 | Abi @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ What are the benefits and challenges of working as an OT in a general mental health setting? #OTalk |
 | #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @Abi21643842: @OTalk_ Who's online and ready to begin? #otalk |
 | deb_OT @dmay_ot #otalk I'm here! I'm currently on placement in psychiatric liaison and this is something we've discussed a lot over the weeks! |
 | Carol Percy @DrCarolPercy RT @Abi21643842: @OTalk_ Who's online and ready to begin? #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Usual reminders for tonight's chat to be respectful and keep confidentiality in mind! And always use the #OTalk tag so that we can keep track of everyone's contribution to the discussion! |
 | Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 All ready for tonight’s #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Question 1! Anyone have any insight from their own work/placements/research? #OTalk |
 | Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT Hello peeps! #otalk |
 | Chloe Woodley @ChloeWoodleyOT First OTalk in a long time! Looking forward to talking about generic roles in mental health - I’ve worked in CAMHs for over a year #OTalk |
 | Rebecca Allison @Rebecca72400332 Hi. I work in a fairly generic role so I’m interested in tonight’s topic #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ In US, I know this is an area we are trying to reclaim our place. So that is a challenge. #otalk |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 Evening Bill #otalk |
 | Maria U @Mur5e11 Hi #OTalk I've hung around a few times but time to salute y'all :) |
 | Student Platform OT @SPOTeurope RT @OTalk_: Question 1! Anyone have any insight from their own work/placements/research? #OTalk |
 | Dr Catriona Connell #OneOfUsAllOfUs @DrCConnell RT @OTalk_: #OTalk 13th November 2018 – Maintaining an occupational focus with generic mental health roles https://t.co/7B2pjIsknr |
 | Lucy Howell @howell_lucy Hi all #otalk |
| Maria U @Mur5e11 I am on placement in community mental health... I love it! #OTalk |
| ellenmillar @ellenmillar6 #OTalk hello |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @BillWongOT: @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ In US, I know this is an area we are trying to reclaim our place. So that is a challenge. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @margaretOT360 Excited in the coming days- have an interview coming up. #otalk |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 Ooo very exciting in what area? #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @margaretOT360 Trying to get my foot in the door in academia. Taking it slow with the transition if I do make it. #otalk |
| deb_OT @dmay_ot Huge benefits to patients in terms of enabling absorption in activities, confidence, connections etc. Can be particularly challenging if colleagues don't understand what OT does. #otalk |
| Abi @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ research is a great tool, I found this article interesting https://t.co/k02aj8b94F #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @dmay_ot: Huge benefits to patients in terms of enabling absorption in activities, confidence, connections etc. Can be particularly challenging if colleagues don't understand what OT does. #otalk |
| Chloe Woodley @ChloeWoodleyOT 1) I think the benefits are learning new interventions and therapies. Where I work, I’ve had the opportunity to train as a DBT therapist. The biggest challenge is definitely working hard to remain OT focused #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ I would say- not too much because there aren’t too many job in the market. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Sounds fascinating! Did you find you were able to be occupation-focused in that setting? #OTalk |
 | Lauren @Lauren_OT Benefits - increased skills and knowledge in practices e.g. MHA, MSE, safety planning, meds, ability use unique skills as well to improve outcomes for patients and move away from the medical model, career progression usually a bit better if want to stay in clinical roles #OTalk |

| Lucy Howell @howell_lucy @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ #otalk Challanges - medical model and heavy psychological focus when I joined, role can be a jack of all trades, space to provide therapy. benefits able to offer clients a different opportunity to manage mental health, and co working with psychology producing positive results |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @margaretOT360 Good news is I can teach in any type of OT program in the US if I get a job like this. #otalk |
| Maria U @Mur5e11 My placement doesn't officially use them but i use moho framework. Good for explaining to team...#OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @Lauren_OT: Benefits - increased skills and knowledge in practices e.g. MHA, MSE, safety planning, meds, ability use unique skills as well to improve outcomes for patients and move away from the medical model, career progression usually a bit better if want to stay in clinical roles #OTalk |

| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 I think MOHO or MOCA are the most frequently used models of practice #otalk |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 Hi RACHEL #otalk |
| Chloe Woodley @ChloeWoodleyOT I also think another benefit is OT focused inventions for the client group. I’m the first OT to work in my team for a long time, therefore it gives the team more scope for treatment options #OTalk |
| Lauren @Lauren_OT Challenges -doesn’t help the already clear lack of understanding of role of OT amongst others, only one or minority in team, difficult to maintain professional identity and access profession specific training, difficult to use unique skills due to pressures of generic work #OTalk |
| Rebecca Allison @Rebecca72400332 @OTalk_ Sometimes it can be easy to drift away from a focus on occupation or values, especially when colleagues might address situations from a slightly different angle. But we all have a lot to learn from each other. #otalk |

 | Lucy gordon @Lucygordon83 @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ I work in an older adult mental health community team. Positives - I work with a fantastic MDT and this role enables me to focus on mental health but also physical health (due to frailty) I am gaining knowledge around medication & social care too which is fab! 💚 #OTalk |
 | Suzanne Rastrick @SuzanneRastrick Hi #OTalk just lurking, to pick up thoughts & ideas from the chat tonight. |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Lauren_OT For sure- this is a challenge that many US MH OT’s are facing too. #otalk |
 | Deborah Harrison 💙💚 @DebbiiHarrison Good evening #OTalk, sorry to be a little late tonight. I’m interested to see how the discussion goes, it’s a topic close to my heart 💚 |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 I think it helps to focus on client goals #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @Lucygordon83: @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ I work in an older adult mental health community team. Positives - I work with a fantastic MDT and this role enables me to focus on mental health but also physical health (due to frailty) I am gaining knowledge around medication & social care too which is fab! 💚 #OTalk |
| Lucy gordon @Lucygordon83 @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ Hey 🤸🏼♀️ #OTalk |

| Lucy Howell @howell_lucy @Mur5e11 #otalk good of keeping the ot focus in formulations of the client's in an MDT |
| Abi @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ The debate of specific or generic roles is always an interesting one. I do worry that being in generic roles can dilute OT input https://t.co/KChKCsM3FR #OTalk |

| Rachel OT @_rachelOT @OTalk_ As a student applying for my first role this #otalk is well timed! I would love to work in MH but there are few OT roles in my area. I shadowed a team who had generic roles, but 3 OT’s in a small team, so even within generic work they were able to maintain focused on occupation. |
| Lucy gordon @Lucygordon83 My OT team in mental health needs have devised their own holistic OT assessment based around MOHO. There is also a referral criteria and list of interventions we provide to help the MDT understand our role 💚✨ #OTalk |
 | Kelly M @OTontheTracks RT @OTalk_: Grab yourself a free ticket and be sure to stop by and see some of the #OTalk crew on Stand J66 at this months @TheOTShow! #OTalkonTour https://t.co/6mOOQxnAQY |
| Kelly M @OTontheTracks RT @OTalk_: You will also spot our @OT_rach, @Helen_OTUK & @Kirstie_OT on @MangarInt top 10 influential OTs on Twitter! #OTalk |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 #otalk need to keep asking is it #OccupationalTherapy even if it’s not in a job title |
| Abi @Abi21643842 I know what you mean, come across it daily. I think educating people about what we do is key to the development of OT as a profession #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @Lucygordon83: My OT team in mental health needs have devised their own holistic OT assessment based around MOHO. There is also a referral criteria and list of interventions we provide to help the MDT understand our role 💚✨ #OTalk |

| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 I think the OT process gives a great structure to our role #otalk |
| deb_OT @dmay_ot #otalk I think you need to have a very strong sense of your OT identity and be prepared to refer on to more suitable agencies if what a client needs isn't OT. |
| Lucy Howell @howell_lucy #otalk yes, also with working age, many physical issues not taken in to account- OT in MH has a real benefit to look at the whole person as you look at the barrriers from the client's perspective. |
| Rachel OT @_rachelOT @OTalk_ Although shadowing another practitioner who openly didn’t want to be an OT provided a very different perspective - I suppose a lot depends on service remit, but I wonder how much depends on how motivated/interested you are in keeping an OT spin on your work? #otalk |
| Chloe Woodley @ChloeWoodleyOT @RRule_OT @OTalk_ Don’t let a generic job title put you off applying for a job! I had these worries before applying to work in CAMHs, but during interview was able to ask about how the team would support me to remain OT focused. We have peer support groups which is really helpful #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Abi21643842 A TEDx talk on this kind of topic is badly needed. Maybe an OT can be bold enough to take a license. 🤓 #otalk |
| Dr Catriona Connell #OneOfUsAllOfUs @DrCConnell Consistent theme for many years - that there isn't space for occupational therapy. But as the only occupational therapists - if we are not delivering it, service users miss out #otalk |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 Demonstrating difference and change in clients with #occupationaltherapy is crucial #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT #otalk |
| deb_OT @dmay_ot #Otalk - At the moment I'm spending a lot of time on fb commenting on people's posts proclaiming #socialprescribing as this fabulous new thing. It's not new. It's OT!!! That's why we have prescribed running, walking groups, craft activities, social meals... |
| Lauren @Lauren_OT I think a generic role or a split role which has key generic components is difficult for preceptee’s to establish themselves in #OTalk |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 This really is our USP #otalk and we need to shout about it! |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @POPPED_Project: Consistent theme for many years - that there isn't space for occupational therapy. But as the only occupational therapists - if we are not delivering it, service users miss out #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @ChloeWoodleyOT: @RRule_OT @OTalk_ Don’t let a generic job title put you off applying for a job!

| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 Lots to unpack there... #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @Lauren_OT: I think a generic role or a split role which has key generic components is difficult for preceptee’s to establish themselves in #OTalk |
| Chloe Woodley @ChloeWoodleyOT @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ I also find this. In my team, we tend to have 2 clinicians working with each patient to enable the therapy and risk management to work side by side. It doesn’t always go to plan, but is very helpful #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @margaretOT360: This really is our USP #otalk and we need to shout about it! |
| Lucy Howell @howell_lucy #OTalk agreed, just got off the phone tonight after chasing referrals from other professions that should have been done by other professions, rather than focus on the Occuaptional needs of the client |
| Abi @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ 2. What mental health specific skills are necessary in this type of role? #OTalk |
| Dr Catriona Connell #OneOfUsAllOfUs @DrCConnell @dmay_ot Is it occupational therapy though? or directions to engage in a meaningful activity? #otalk |
| Rachel OT @_rachelOT @ChloeWoodleyOT @OTalk_ This is great! I have been a bit concerned about not promoting the profession, but feel that as long as I can remain person centred & enable people/ work creatively I would be happy. Do you feel that is possible in your role? These are the reasons I wanted to train in OT. #otalk |
| Lucy Howell @howell_lucy RT @margaretOT360: This really is our USP #otalk and we need to shout about it! |
| Lucy gordon @Lucygordon83 @howell_lucy I love working with social workers in our team and explaining how an environment may be impacting on our patients! 💚 #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @ChloeWoodleyOT: @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ I also find this. In my team, we tend to have 2 clinicians working with each patient to enable the therapy and risk management to work side by side. It doesn’t always go to plan, but is very helpful #OTalk |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 I am the same on Twitter #otalk we need to get established in #GP surgeries |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @dmay_ot: #Otalk - At the moment I'm spending a lot of time on fb commenting on people's posts proclaiming #socialprescribing as this fabulous new thing. It's not new. It's OT!!! That's why we have prescribed running, walking groups, craft activities, social meals... |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @RRule_OT @ChloeWoodleyOT @OTalk_ I think we can promote the profession... but we just got to have a strategy, whether it is at our work, or just to the public in general. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ Motivational interviewing is probably one. #otalk |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 I would say it’s back to our core skills of activity and task analysis #otalk |
| deb_OT @dmay_ot @POPPED_Project Good question. Definitely seen therapeutic benefits from people who have done, become and belonged to a community, watching their confidence increase, their motivation rise, and engagement in living emerge. Fabulous to see! #otalk |
| Deborah Harrison 💙💚 @DebbiiHarrison @margaretOT360 I was thinking that too Margaret. Although occupational therapists can have a broad role in MH; I’m wondering how you can be registered as an OT with the HCPC if your job role has few or no occupational elements. #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @POPPED_Project: Consistent theme for many years - that there isn't space for occupational therapy. But as the only occupational therapists - if we are not delivering it, service users miss out #otalk |
| Lauren @Lauren_OT Same guys! I sent a request to my local GP’s to go and talk about how OT could support this but they said they aren’t in a position to employ any more staff... #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @DebbiiHarrison: @margaretOT360 I was thinking that too Margaret. Although occupational therapists can have a broad role in MH; I’m wondering how you can be registered as an OT with the HCPC if your job role has few or no occupational elements. #OTalk |

