🤣 She was just glad she wasn’t associated with a commode for once #OTalk | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow @MurphytheOT @OTCoachUK Would you be willing to share these with @theotshow so we could promote on your behalf? #otalk | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow RT @OT_Child: | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow RT @OTCoachUK: | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow RT @OTCoachUK: | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow @MurphytheOT @OTCoachUK Send them to m.kaur@closerstillmedia.com please, these would be great! #OTalk | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow Thank you! #OTalk | |
Teresa Buchan @teresa_buchan @OTCoachUK Organisations overdose on patient feedback and is often generic. We have an annual OT PREM during OT Week, it limits the demand on feedback but is relevant to promoting us during the professional week. We have to work at developing the feedback frequency for OT #OTalk | |
Juliette Truman @Jt12Truman @OTalk_ Developing diverse placements / REPs has not been a problem when highlighting the benefits of occupation to health and wellbeing and the power to prevent illness - I find wears often pushing on an open door however monies to follow is a problem #OTalk | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow Completely agree, great idea! Would you do one? #OTalk | |
#OTalk @OTalk_ We are all doing amazing tonight and remembering the hashtag, well done 👍🏾. Literally no one on my naughty step #Otalk 15 minutes left. | |
#OTalk @OTalk_ Question for #Otalk | |
Holleigh Bryan 💚🏴 @HolleighLouise @dmay_ot @LucyJPearce @colourful_ot I think it’s a matter of changing the environment in terms of the way we discuss and explain occupations and also educating the masses and increasing the knowledge of the individual on a mass scale. #OTALK | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow @ciderwithsophie @HollytheOT @OTCoachUK Yes what are you doing? Maybe @TheOTShow could help promote for you #OTalk | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow RT @OTalk_: Question for #Otalk | |
Juliette Truman @Jt12Truman @GillyGorry @OTCoachUK I agree we need to practice what we preach - trying hard to achieve this as an educationalist to support our students in understanding the power of occupation #OTalk | |
#OTalk @OTalk_ Question 4 🤦🏽♀️ #Otalk - on my own naughty step | |
Juliette Truman @Jt12Truman @Lucygordon83 @TheOTShow Great idea #OTalk | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow That’s a brilliant idea! If you want @TheOTShow to help you with that let us know #OTalk | |
Teresa Buchan @teresa_buchan @OTCoachUK Our Trust has a 'connected' magazine in which OTs have featured, not always in OT specific roles but it's great to share the interventions and outcomes. We also had our Trust Voc Rehab service featured in the English RCOT Getting my life back report @kmptnhs #OTalk #KMPTproud | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow Can anyone help with this question? #OTalk | |
Holleigh Bryan 💚🏴 @HolleighLouise @OTalk_ I often wonder whether patients should be provided with handouts which describes the different healthcare professionals and what they do. It’s hard enough to distinguish all the different uniforms they see each day, let alone remember what they all do! #OTALK | |
#OTalk @OTalk_ 10mins left #OTalk https://t.co/13D4L3LLfG | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow RT @OTCoachUK: | |
Toks O @TokunboTweetz @OTCoachUK Cardiff has something called @IgniteCardiff- a monthly event where people give talks on any topic of their choice (like ted talks), a couple of friends and I are thinking of using this as a platform #OTalk | |
#OTalk @OTalk_ Don’t forget #Otalk, otherwise people won’t see What You’re Tweeting About | |
Holleigh Bryan 💚🏴 @HolleighLouise RT @TokunboTweetz: @OTCoachUK Cardiff has something called @IgniteCardiff- a monthly event where people give talks on any topic of their choice (like ted talks), a couple of friends and I are thinking of using this as a platform #OTalk | |
#OTalk @OTalk_ @GillyGorry @thismorning Absolutely but he described Occupational Therapy appallingly recently #otalk | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow Great question...what does everyone think? #OTalk | |
deb_OT @dmay_ot @TheOTShow I'm sure this has come up on #Otalk before ... any chance of having a list on the website? | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow Definitely up for that @TheOTShow #OTalk | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow RT @OTCoachUK: | |
Holleigh Bryan 💚🏴 @HolleighLouise @beckycooper___ @OTalk_ So many patients say they don’t even know the uniforms apart and when you consider there’s the usual uniforms of the different professions and then uniforms of agency staff too which are different again it can be really confusing, it’s not surprising our role isn’t known #OTalk | |
Teresa Buchan @teresa_buchan @OTCoachUK There are many people we have to influence so we have to adapt to different audiences. Having a strong leadership team in the organisation helps staff know they have support and a foundation to promote and influence. Service users have greatest impact and voice #OTalk | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow Can you share we @TheOTShow please? Would love to see #OTalk | |
#OTalk @OTalk_ Is this done where people work?? It is in my @OT_rach work place, but are they always read and understood? #otalk | |
Holleigh Bryan 💚🏴 @HolleighLouise @TheOTShow I really like patient voice it’s not really OT focused but great for development 😊 #OTalk | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow RT @OTCoachUK: | |
Toks O @TokunboTweetz @OTCoachUK Me too! #OTalk | |
#OTalk @OTalk_ And we have 5 minutes left.. any final thoughts? #OTalk https://t.co/emvqT3LrQH | |
Juliette Truman @Jt12Truman @GillyGorry @OTCoachUK Sure is, but we do have ourselves any other ideas @GillyGorry #OTalk | |
Teresa Buchan @teresa_buchan @TheOTShow @OTCoachUK Use your Trust communications team as they have the connections and can help formulate ideas as well as do their own promotional work on your behalf.#OTalk | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow Let’s discuss via DM tomorrow would be great to find out exactly what you want to do? #OTalk | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow RT @Lucygordon83: | |
Holleigh Bryan 💚🏴 @HolleighLouise @MurphytheOT @OTalk_ @OT_rach Hmm I’ve never actually seen it be done in practice before honestly. How simple, colourful etc have they been in other settings? #OTALK | |
Juliette Truman @Jt12Truman @VickiOT @OTalk_ Excellent idea will try and do something similar #OTalk | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow @ciderwithsophie @HollytheOT @OTCoachUK Would love to promote if you could share #otalk 👍 | |
Carly Fothergill @carlym_86 @OTCoachUK School leavers who are choosing their career pathways. I wish I had known about occupational therapy when I chose my first degree, but I didn't learn about OT until much later #OTalk | |
#OTalk @OTalk_ Dont forget participating in an #OTalk can contribute towards your CPD & hopefully tonights topic will have given you some ideas about implementing or sharing your learning. | |
#OTalk @OTalk_ Right, this is @OT_rach signing off! Bye for now! #OTalk https://t.co/YcAwe9Vda7 | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow Definitely will do thanks! #OTalk | |
Juliette Truman @Jt12Truman RT @OTCoachUK: | |
The OT Show @TheOTShow Love this idea #otalk | |
Teresa Buchan @teresa_buchan @OTCoachUK We depreciate what we do, because to the common eye looks easy and simple. Let's not over complicate things, keep it simple when explaining, and make it relevant to that one person. Personalised interventions with personalised definitions #OTalk | |
Holleigh Bryan 💚🏴 @HolleighLouise Following tonight’s #OTalk I will spend more time with my patients explaining the OT role and how it can benefit them and their recovery! | |
