 | #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 |
 | 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 |
| #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💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @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💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT As a former journalist and graphic designer this topic is something I'm very interested in #otalk |
 | 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 |
| Jessica Jackson @xJessicaKate18x Also, docu-dramas behind the scenes in hospital/GP but no mention of OT! #otalk |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @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 |
| 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 |
 | Motiv8 Conwy & Denbighshire @MOTIV8NWWALES @mrkwhtmnOT #otalk we need to promote value of #OccupationalTherapy in #socialprescribing |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @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 |
| 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 |
| 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 print media to reach the public #OTalk |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT @OTontheTracks @mrkwhtmnOT I love to watch #HolbyCity but can't stand the poor #OT references #OTalk |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @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: |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @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 |
| 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 |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SensationalOT Yes- @BarbaraKornblau had an opinion article published on @nytimes recently. #otalk |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @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 clients would read about us #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @xJessicaKate18x: Also, docu-dramas behind the scenes in hospital/GP but no mention of OT! #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @DebbiiHarrison: |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @OccupationalFox: |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @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 OT, sometimes they just don't get it right #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @JanetPaske: |
| #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 |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @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: |
| 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 |
 | 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 |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @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: |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @BethjmOT: |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ #OTalk https://t.co/sGmBB1uvLr |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @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: |
 | 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💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @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 |
| 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 |
| 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 us and aid in self-management #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💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @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 |
| Jessica Jackson @xJessicaKate18x @BillWongOT @mrkwhtmnOT @LeaFieldOT Tweet a link!! We can increase the views #otalk |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT @OTontheTracks IT would definitely highlight the depth and breadth of the professional landscape for OTs #OTalk |
| Sophie Maynard @SophieMaynard8 @BillWongOT @OTontheTracks This is true, mutual respect is important #OTalk |
| Motiv8 Conwy & Denbighshire @MOTIV8NWWALES @SarahSharland19 @JanetPaske @BillWongOT #otalk careers fairs can be fun. Loved doing them. |
| 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 |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT @chungsongyau Yes I'm a great fan of infographics and information through visual format rather than pages and pages of words #OTalk |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @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 |
| 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💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT @OTontheTracks @BethjmOT @mrkwhtmnOT 100% and it would highlight the profession brilliantly! #OTalk |
 | 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 |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @xJessicaKate18x @mrkwhtmnOT @LeaFieldOT https://t.co/kTIGPJYXtW #otalk |
| Jessica Jackson @xJessicaKate18x RT @BillWongOT: @xJessicaKate18x @mrkwhtmnOT @LeaFieldOT https://t.co/kTIGPJYXtW #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 |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @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 @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 RT @OTJenn: |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @chungsongyau: |
| 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 Conwy & Denbighshire @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. #OTalk |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @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 |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @Amie_OT: @chungsongyau Yes I'm a great fan of infographics and information through visual format rather than pages and pages of words #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @BethjmOT: |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ #OTalk Q3...... https://t.co/YNfK5J35y4 |