| Chloe Woodley @ChloeWoodleyOT @RRule_OT @OTalk_ Absolutely! I think as long as you’re passionate about the profession, you’ll be able to promote it and remain OT focused. Even just within our team meetings, I’ll have a different viewpoint on things compared to MH nurses! #OTalk |
| Lucy Howell @howell_lucy @Lucygordon83 #otalk sometimes reframing a referral from the client's perception of barriers allows others to understand why the occupation is so important for them - today a social worker previously told client unable to help find supportive accommodation- has now changed clinically reasoning |
| Maria U @Mur5e11 Maybe handling expectations and progress not being always upwards...#OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ The need to promote ourselves and our profession, and how we should go about it, has come up as one of the major challenges in response to our first question! Is this something we're good at? #OTalk |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 It would be #occupationaltherapy if one was employed to deliver it #otalk |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 RT @DebbiiHarrison: @margaretOT360 I was thinking that too Margaret. Although occupational therapists can have a broad role in MH; I’m wondering how you can be registered as an OT with the HCPC if your job role has few or no occupational elements. #OTalk |
| Dr Catriona Connell #OneOfUsAllOfUs @DrCConnell @dmay_ot From my understanding of social prescribing, it is the people who CANT make use of it that need occupational therapy. personalised, adapted, graded and occupation used to address a particular identified need? devils advocate #otalk |
| Lucy Howell @howell_lucy @ciderwithsophie #otalk hi Sophie - lol - because I work in community mental health - need I say more- and I care (although it's not always seen) |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Question 2! A few specific skills have already come up in tonight's chat (e.g. DBT) - what other mental health skillsets are people using in their generic roles? #OTalk |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 I am trying to create placements in GP surgeries but they are very reluctant #otalk |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 RT @ChloeWoodleyOT: @RRule_OT @OTalk_ Absolutely! I think as long as you’re passionate about the profession, you’ll be able to promote it and remain OT focused. Even just within our team meetings, I’ll have a different viewpoint on things compared to MH nurses! #OTalk |

| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @BillWongOT: @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ Motivational interviewing is probably one. #otalk |
| Abi @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ I think that maybe we are modest people and find that side difficult. But RCOT has some great posters and other resources to promote OT, it's now on my to do list to print some! 😊#OTalk |
| Dr Catriona Connell #OneOfUsAllOfUs @DrCConnell @margaretOT360 Not necessarily. there are occupational therapists not doing occupational therapy. It would be occ therapy if it was informed by assessment and formulation, and the occupation is adapted, graded and used to produce a desired lasting change.#otalk devils advocate |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 Look, very few people know what 100’s job are. Just articulate what you have done to everyone and anyone who will listen. #otalk we will get there |
| Abi @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ What mental health specific skills are necessary in this type of role? #OTalk |
| Rebecca Allison @Rebecca72400332 @OTalk_ I did some training on motivational interviewing which was useful. Also have previously completed some counselling training, CBT and introduction to ACT #otalk |
| Chloe Woodley @ChloeWoodleyOT 2) Risk assessment and safety management is fundamental in my role, and these are skills I have learnt through working in the role #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ "Which outcome measures are useful in these roles?" could be a question in itself - hopefully tonight's chat will give you some ideas #OTalk |
| Lucy gordon @Lucygordon83 @ChloeWoodleyOT I often explain to the MDT I work in OT terminology such as: graded activity and activity analysis. I also like to talk through my assessments with my colleagues so they can understand the breadth of what we assess and so they can understand the #ValueofOT 💚 #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @Rebecca72400332: @OTalk_ I did some training on motivational interviewing which was useful. Also have previously completed some counselling training, CBT and introduction to ACT #otalk |
 | OliviaMartins @OliviaM77015864 CBT - mainly for anxiety. #OTalk |
| Dr Catriona Connell #OneOfUsAllOfUs @DrCConnell @dmay_ot I love people making me think too - it makes for good critical appraisal skills... always learning. always in good natured curiosity #otalk |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 100% those who go ballroom dancing probably don’t need and #OT as much as someone isolated, and cannot get out #otalk |
| Dr Catriona Connell #OneOfUsAllOfUs @DrCConnell I wasn't going to @OTalk_ tonight - but i seem to be here! #otalk |

| Chloe Woodley @ChloeWoodleyOT @Lucygordon83 That’s such a brilliant way to educate the team about our role! I really should use the OT terminology more often when talking about patients #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Lauren_OT I think we need some OT’s to make it into @TEDMED! I will sure try to advocate for some of our best minds to get invited to this... because I think it is a frontier that we should be part of. #otalk |

| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 Too modest! We need to shout from the rooftops or someone else will #otalk take our role like coaches etc |
| Abi @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ We use the recovery star with the star as the outcome, this tool is very holistic and OT. But qualitative and lacking reliability depending on day to day changes #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @OTalk_ I will be honest- the answer is not really. I know one person can only do so much... but that’s why we need to pool together our strengths and abilities to improve on this status quo. #otalk |
| Gemma P @gemOT18 @ChloeWoodleyOT @Lucygordon83 I agree talking to your team is key- presentations, case studies, joint working to explain your OT focus #OTalk |

| Lucy gordon @Lucygordon83 @ChloeWoodleyOT It makes me so proud when I am educating the team about our terminology and models.. We don’t shout enough about all our occupational science, models, frames of reference etc which make us so unique and special! 💚✨ #OTalk |
| Dr Catriona Connell #OneOfUsAllOfUs @DrCConnell @Rebecca72400332 @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ .@motionreseach @joanne_inman @MaryBirken might be able to share some examples of outcome measures in CMHT #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @gemOT18 Better late than never! #OTalk https://t.co/0RGaugURAl |
| Dr Catriona Connell #OneOfUsAllOfUs @DrCConnell @Rebecca72400332 @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ Have you looked at some of the standardised assessments based on the Model of Human Occupation? they generally all have good clinical utility and psychometric validation studies including CMHT patients #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Lucygordon83 @ChloeWoodleyOT For me, I sure will enjoy the same feeling if I ever get a chance to go to a multidisciplinary conference and present on something OT. #otalk |
 | Suzanne Simpson @SimpsonResearch Completely agree #OTalk |
| OliviaMartins @OliviaM77015864 Explaining our role when we introduce ourselves to new staff; been vocal in MDT meetings; work jointly with other staff and explain our OT perspective of clients; divulging our work in trust journal; get feedback from clients of our intervention and share it in the MDT #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @POPPED_Project: @Rebecca72400332 @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ Have you looked at some of the standardised assessments based on the Model of Human Occupation? they generally all have good clinical utility and psychometric validation studies including CMHT patients #otalk |
| Lucy Howell @howell_lucy @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ #Otalk yes we can be quiet about achievements, but then I think about my own team, the moment there is success, a new client is requiring intervention and your focus goes there- it's the same for all MDT members- dating an amazing job with no space to breathe |

