 | #OTalk @OTalk_ Good evening #OTalk @Helen_OTUK on the account this evening supporting @mrkwhtmnOT have you checked out the blog?https://t.co/0NYK2wZK1O https://t.co/W4ZmuSkRdm |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ #OTalk Discussing Using social, print or broadcast media to promote the profession with @mrkwhtmnOT https://t.co/0NYK2wZK1O https://t.co/sF9j7MrhIt |
 | Helen OTUK @Helen_OTUK @ot_colchester @OTalk_ welcome to #OTalk any questions just ask. |
 | Leanne Field @leafieldot @mrkwhtmnOT @otalk #OTalk and #GBBO - my tuesday night is set :-D Interesting topic Mark! |
 | Jessica Jackson @xjessicakate18x @mrkwhtmnOT I was sat in a GP practice the other day, saw physio leaflets but nothing about OT! Need to spread the word to those who need us #otalk |
 | Deborah Harrison @DebbiiHarrison Evening #OTalk, the blog is great! I’ve got my cup of tea & I’m ready 💚 https://t.co/uCOoFyAEHx |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @mrkwhtmnOT Peeps might just need a min to settle in... but don't worry it will be all go soon enough! #OTalk |
 | Amie Jayne @Amie_OT @mrkwhtmnOT Social media & blogs for first person perspectives, but more is needed in mainstream broadcast and print media to reach the public #OTalk |
| Amie Jayne @Amie_OT As a former journalist and graphic designer this topic is something I'm very interested in #otalk |
 | Kathryn Fox @OccupationalFox Here for #OTalk again this week! Excited to hear what everyone has to say 😊 |
 | Adam Ferry @AdamFerry3 @mrkwhtmnOT @UKTherapyServ supply gp practices with service leaflets explaining role and potential of intervention #OTalk |
 | Kelly M @OTontheTracks @mrkwhtmnOT If love to see more #OccupationalTherapy within fictional drama as this could increase understanding of role if done right #OTalk |
 | Maggie Ruth Morton @SensationalOT Best promotion would be publishing studies showing our role, single case studies in local media, Trust publications, social media... #OTalk https://t.co/cHrXmOGJ42 |
 | Charlie Chung @CharlieChung90 @mrkwhtmnOT #OTalk the challenge is all the "noise" out there. Human interest stories can grab attention. Recent Parkinson's videos were talking points |
| Kelly M @OTontheTracks RT @Amie_OT: @mrkwhtmnOT Social media & blogs for first person perspectives, but more is needed in mainstream broadcast and prin… |
 | Sophie Maynard @SophieMaynard8 @mrkwhtmnOT It’s easy to think the value of printed media is declining but you have to think about where potential clients would read about us #OTalk |
 | Rachel Booth 💚 @OT_rach Just lurking this week, hi all #otalk |
| Jessica Jackson @xjessicakate18x Also, docu-dramas behind the scenes in hospital/GP but no mention of OT! #otalk |
| Deborah Harrison @DebbiiHarrison #OTalk Q1 I talk about occupational therapy as much as I can on my social media & blog to try & reach more people who haven’t heard of it https://t.co/QzZIVQaIIS |
| Kathryn Fox @OccupationalFox @mrkwhtmnOT Inclusion on programs eg. Casualty etc. would go a long way if accurate #OTalk |
| Amie Jayne @Amie_OT @OTontheTracks @mrkwhtmnOT More needs to be done in dramas such as #Holbycity that are a correct representation of OT, sometimes they just don't get it right #OTalk |
 | The power of inclusive cycling @JanetPaske My take is to think about who we want to promote ourselves to and then to think about where we will find them #otalk |
| Helen OTUK @Helen_OTUK @mrkwhtmnOT @otalk #OTalk https://t.co/TtInSseZoz |
| Kathryn Fox @OccupationalFox @xJessicaKate18x Get very frustrated by this! #OTalk |
 | Sarah Sharland @SarahSharland19 @OTalk_ @mrkwhtmnOT This has me thinking! As an OT, I rarely see OT bein promoted on social media #otalk |
| Jessica Jackson @xjessicakate18x @LeaFieldOT @mrkwhtmnOT Exactly! I also think for 'proactive' healthcare, people need to be able to access us not during a crisis #otalk |
| The power of inclusive cycling @JanetPaske ... so patients can be found in surgeries, GPs can be found via RGCP on twitter etc #otalk |