| Sophie Maynard @SophieMaynard8 @becky_1983 @BillWongOT @nickyruthsmith @mrkwhtmnOT Everyone loves a freebie! #OTalk |
| Jessica Jackson @xJessicaKate18x @BillWongOT @PaulaOtter1 I nominate you @BillWongOT #otalk #TEDmed |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @MOTIV8NWWALES: @PaulaOtter1 #otalk @PaulaOtter1 Agreed, I've met many medical students believing they would never need to interact with #OccupationalTherapists |
| 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 |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @xJessicaKate18x @PaulaOtter1 I think someone with better status like Helene Polatajko would be a better fit. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @OTontheTracks: |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @BethjmOT: |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT @OTalk_ A campaign that spanned across social media, print and broadcast #OTalk |
| 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 |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @chungsongyau: |
 | 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 |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @mrkwhtmnOT It should be at least 10x more intensive than what I am doing now individually! #otalk |
| 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 |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT @DebbiiHarrison That would be something I would want to watch! #OTalk |
| 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 |
| Motiv8 Conwy & Denbighshire @MOTIV8NWWALES @OTontheTracks #otalk yes this is an issue, despite explanation, presentation, demonstrating and repeat |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @mrkwhtmnOT And I wish there are more clones of me at OT conferences globally! I double as social media manager sometimes... lol! #otalk |
| Jamie Cardell @OTJme Communicating #Occupationaltherapy to young people can give them an insight into what a career in our profession is about. #OTalk https://t.co/XQ2HH3wnlQ |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT @OTontheTracks @SensationalOT @OT_Explorer @xJessicaKate18x @mrkwhtmnOT True, unless the MDT team can understand our role, how are we going to expect to broadcast and everyone to understand the profession #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @Amie_OT: @OTontheTracks @SensationalOT @OT_Explorer @xJessicaKate18x @mrkwhtmnOT True, unless the MDT team can understand our role, how are we going to expect to broadcast and everyone to understand the profession #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @FranSmartOT: |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ #OTalk https://t.co/B68NhZ5vFO |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT @OTJme The more young people that understand and find a passion for the profession the better #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @OTJme: Communicating #Occupationaltherapy to young people can give them an insight into what a career in our profession is about. #OTalk https://t.co/XQ2HH3wnlQ |
| Sophie Maynard @SophieMaynard8 @mrkwhtmnOT As well as all the new @theRCOT stuff, a documentary where different OT specialities are followed to show the public what we do +why! #OTalk |
| Jessica Jackson @xJessicaKate18x @Amie_OT @OTontheTracks @SensationalOT @OT_Explorer @mrkwhtmnOT I'm sure we've all had the day where the Dr says discharge and the therapists haven't been considered #otalk #mdtworking |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @NinaCogger #OTalk https://t.co/gm53Wr3e9E |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @OTJme That is why being on TEDxyouth last time for me was so great! I get a chance to talk about what I do at 6th grade level! #otalk |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT @TheOutLoudOT @chungsongyau Sounds amazing! Anything to make learning and descriptions made easier the better #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @MOTIV8NWWALES: @OTontheTracks #otalk yes this is an issue, despite explanation, presentation, demonstrating and repeat |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @xJessicaKate18x @SensationalOT @OT_Explorer @OTontheTracks @mrkwhtmnOT I think social media is already an existing resource we can use. Now if people can learn how to run an account like mine for a day! #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ #OTalk https://t.co/I4zfCepygp |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT @LeaFieldOT @OTontheTracks @mrkwhtmnOT It would be interesting to link these together as there was no focus on healthcare through my journalism degree #OTalk |
| Jamie Cardell @OTJme Being able to collaborate with occupational therapists to present and portray the amazing diversity our profession has to offer. #otalk https://t.co/ojc50uHwUP |
| Jessica Jackson @xJessicaKate18x @BillWongOT @SensationalOT @OT_Explorer @OTontheTracks @mrkwhtmnOT Agreed. We need to make sure that for people searching 'OT' the accurate and positive work we do is easy to fine #otalk |
 | Nina Cogger @NinaCogger @OTalk_ #OTalk see what I mean! 😂 |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT @NinaCogger @OTalk_ So true, sometimes the issue is about identifying the audience and finding out the best way to reach them #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ #OTalk #OTalk #OTalk https://t.co/aJjNN0SWpR |
| Jamie Cardell @OTJme To collaborate with occupational therapists to present and portray the amazing diversity our profession has to offer to the world. #otalk https://t.co/ojc50uHwUP |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @xJessicaKate18x @SensationalOT @OT_Explorer @OTontheTracks @mrkwhtmnOT If people can run my account for a day, you will be equipped to run an account like @theRCOT’s! #otalk |