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @howell_lucy @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ At least that’s better than doing the whole 9 yards of organizing one! #otalk |
| Dr Catriona Connell #OneOfUsAllOfUs @DrCConnell @dmay_ot social prescribing seems a little blunt. Need to know WHY the person isn't doing it to make sure therapy makes a lasting change on that thing, rather than sticking plaster of placing in an existing activity. Or prescription runs out and back to square one #otalk #notanexperthere |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ MH4OT should be utilized more... especially for those who need support. #otalk |
| Abi @Abi21643842 @Lucygordon83 That is so great, we are advised to use COPM but I find it difficult for clients who lack insight around their needs #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ 15 minutes left in tonight's #OTalk, here's Question 3! We've already started getting into this conversation re: assessments but would also be great to hear about other kinds of tools and resources 😁 |

| Lucy gordon @Lucygordon83 @Rebecca72400332 @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ We are currently exploring outcome measures within in our team - GAS outcome measure. It can be hard to measure! I often set goals with my patients and if they’ve achieved their goal then for me that is an outcome measure 💚✨ #OTalk |
| Dr Catriona Connell #OneOfUsAllOfUs @DrCConnell @gemOT18 @Rebecca72400332 @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ I love VQ, but haven't used in community setting before - does it work well? #otalk |
| Rachel OT @_rachelOT @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ Is is common for OTs working in generic roles to have supervision from other OTs? Or peer led groups with other OTs working in generic roles? #otalk |
| Suzanne Simpson @SimpsonResearch @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ I think connecting with our communities is a huge resource I’m loving my new role and really getting to know what’s out there. Then when you ask an individual about those occupations that maintain/once maintained/might help their wellbeing then you have the resources #OTalk |

| Gemma P @gemOT18 @POPPED_Project @Rebecca72400332 @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ Haven’t used it yet but colleagues in hospital found it successful. I’m thinking of using it with a particular client that can struggle with motivation- will let u know! #OTalk |

| Lucy Howell @howell_lucy @gemOT18 @POPPED_Project @Rebecca72400332 @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ #otalk I find it difficult to set an observation for a VQ in a community setting , still working on it. OSA short form is great to focus a client who doesn't know what support they need and keeps my OT focus. OCAIRS good for an initial info gathering |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @Abi21643842: @OTalk_ We use the recovery star with the star as the outcome, this tool is very holistic and OT. But qualitative and lacking reliability depending on day to day changes #OTalk |

| deb_OT @dmay_ot @POPPED_Project I think there are few people for whom generic social prescribing would work without the support of somebody who could provide assessment, analysis, grading - in fact all the things an OT would do!!! #otalk |
| Dr Heather Baglee @HeatherBaglee @SimpsonResearch @POPPED_Project @dmay_ot It helped me feel less possessive over activity/occupation because I definitely did! 🙂 #OTalk |
| Chloe Woodley @ChloeWoodleyOT 3) Goal setting is a vital skill to use with my patients, and breaking these goals down to smaller goals and using a graded approach to achieve these goals #OTalk |

| Lucy gordon @Lucygordon83 @margaretOT360 I have supervision with a mental health nurse and an OT which helps me remain OT focused but also gives me an insight into my colleagues role (broadens my understanding of how medications may be impacting on my patients occupations) #OTalk |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 It’s just activity analysis measurements #otalk |
| Gemma P @gemOT18 @POPPED_Project @RRule_OT @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ In a previous generic role I had 1:1 supervision from a nurse then peer supervision with other OTs which I found so valuable... as well as a different perspective from a nurse #OTalk |
| Lucy Howell @howell_lucy I've seen both - some with specific OT supervision and some generic, I feel it may be difficult for a new graduate to keep OT identify and focus if not supported clinically by a senior experienced OT. Equally, experienced OTs can be confident in their skills to keep focus #otalk |
| Abi @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ Youtube, Podcasts and NHS Athens are a great resource. Shadowing other services and OTs in the setting is vital #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @dmay_ot @POPPED_Project There is a 4OT group on this recently. #otalk |
| Dr Catriona Connell #OneOfUsAllOfUs @DrCConnell @dmay_ot So it sounds like social prescribing is something different to occupational therapy?An occupational therapist could do social prescribing, but social prescribers couldn't do occupational therapy. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @ChloeWoodleyOT: 3) Goal setting is a vital skill to use with my patients, and breaking these goals down to smaller goals and using a graded approach to achieve these goals #OTalk |
| Dr Catriona Connell #OneOfUsAllOfUs @DrCConnell @gemOT18 @howell_lucy @Rebecca72400332 @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ Fab idea - test out, make sure you are using an assessment that assesses what you want it to, and to re-measure the outcome #otalk |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 I have really valued solution focused training, I funded it myself and applied and got awarded long life learning grant from #RCOT #otalk as additional funding source |