 | Motiv8 NW Wales @motiv8nwwales @mrkwhtmnOT #otalk we need to promote value of #OccupationalTherapy in #socialprescribing |
| Kelly M @OTontheTracks @xJessicaKate18x That is a very valid point. We know OT must be there but why dont we see it. #otalk |
| Amie Jayne @Amie_OT @JanetPaske And how best to fit the audiences, you don't want to publish something aimed at guardian readers in the sun #OTalk |
| Jessica Jackson @xjessicakate18x @OTontheTracks Exactly! Keep seeing physio/SW mentioned on 'Ambulance' - want to scream at them about OT #otalk |
 | Alex: Occupational Therapist @AP_Occupational I've seen #OT mentioned in #StarTrek fanfiction. Seems like more of the same could not hurt. #OTalk |
| Sophie Maynard @SophieMaynard8 @OTontheTracks @mrkwhtmnOT Agreed but the representation also needs to be correct and should be based on real life OT input #OTalk |
 | Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT Hello folks! #otalk |
| Maggie Ruth Morton @SensationalOT @mrkwhtmnOT @Amie_OT Can 2 worlds collide? How could your past occupations improve your present one? #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @Amie_OT: @mrkwhtmnOT Social media & blogs for first person perspectives, but more is needed in mainstream broadcast and prin… |
 | Bethany Marshall @BethjmOT @mrkwhtmnOT I definitely agree with the leaflets displayed in a GP practice & it would be good to have a hospital based TV programme about OT #OTalk |
| Amie Jayne @Amie_OT @OTontheTracks @mrkwhtmnOT I love to watch #HolbyCity but can't stand the poor #OT references #OTalk |
| Rachel Booth 💚 @OT_rach Things like today #worldmentalheathday promote how #OT can help those with MH, hold and event - get press coverage, blog about it #OTalk https://t.co/GiHuMZP4rG |
| Kelly M @OTontheTracks @SensationalOT @mrkwhtmnOT Yes! Looking forward to see how OT is portrayed in this! #OTalk |
| Amie Jayne @Amie_OT @oscar_tangoXVII Really? I wonder how the two managed to meet! #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @OT_Explorer A method I have been using lately is connecting with other TEDx speakers online and share my thoughts about their talks & #valueofot #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @SensationalOT: Best promotion would be publishing studies showing our role, single case studies in local media, Trust publications… |
| Amie Jayne @Amie_OT @SensationalOT @mrkwhtmnOT I think they do in terms of my approach to visual communication, but it's great for helping me to promote the profession #OTalk |
| Kelly M @OTontheTracks Very much agree. We have such a crucial and varied role but you are right it needs to be portrayed correctly! #OTalk https://t.co/ykloDcqndi |
| Jessica Jackson @xjessicakate18x @mrkwhtmnOT @LeaFieldOT But it shouldn't - we have ageing pop, family members are in prime position to know about us and aid in self-management #otalk |
| Alex: Occupational Therapist @AP_Occupational @Amie_OT Some novel individual realised Star Fleet would most probably have #OT 's! #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SensationalOT Yes- @BarbaraKornblau had an opinion article published on @nytimes recently. #otalk |
| Amie Jayne @Amie_OT @oscar_tangoXVII Love it! #OTalk |
| Sophie Maynard @SophieMaynard8 @OTontheTracks A wrongly painted image could also taint the profession! Must respect the power of media #OTalk |
| Jessica Jackson @xjessicakate18x @OTontheTracks @SensationalOT @mrkwhtmnOT One negative is that our profession is so vast, Matt Damon can't possibly incorporate all our roles and wealth of value #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @chungsongyau @mrkwhtmnOT Yes- that’s why TEDx talks are popular! #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @SophieMaynard8: @mrkwhtmnOT It’s easy to think the value of printed media is declining but you have to think about where potential… |