| Jessica Jackson @xJessicaKate18x @AdamFerry3 In my opinion our job is incredibly more diverse and therefore difficult for people to quantify #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @mrkwhtmnOT @xJessicaKate18x @SensationalOT @OT_Explorer @OTontheTracks Be your authentic self, but you also should contribute awesome things constantly. #otalk |
| Sophie Maynard @SophieMaynard8 @BethjmOT @OTJme They say you only tend to know about OT if you’ve had a reason to, like family have had OT input. A shame, such a great profession #OTalk |
| Jamie Cardell @OTJme Agreed. It’s so important to promote all health care professions at schools so that young people can make informed decisions. #otalk https://t.co/0F3yMDqNl9 |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @mrkwhtmnOT @xJessicaKate18x @SensationalOT @OT_Explorer @OTontheTracks And one thing I have been doing- since I connect with so many people, I try my best to meet my fans in real life! #otalk |
 | Movi @mariahenriksso7 RT @OTalk_: #OTalk #OTalk #OTalk https://t.co/aJjNN0SWpR |
| Jamie Cardell @OTJme This is why it’s so important that we go out to schools and promote our wonderful profession #otalk https://t.co/3BRjUeRxUn |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT @FranSmartOT @OTJme @BillWongOT Was that a challenge? For some reason I find sometimes talking to those who are younger is easier to explain the variety of the role #OTalk |
| Sophie Maynard @SophieMaynard8 @FranSmartOT @OTJme @BillWongOT Bring it back to core basics, helping people to do the things they need to do and love to do, get them giving examples & then relate #OTalk |
| Sophie Maynard @SophieMaynard8 RT @OTJme: This is why it’s so important that we go out to schools and promote our wonderful profession #otalk https://t.co/3BRjUeRxUn |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ #OTalk Q4....... https://t.co/DlqwNMK3QZ |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @FranSmartOT @OTJme I would dare you to submit proposals to @tedxteen or local tedxyouth events! You must tailor your talk to younger ppl. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SophieMaynard8 @FranSmartOT @OTJme And don’t use jargon too much. Plain simple language or simple examples will work. #otalk |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT @OT_Explorer @xJessicaKate18x @OTontheTracks @SensationalOT @mrkwhtmnOT Exactly, if we don't start using our professional language to others, how are they ever going to understand #OTalk |
| Sophie Maynard @SophieMaynard8 @mrkwhtmnOT People’s findings, no matter how small, as it may spark interest in bigger research projects and increases our evidence base #OTalk |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT @OTontheTracks @OT_Explorer @xJessicaKate18x @SensationalOT @mrkwhtmnOT It's all about finding the perfect balance! #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Helen_OTUK @FranSmartOT @OTJme @KarenJacobsOT probably should know. #otalk |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT @ot_colchester @FranSmartOT @OTJme @BillWongOT That's a brilliant idea #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SensationalOT @FranSmartOT @OTJme Maybe an open house event for your OT uni’s would work! #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @SophieMaynard8: @mrkwhtmnOT People’s findings, no matter how small, as it may spark interest in bigger research projects and increases our evidence base #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @OTontheTracks: |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @D_MARSDEN_OT: |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @SadieBlueOT: |
| Jessica Jackson @xJessicaKate18x @Amie_OT @OTontheTracks @OT_Explorer @SensationalOT @mrkwhtmnOT Definitely! Clear, concise but not dumbed down #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ #OTalk https://t.co/9sQz1faoGD |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @mrkwhtmnOT Can OT’s be more friendly towards one another? #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @ot_colchester @Amie_OT @FranSmartOT @OTJme @BillWongOT #OTalk https://t.co/i5Gq24qPZD |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT @chungsongyau @OT_Explorer @xJessicaKate18x @OTontheTracks @SensationalOT @mrkwhtmnOT If we don't claim the word occupation as any piece of doing, how is anybody going to understand the term occupational therapy #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @mrkwhtmnOT Another would be- if you claim to be an OT student or practitioner, shouldn’t have to dig through 100+ tweets in your profile for it. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @FranSmartOT: |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT @CiaraIrishOT @mrkwhtmnOT That sounds really interesting! #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @mrkwhtmnOT @ot_colchester @Amie_OT @FranSmartOT @OTJme Helene Polatajko did a great job with her TEDx talk. Of course, I had 3 in my second one, too. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @LeaFieldOT @mrkwhtmnOT Not always. Have been a victim of being blocked by some OT’s. #otalk |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT @FranSmartOT @OTJme @BillWongOT @theRCOT @Miffy_UK That's a great age group, my partners nephew is 7 and loves that I help people 'do what they want to with their lives' #OTalk |
| Jamie Cardell @OTJme Last term we went to schools to promote #Occupationaltherapy. Giving concise and simple information gets them asking more questions. #otalk https://t.co/ZYyQSA7Dun |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @oscar_tangoXVII @mrkwhtmnOT But it’s fine to put OTS or OTAS in the states... if you are a student. #otalk |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT @OTontheTracks @theRCOT Yes, although that can be really hard on twitter. I also prefer using Student Occupational Therapist rather than an OT Student #OTalk |