| Suzanne Simpson @SimpsonResearch @HeatherBaglee @POPPED_Project @dmay_ot I must admit that’s how I felt - ‘watered down OT’ But now I’ve read more and heard about the work going on at Salford @SalfordSPx I’ve really started to think differently. I’m seeing it as an opportunity for OTs to lead the way, to make it successful! #OTalk |
| Chloe Woodley @ChloeWoodleyOT 4) DBT foundation training - part of our service is the DBT service for adolescents and young adults to age 25. The therapy reminds me of OT in many ways such as goal setting, achieving a better quality of life whilst managing risk #OTalk |
| Dr Catriona Connell #OneOfUsAllOfUs @DrCConnell @HeatherBaglee @dmay_ot @UoSOccTherapy Brilliant idea - where can i learn more about this? #otalk |
| Lucy Howell @howell_lucy #Otalk better understanding of trauma and how it presents and how using sensory modulation can support a client ground themselves emotionally and then work the cognitive approach. Understanding different psychological approaches has lead to better referrals and treatment |

| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 Fab exploration of our unique dual trained role in MH #otalk this evening |
| Lucy gordon @Lucygordon83 @ChloeWoodleyOT Ohh I am interested in this! And may explore this further thank you 💚✨ #OTalk |
| Chloe Woodley @ChloeWoodleyOT @Lucygordon83 @OTalk_ I agree, the trust I work in offers band 5 OT peer support groups, as well as a specific CAMHs OT forum where all the OTs within the different CAMHs services meet to formulate cases and put an OT approach to our work #OTalk |
| Dr Catriona Connell #OneOfUsAllOfUs @DrCConnell @SimpsonResearch @HeatherBaglee @dmay_ot @SalfordSPx Guess it would be about differentiating when/if effectiveness increases (or decreases) if social prescribing starts to morph into occupational therapy and that this is not lost as social prescribing #otalk |
| Rachel OT @_rachelOT @gemOT18 @POPPED_Project @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ Thank you! It’s good to hear different experiences. In the role that I am considering I would be the only person employed in the charity who had trained as an OT, so I suppose I would need to seek supervision or peer support externally #OTalk |
| Lucy gordon @Lucygordon83 @margaretOT360 I really want to do this! As my line manager has talked about solution focused therapy. Thank you.. I will explore this further 💚✨ #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Next week (20th November) - "Hints & Tips for Tweeting at events, training & conferences" 😄 #OTalk |
| Dr Heather Baglee @HeatherBaglee @POPPED_Project @OTalk_ Just finished a Prof Doc - developed leadership training for OT students from a feminist perspective - still recovering... 😀 #otalk |
| Chloe Woodley @ChloeWoodleyOT @Lucygordon83 I’m more than happy to talk to you about it! It’s a therapy originally created for patients with borderline personality disorder, however can be used for patients who experience mood instability, self harm/suicidal thoughts or interpersonal difficulties #OTalk |
 | Claire Murphy @DrClaireMurphy @Lucygordon83 @Rebecca72400332 @Abi21643842 @OTalk_ Also recommend MOHO assessments and GAS to measure outcomes in mental health. We’ve recently published a paper on using GAS in mental health if you’re interested https://t.co/s7jxLrSfuW #Otalk |