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @OccupationalFox: @mrkwhtmnOT Inclusion on programs eg. Casualty etc. would go a long way if accurate #OTalk |
| Amie Jayne @Amie_OT @SophieMaynard8 @OTontheTracks Definitely, media can either make or break a profession, too often people are easy to publish the bad and forget the positive #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @Amie_OT: @OTontheTracks @mrkwhtmnOT More needs to be done in dramas such as #Holbycity that are a correct representation of… |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @JanetPaske: My take is to think about who we want to promote ourselves to and then to think about where we will find them #otalk |
| Charlie Chung @CharlieChung90 @OTontheTracks #OTalk May need someone to write a very good novel - do for OT what James Heriot did for vets |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ #OTalk Q2..... https://t.co/ENWw9JwAZv |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @JanetPaske This has been my ever evolving social media strategy. That is why I am not satisfied with 9k followers still... lol! #otalk |
| Kelly M @OTontheTracks @SophieMaynard8 A oppurtunity for real life OTs to advice on shows. Its common place to have real life surgeons advising on set, why not OTs too. #Otalk |
| Amie Jayne @Amie_OT @OT_Explorer @SensationalOT @mrkwhtmnOT I can imagine that's a great viewpoint to come from in terms of selling OT #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @SarahSharland19: @OTalk_ @mrkwhtmnOT This has me thinking! As an OT, I rarely see OT bein promoted on social media #otalk |
| Jessica Jackson @xjessicakate18x Commissioners, patients, relatives...everyone!! #otalk #valueofOT https://t.co/WnnyIeIBpl |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @UEAOTSoc @mrkwhtmnOT #OTalk https://t.co/lOxCv7fTrN |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SarahSharland19 @OTalk_ @mrkwhtmnOT I think if we each do our part, it will be better. #otalk |
| Kelly M @OTontheTracks RT @chungsongyau: @OTontheTracks #OTalk May need someone to write a very good novel - do for OT what James Heriot did for vets |
| Alex: Occupational Therapist @AP_Occupational We need to tell everyone 'We don't all believe in oppressive social institutions, or believe Capita sponsorship is acceptable!' #OTalk |
 | Jamie Cardell @OTJme Promoting #Occupationaltherapy through the use of Instagram and Pinterest could be a fun and innovative way of targeting an audience #otalk https://t.co/Rgy9TgVngR |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @MOTIV8NWWALES: @mrkwhtmnOT #otalk we need to promote value of #OccupationalTherapy in #socialprescribing |
| Jessica Jackson @xjessicakate18x @OTontheTracks @SophieMaynard8 I'd love that job!! #otalk |
| The power of inclusive cycling @JanetPaske RT @Amie_OT: @JanetPaske And how best to fit the audiences, you don't want to publish something aimed at guardian readers in the sun #OTalk |
| Amie Jayne @Amie_OT @chungsongyau @OTontheTracks Or a TV show instead of life inside GP practices, life with OT from different roles #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @SensationalOT: @mrkwhtmnOT @Amie_OT Can 2 worlds collide? How could your past occupations improve your present one? #OTalk |