| Sophie Maynard @SophieMaynard8 @FranSmartOT @BethjmOT It does get a bit addictive! #OTalk |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT @FranSmartOT It was something he said when I tried to explain, it was his understanding and actually it's something I really like #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @LeaFieldOT @mrkwhtmnOT Yes- that’s why I hope academics can drill over and over that it is not wise to burn bridges no matter the context. #otalk |
| Jessica Jackson @xJessicaKate18x @Amie_OT @FranSmartOT I always think interactive with kids e.g. 'What would you do if you couldn't hold your fork?' Start simple and help them be OTs #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @OccupationalFox @mrkwhtmnOT I think OT’s should know that if they put any info that they are OT’s online, they should expect interactions. #otalk |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT @xJessicaKate18x @FranSmartOT That's a great way to interact with children, think I may have to use this in the future! #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @OccupationalFox @mrkwhtmnOT And not to name names here, but someone savvy like me can know that you are on LinkedIn and/or Facebook, too. #otalk |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT @OTontheTracks @theRCOT True, but I do make an effort not to use the full title rather than OT #OTalk |
| Jessica Jackson @xJessicaKate18x @Amie_OT @FranSmartOT You can them give them a sense of achievement- positive reenforcement 😊 #otalk |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT @DebbiiHarrison Too true! #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @chungsongyau @LeaFieldOT @mrkwhtmnOT Or they don’t do their homework enough that I am a social media whiz behind my professional initials! #otalk |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT @mrkwhtmnOT Keep talking about OT, start small, talk to colleagues, friends, family. Spread the word and hopefully it will catch on #OTalk |
| Sophie Maynard @SophieMaynard8 @mrkwhtmnOT “Hello my name is... and I am an Occupational Therapist (student)” gives the chance for someone to say, ‘what is that?!’ #OTalk |
| Jamie Cardell @OTJme When explaining our profession to others rather than saying #OT actually remembering to say #Occupationaltherapy #otalk https://t.co/UXfMVary98 |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT Hard to do though with US system with it is designed sometimes. #otalk https://t.co/qQVl20gXO4 |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @SensationalOT: |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT @OT_Explorer @mrkwhtmnOT @JanetPaske Hopefully the apprenticeship proposal will in some ways encourage later career OTs to join the profession #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SensationalOT @mrkwhtmnOT If we know they will be on TEDx talks, be there to support them. Maybe that’s one small way! #otalk |
| Jessica Jackson @xJessicaKate18x @mrkwhtmnOT Continue the ethos and momentum of OT week- collect patient stories, evidence based practice, communication #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @Amie_OT: @OT_Explorer @mrkwhtmnOT @JanetPaske Hopefully the apprenticeship proposal will in some ways encourage later career OTs to join the profession #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @BethjmOT: |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @BethjmOT @mrkwhtmnOT And speaking of research, we should open more opportunities! #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ #OTalk only 5 minutes of the official hour to go! Do keep chatting and we will add the transcript after 24hrs. https://t.co/qh3b4ddI93 |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT @xJessicaKate18x @mrkwhtmnOT Patient stories will help reach to those outside of the profession and give them perspective on the profession #OTalk |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT @OTontheTracks @theRCOT Too true! #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 |
 | Kelly S (She/Her) @KellyOT RT @OTontheTracks: |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @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 |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT @ot_cathy @OTontheTracks @theRCOT Until occupation becomes associated with 'doing' rather than 'work' it will be hard to describe the profession #OTalk |
| 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 |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Helen_OTUK @BethjmOT @LeaFieldOT @mrkwhtmnOT I am good... just answering the question. 🤓 #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Thank you @mrkwhtmnOT we love the #OTalk community! https://t.co/Q2Fz5oG9x1 |
| 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 |
| #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💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT Thank you @mrkwhtmnOT for an interesting and engaging #OTalk tonight! |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @Amie_OT: @ot_cathy @OTontheTracks @theRCOT Until occupation becomes associated with 'doing' rather than 'work' it will be hard to describe the profession #OTalk |
| Amie Jayne💚(she/her)🏳️🌈 @Amie_OT @chungsongyau @DebbiiHarrison Exactly how I've used the terms previously! I try to fit activity, meaning and occupation into my definition #OTalk |

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @JanetPaske: |
| 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 |
| 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 |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @oscar_tangoXVII @BethjmOT @LeaFieldOT @mrkwhtmnOT It’s a problem across several different contexts. #otalk |
| Sophie Maynard @SophieMaynard8 @mrkwhtmnOT @otalk You did great, the #OTalk fam is so inclusive, you needn’t have worried |