| #OTalk @OTalk_ #OTalk https://t.co/sGmBB1uvLr |
| Kelly M @OTontheTracks @xJessicaKate18x @SophieMaynard8 Me too 😃. #OTalk |
| Sarah Sharland @SarahSharland19 @OTalk_ Everyone! The MDT, service users, students, funding authorities, social media followers #otalk |
| The power of inclusive cycling @JanetPaske #OTalk oh dear, tea just ready and made by someone else. Not good timing ..... |
| Bethany Marshall @BethjmOT @Amie_OT @OTontheTracks @mrkwhtmnOT Some tv dramas haven't shown an accurate picture of OT practice and the work which we do. Such a shame really as it's an amazing role #OTalk |
| Amie Jayne @Amie_OT @OTJme I love using pinterest for looking at different OT interventions especially around art projects #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Amie_OT @SensationalOT @mrkwhtmnOT And speaking of which, do you guys think the Rose Parade float idea was effective this year? #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @OTontheTracks: Very much agree. We have such a crucial and varied role but you are right it needs to be portrayed correctly! #OTalk htt… |
 | OTAmazing @OTAmazing After years of unsuccessful therapies for my child, it was an online conversation w/ an OT that led us to the services we needed. #OTalk https://t.co/tFh7oWAd10 |
| Amie Jayne @Amie_OT @UEAOTSoc @OTalk_ @mrkwhtmnOT This looks really interesting! #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @xJessicaKate18x @mrkwhtmnOT @LeaFieldOT I think that’s why my second TEDx talk was handy. It should have more than 700 views! #otalk |
| Sarah Sharland @SarahSharland19 @JanetPaske @BillWongOT I think starting in schools would be good. Careers fairs etc #otalk |
| Sophie Maynard @SophieMaynard8 @OTontheTracks Would be a +ve way of catching a huge audience. Increased social media is great, but only people with interest in OT would be aware #OTalk |
| Kelly M @OTontheTracks That could be an interesting & informative show #OTalk https://t.co/I8EhxTxJL6 |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @xJessicaKate18x: @mrkwhtmnOT @LeaFieldOT But it shouldn't - we have ageing pop, family members are in prime position to know about u… |
| Helen OTUK @Helen_OTUK @mrkwhtmnOT @UEAOTSoc @OTalk_ @otalk yes! #OTalk |
| Adam Ferry @AdamFerry3 @OTalk_ Providing a consistently high standard to service users with demonstrable outcomes might be enough? #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @SophieMaynard8: @OTontheTracks A wrongly painted image could also taint the profession! Must respect the power of media #OTalk |
| Sophie Maynard @SophieMaynard8 @xJessicaKate18x @OTontheTracks Me too! #OTalk |
| Amie Jayne @Amie_OT @BillWongOT @SensationalOT @mrkwhtmnOT I didn't see the Rose Parade float, what was it? #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SophieMaynard8 @OTontheTracks And also amongst ourselves too! We can’t be rude/unprofessional to one another. #otalk |
| Charlie Chung @CharlieChung90 @Amie_OT #OTalk we need great and original graphic design input. Visual images can have the potential to grab attention and convey meaning quickly |
 | Cara Lawrence @caralawrence I love twitter for remaining up to date with research etc #OTalk |
| Jessica Jackson @xjessicakate18x @BillWongOT @mrkwhtmnOT @LeaFieldOT Tweet a link!! We can increase the views #otalk |
| Kelly M @OTontheTracks RT @SophieMaynard8: @OTontheTracks Would be a +ve way of catching a huge audience. Increased social media is great, but only people wit… |
| Amie Jayne @Amie_OT @OTontheTracks IT would definitely highlight the depth and breadth of the professional landscape for OTs #OTalk |
| Rachel Booth 💚 @OT_rach Everyone, and over and over again, our colleagues, our patients, the general public, each other, commissioners, politicians #otalk https://t.co/8rHVrs9ZbK |
| Sophie Maynard @SophieMaynard8 @BillWongOT @OTontheTracks This is true, mutual respect is important #OTalk |
| Motiv8 NW Wales @motiv8nwwales @SarahSharland19 @JanetPaske @BillWongOT #otalk careers fairs can be fun. Loved doing them. |
| Maggie Ruth Morton @SensationalOT @BillWongOT @Amie_OT @mrkwhtmnOT This is the first I have heard of it! Sounds amazing! So UK, what is our Rose Parade equivalent? 🤔Great work USA 👏🏻👏🏻 #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @mrkwhtmnOT @Amie_OT @SensationalOT Yes- @SarahBream and others from @OTACnews organized a float to be displayed at rose parade float to celebrate 100th b-day. #otalk |
| Bethany Marshall @BethjmOT After my previous placement, I believe it would be useful to educate other members of the MDT in order for us to all work together #OTalk https://t.co/WSg9pasNqK |
| Cara Lawrence @caralawrence Can I be cheeky #OTalk how can I use it for my CPD profile? #chosenone |
| Amie Jayne @Amie_OT @chungsongyau Yes I'm a great fan of infographics and information through visual format rather than pages and pages of words #OTalk |
| Bethany Marshall @BethjmOT RT @SophieMaynard8: @OTontheTracks A wrongly painted image could also taint the profession! Must respect the power of media #OTalk |
| Kelly M @OTontheTracks @BethjmOT @Amie_OT @mrkwhtmnOT Agreed. We need to help them get it right. The ones working as OTs on the ground surely are best placed to help with this! #OTalk |
| Amie Jayne @Amie_OT @BillWongOT @mrkwhtmnOT @SensationalOT @SarahBream @OTACnews That sounds brilliant, but I'm not sure what scope there is for this in the UK #OTalk |
| Deborah Harrison @DebbiiHarrison I try to express the power of occupational engagement for wellbeing through my social media, maybe too subtle? #OTalk https://t.co/OQWU2X1mm5 |
| OTAmazing @OTAmazing Our pedi, LPC, and child psychologist never offered OT as an option for us. LPC was intrigued & came to watch OT in action. #OTalk |
| Amie Jayne @Amie_OT @OTontheTracks @BethjmOT @mrkwhtmnOT 100% and it would highlight the profession brilliantly! #OTalk |

 | ed sum Occupational Therapist🌈❤🏴 @musedNeuroOT Can you imagine the stories?! Consultant: "Anything else we can do for you?" Patient: "I want a baby" Consultant handed over to me! #OTalk https://t.co/C3qtN8hioy |
 | Paula Otter @PaulaOtter1 Also really important to communicate our message to medical students ... sharing our role and what we do early on pays dividends #Otalk https://t.co/MSXCA1GJuE |
| Charlie Chung @CharlieChung90 @Amie_OT #OTalk could be the focus of workshops. At recent redesign events in my area, the organisers employed a cartoonist to capture themes. |

 | Jenn @otjenn @OTalk_ Ensuring all ward staff know what we do for patients&refer appropriately! Making our job role clear&how we are different to physio/SW #OTalk |
| Sophie Maynard @SophieMaynard8 @nickyruthsmith @mrkwhtmnOT In terms of younger people it is, as huge focus on social media for all areas, but I agree we can still use print to advantage #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Amie_OT @mrkwhtmnOT @SensationalOT @SarahBream @OTACnews Since we are a global profession, so it should be known globally to celebrate. #otalk |

 | Becky French @becky_1983 #OTalk for younger people, film animation to carry out stories or educate |
| Bethany Marshall @BethjmOT Q2, Showing professionals in the MDT how our assessments are used. Kitchen assessments are often misunderstood in hospitals. #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SophieMaynard8 @nickyruthsmith @mrkwhtmnOT Yes- especially at community events! And some people like free stuff! Pins and pens also do the trick! #otalk |

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @PaulaOtter1 Speaking of which, none of us have been on TEDMed. Maybe one of us should dare to get on one? #otalk |
| OTAmazing @OTAmazing Would be beneficial if these different fields networked with each other. Currently they all appear to operate in their own spheres. #OTalk |
| Sophie Maynard @SophieMaynard8 @BethjmOT I notice this in placement too and in doing so, MDTs will be able to work collaboratively better and give patients advice about OT #OTalk |
| Motiv8 NW Wales @motiv8nwwales @PaulaOtter1 #otalk @PaulaOtter1 Agreed, I've met many medical students believing they would never need to interact with #OccupationalTherapists |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @OTAmazing: Our pedi, LPC, and child psychologist never offered OT as an option for us. LPC was intrigued & came to watch OT in action.… |
| Jenn @otjenn @BethjmOT Totally! It’s not all about the tea! #OTalk |
| Amie Jayne @Amie_OT @LeaFieldOT @mrkwhtmnOT That would be interesting! With the focus on using internet and social media, it would be interesting to see how effective print it #OTalk |

| Alex: Occupational Therapist @AP_Occupational A show like the Walking Dead that shows how versatile and valuable #OT 's are in many situations and settings. #OTalk https://t.co/52XCH6IVHh |
| Sophie Maynard @SophieMaynard8 @mrkwhtmnOT @nickyruthsmith True, if it has managed to make it to print it “must be right” in the eye of the public #OTalk |
| Bethany Marshall @BethjmOT @SophieMaynard8 I feel like this would result in more appropriate referrals & the professionals understanding why the patient would benefit with OT #OTalk |
| Kelly M @OTontheTracks @OT_Explorer @xJessicaKate18x @SensationalOT @mrkwhtmnOT Thats an important point - the complexity of what we do as OTs also needs to be demonstrated. #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @xJessicaKate18x @PaulaOtter1 I think someone with better status like Helene Polatajko would be a better fit. #otalk |

| Amie Jayne @Amie_OT @OTalk_ A campaign that spanned across social media, print and broadcast #OTalk |
| Maggie Ruth Morton @SensationalOT @OT_Explorer @xJessicaKate18x @OTontheTracks @mrkwhtmnOT You gotta start somewhere- representing #OccupationalTherapy in any setting would be a GREAT START #OTalk |
 | #hellomynameis David @D_MARSDEN_OT #OTalk 1.Our practice & documentation are our greatest promotional/publicity tools 2.Service users (always) the rest will fall into place. |

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @BethjmOT @SophieMaynard8 Yes- that is a reason why we are fighting hard in government to have OT’s being able to start home health cases. Currently we can’t #otalk |
| Kelly M @OTontheTracks Do we struggle to do this within our MDT? Nevermind others trying in fictional/media drama & media? #OTalk https://t.co/RUraPgwEma |

 | Dr Lynne Goodacre @LynneGoodacre A really great BBC TV documentary series of real life stories combined with wide range of supporting social media #OTAlk https://t.co/blXzCZGNro |
 | Ayla @AylaOT @mrkwhtmnOT Most importantly we need to communicate to and with those who do not know what we do and how it could be of benefit to them! #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @mrkwhtmnOT It should be at least 10x more intensive than what I am doing now individually! #otalk |
| #hellomynameis David @D_MARSDEN_OT @OTontheTracks @OT_Explorer @xJessicaKate18x @SensationalOT @mrkwhtmnOT #otalk agree and we need to guard against that complexity not confusing those we need to educate! |
| Jessica Jackson @xjessicakate18x @SensationalOT @OT_Explorer @OTontheTracks @mrkwhtmnOT Definitely! Would be interesting to see if @theRCOT can monitor traffic to RCOT webpage post film! #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @mrkwhtmnOT We can’t just rely on our association’s social media managers to do that for us. It should be collaborative. #otalk |
| Bethany Marshall @BethjmOT @OTJenn "You taking *patient* for a chat and some tea?" is what I heard. Without realising we look at how they plan, initiate and sequence #OTalk |
| Kelly M @OTontheTracks @SensationalOT @OT_Explorer @xJessicaKate18x @mrkwhtmnOT We need to start that representation at our local day to day level to build up everyones understanding of our role. #OTalk |
| Amie Jayne @Amie_OT @DebbiiHarrison That would be something I would want to watch! #OTalk |
| Adam Ferry @AdamFerry3 @mrkwhtmnOT #OccupationalTherapy on first emergency care responder programmes alongside paramedic. Backed up with @theRCOT links in content #OTalk |
| Helen OTUK @Helen_OTUK @mrkwhtmnOT @MOTIV8NWWALES @PaulaOtter1 #OTalk yes role play and actors as clients for the exam |
| Jessica Jackson @xjessicakate18x @SensationalOT @OT_Explorer @OTontheTracks @mrkwhtmnOT We also need to jump on the back of it and make sure that we have the resources available to sell ourselves! #otalk |

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @BethjmOT @LeaFieldOT @mrkwhtmnOT Yup! Unfollow is fine. But a block is a little too over the top. #otalk |

| Amie Jayne @Amie_OT @DebbiiHarrison I'm always talking to those around me about what I do, equally have used activity instead of occupation at times #OTalk |

| Helen OTUK @Helen_OTUK @BillWongOT @BethjmOT @LeaFieldOT @mrkwhtmnOT happy to chat after #OTalk if you wish Bill |
| Amie Jayne @Amie_OT @ot_cathy @OTontheTracks @theRCOT Until occupation becomes associated with 'doing' rather than 'work' it will be hard to describe the profession #OTalk |
| Kathryn Fox @OccupationalFox RT @AylaOT: #OTalk - oops I forgot to tag! https://t.co/0DhjulWIN5 |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SensationalOT @mrkwhtmnOT As I said in my media club session, I won’t go for 5. I think I will become too materialistic to chase that number in my career. #otalk |
| Maggie Ruth Morton @SensationalOT Well #otalk, my kids aren’t going to put themselves to bed. Thanks for another great night of stimulating conversation👍🏻😘 |
| Deborah Harrison @DebbiiHarrison Thank you Mark for leading an interesting & thought provoking #OTalk https://t.co/pVqhMCjoNi |

| #OTalk @OTalk_ Thank you @mrkwhtmnOT we love the #OTalk community! https://t.co/Q2Fz5oG9x1 |
| Bethany Marshall @BethjmOT @LeaFieldOT @mrkwhtmnOT Totally agree & this is important as it allows everyone to get involved as we all working towards the same goal of promoting OT #OTalk |

| Kelly M @OTontheTracks We need to support this in our communication, terminology and interactions if we want it to change. #OTalk https://t.co/dUeRZnxG3b |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @oscar_tangoXVII @BethjmOT @LeaFieldOT @mrkwhtmnOT But at the same time, aren’t we supposed to be respectful to our clients no matter their ethnicity and sex orientations? #otalk |
| Charlie Chung @CharlieChung90 @Amie_OT @DebbiiHarrison #Otalk Activity is a useful concrete concept for an opener and then we can bring in "meaningful" and define occupation and how we move on |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ #OTalk Thanks to @mrkwhtmnOT for hosting this evening and everyone for your contributions! @Helen_OTUK signing off the account now! https://t.co/1ZdqvObsxK |

| Amie Jayne @Amie_OT @chungsongyau @DebbiiHarrison Exactly how I've used the terms previously! I try to fit activity, meaning and occupation into my definition #OTalk |
| Kelly M @OTontheTracks @OTalk_ @mrkwhtmnOT Great chat @mrkwhtmnOT! Got sidetracked in a few conversations so look forward to catching up on rest on transcript in a few days! #OTalk |
| Ayla @AylaOT @mrkwhtmnOT Interesting #OTalk tonight! I was late to the party but glad I got on board! Thanks @mrkwhtmnOT for your thought provoking questions! |

| Cathy Cobley @ot_cathy @OTJme In communications and marketing, simple is definitely key #otalk (former marketeer here - you can't escape your former life 😀) |

| Charlie Chung @CharlieChung90 @mrkwhtmnOT #Otalk thanks Mark and @OTalk_ Great session |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @JanetPaske @mrkwhtmnOT @rcot In US sense, it will be those in 3+2 or COTA programs come from? #otalk |
 | Christine Urish @curish @mrkwhtmnOT Explain our profession at every chance we get and empower OT recipients to do the same #OTalk |

| Rachel Booth 💚 @OT_rach Promote the profession, and the impact it has. Not yourself #OTalk https://t.co/1hOY25Ot6R |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @oscar_tangoXVII @BethjmOT @LeaFieldOT @mrkwhtmnOT I think what we learned in school to work in the field should also apply to the way we treat our peers. #otalk |
| Leanne Field @leafieldot @mrkwhtmnOT thanks Mark for an interesting and active hour! #OTalk |
| Alex: Occupational Therapist @AP_Occupational #OTalk over, now if you'll excuse me I'll be working on convoluted reasoning as to why writing fiction involving #OT 's is CPD |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @oscar_tangoXVII @BethjmOT @LeaFieldOT @mrkwhtmnOT It’s a problem across several different contexts. #otalk |
| Bethany Marshall @BethjmOT Also Include everyone both qualified professionals & students in research opportunities to help promote our amazing profession #OTalk https://t.co/bPyENnr3Kl |

| Deborah Harrison @DebbiiHarrison I often meet people who have engaged in occupations as part of their recovery without the assistance of an OT, I make the connection #OTalk https://t.co/FOjO0qrOBe |
| Cathy Cobley @ot_cathy @OTontheTracks @OTalk_ @mrkwhtmnOT Very thought provoking! I managed to join in and not just lurk as before, though it goes so fast i couldn't keep track! #otalk |
| Charlie Chung @CharlieChung90 #OTalk I must thank @CrossCountryUK too. The wifi held up well on my train journey between Birmingham and Edinburgh. 25 mins to go! |
| Rachel Booth 💚 @OT_rach Well done great chat! #otalk https://t.co/ZT3MyCWgUR |

| Sophie Maynard @SophieMaynard8 @mrkwhtmnOT @otalk You did great, the #OTalk fam is so inclusive, you needn’t have worried |
| Bethany Marshall @BethjmOT Notification overload from this past hour, kept up with contributing for #OTalk and managed to watch #GBBO 😀 |
