 | Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT Hello gang! #otalk https://t.co/BkoIJmsEPF |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Who's joining us tonight, and what's your answer to question 1? 😁 #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SusanGriffiths5 @OTalk_ If we have stroke patients, sometimes we will use constrain induced therapy. Sometimes we also will play music with dementia patients when they are in the therapy room. #otalk |

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT I guess this is the second to last #otalk of 2019, right? |
 | JasminOT ⓥ @JasminLaffy @OTalk_ Ready and excited for this #OTalk 👋 |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SusanGriffiths5 me will be transitioning to lunch mode as always! Last week I didn't join because I was in post-interview mode and I didn't want to think about OT until the next day. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SusanGriffiths5 @OTalk_ in my setting, I think we might have confounders, such as dementia or some combination of psych diagnoses. So, the evidence might not always apply here. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @BillWongOT It is indeed! Not too far from Christmas now 😁 #OTalk (really wanted to illustrate this post with a Christmas OT joke I saw last year of an Elf on the Shelf titled "Therapeutic Use of Elf" but I can't find it 😔) |

 | Becca Shelton @BeccaSheltonOT @SusanGriffiths5 @OTalk_ Resistance in therapy teams to a change in practice #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SusanGriffiths5 @OTalk_ In my setting, that will be no ability to build consistent rapport with patients. Having needed to travel to different nursing homes with little notice + not seeing these patients consistently on a daily basis makes it difficult for me to try. #otalk |

| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @OTinretirement: |
| JasminOT ⓥ @JasminLaffy @SusanGriffiths5 @LyndsayCourtOT @OTalk_ Journal clubs are good for this. Setting time aside in the day to look at new research as well. #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @LyndsayCourtOT: |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @MeganTheOT @SusanGriffiths5 @OTalk_ and same goes in my setting too. Some places have awesome patients. Some places have patients with low motivation. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @JasminLaffy: @SusanGriffiths5 @LyndsayCourtOT @OTalk_ Journal clubs are good for this. Setting time aside in the day to look at new research as well. #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @sherlynmelody: |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @sherlynmelody @SusanGriffiths5 @OTalk_ @CeeCeeOT yes- in the USA, productivity is king in many settings. And then as therapists, we also are responsible to do weekly and monthly reports, too! #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @sherlynmelody @SusanGriffiths5 @OTalk_ @CeeCeeOT but now I will switch to assistants for a bit in the USA... for them, I think it's two fold. One is the way their curriculums are designed when they are in school. The other is lack of a clear pathway on how to get involved in research. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @OTinretirement: |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @cathymc9781: |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Laura_Does @SusanGriffiths5 @LyndsayCourtOT @OTalk_ in some places in my setting, that is actually unrealistic. you deal with staff that come and go at different times of day. Plus, it is hard to organize a common time for everyone to be there at the same time! #otalk |
| JasminOT ⓥ @JasminLaffy @CeeCeeOT @sherlynmelody @SusanGriffiths5 @OTalk_ @ParkinsonsUK @MDUK_News Clinical guidelines are a very good source as well. All the research has been summarised for you and they are kept quite up to date. (At least in Aus anyway) #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Laura_Does @SusanGriffiths5 @LyndsayCourtOT @OTalk_ I feel that in some places in my setting... getting the job done in terms of getting the patients seen for the day trumps EBP. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ An interesting thought regarding entry-level doctorates in the US as a way to strengthen the evidence base #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @SusanGriffiths5: |

| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @SusanGriffiths5: |
| JasminOT ⓥ @JasminLaffy @BillWongOT @Laura_Does @SusanGriffiths5 @LyndsayCourtOT @OTalk_ Maybe an online journal club could be a fix to this? They could have more reach as well. #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @OTinretirement @SusanGriffiths5 @OTalk_ I think our qualified assistants (like in USA and Canada) should incorporate research into their curriculum... and for those that does already, these courses need to have a stronger presence! #otalk |
 | Rob Ellis @NHSOTRob @SusanGriffiths5 @LyndsayCourtOT @OTalk_ Perhaps increased use of evidence based outcome measures will in turn increase the value of OT in various workplaces? #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Laura_Does @SusanGriffiths5 @LyndsayCourtOT @OTalk_ not easy to do... some people have a full time and then a part time! #otalk |
| Becca Shelton @BeccaSheltonOT @SusanGriffiths5 @OTalk_ Mixture of peoples understanding, willingness to think in a different way and the culture in work places #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @JasminLaffy @Laura_Does @SusanGriffiths5 @LyndsayCourtOT @OTalk_ in my full time job, changing the company culture is not an easy thing to do. #otalk |
| JasminOT ⓥ @JasminLaffy @Laura_Does @BillWongOT @SusanGriffiths5 @LyndsayCourtOT @OTalk_ Here is a link to one I’ve been meaning to check out! #OTalk https://t.co/MKqNvKPcTR |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @MeganTheOT: |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @SusanGriffiths5: |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @MeganTheOT @SusanGriffiths5 @OTinretirement @OTalk_ I think we are in an age where we should have an easier time to explore some outside the box collaborations. Maybe we should connect with researchers with similar goals from other countries? #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @DrCConnell: |
| JasminOT ⓥ @JasminLaffy @SallyDrakeAHP @BillWongOT @Laura_Does @SusanGriffiths5 @LyndsayCourtOT @OTalk_ Do you have any that you would recommend? #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @jamiecardell @SusanGriffiths5 @OTalk_ and then there are some people who want to change practice, but they have other barriers (e.g. time, family, cost to go for a PhD program, etc.) #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @LyndsayCourtOT: |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Laura_Does @SusanGriffiths5 @LyndsayCourtOT @OTalk_ in the USA, we also include rehab aides in this discussion... since they are not qualified or have not studied in a formal program yet. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Key question for the night, I think! #OTalk |
| Rob Ellis @NHSOTRob RT @DrCConnell: |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @DrCConnell: |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @TherapyUos: |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SusanGriffiths5 @BeccaSheltonOT @OTalk_ I think first it has to start from the top. If management doesn't provide incentives for clinicians to be involved in research, it is hard for clinicians to get involved. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SusanGriffiths5 @BeccaSheltonOT @OTalk_ another one- maybe we need to have greater incentives for our graduates to get involved in research. This includes making it a sustainable career path! #otalk |
| JasminOT ⓥ @JasminLaffy @SusanGriffiths5 @OTalk_ I think the range of evidence allows us to use evidence based interventions a large portion of the time. Even if we have to think outside the box to deliver it or it is just our therapeutic use of self. #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @MeganTheOT @SusanGriffiths5 @OTinretirement @OTalk_ The thing is- how intentional are we willing to meet with potential research partners that are international so that such discussions can take place? Are we willing to invest in our CPD so that we can set such opportunities up? #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @SusanGriffiths5: |

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @ais_d @SusanGriffiths5 @BeccaSheltonOT @OTalk_ absolutely! For my setting in fall prevention, that actually can be a factor in certain places! #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @Laura_Does: |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @SusanGriffiths5: |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SusanGriffiths5 @jamiecardell @OTalk_ and there is also an increasing importance in identifying OT's who can play multiple roles in research teams... as in a bridge to help understanding service user perspectives better! #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @OTinretirement: |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @SomiaOT: |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SusanGriffiths5 @OTalk_ definitely not! EBP interventions is not a one-size-fit-all hat. We have to adjust based on patients' needs and the feasibility in implementing such interventions. #otalk |

| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @SusanGriffiths5: |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SusanGriffiths5 @OTinretirement @MeganTheOT @OTalk_ I think clinicians and academics need to build better relationships with one another. Clinicians can do their jobs and provide feedback on research directions. Academics will come up with the appropriate designs and continue to tinker before executing the research. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @DrCConnell: |
 | Barbara Ann Smith @Babsyslapsy @SusanGriffiths5 @OTalk_ Lack of evidence on the benefits of OT on acute respiratory wards.evidence I found about ADL,s were written by Physio or Nurses. #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SusanGriffiths5 @OTalk_ My favorite response will be this when we have quality studies are coming out! #otalk https://t.co/qU2NHrTOGn |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SusanGriffiths5 @OTalk_ I also think placement educators need to do a better job in fostering their students' enthusiasm to contribute to research! You don't want them to leave your place feeling defeated! #otalk |

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @DrCConnell @SusanGriffiths5 absolutely! I am actually hoping to set a positive example on how folks with clinical doctorates can engage in research. We need to train our future students with this message, "If you want something done, you got to go set things up. They won't come on silver platters!" #OTALK |

| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @GeorgiaVineOT: |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @DrCConnell @SusanGriffiths5 and sometimes engaging with research doesn't mean taking the lead all the time, you can be a clinical or perspective expert to offer opinions on where the research should go! #otalk |
| Barbara Ann Smith @Babsyslapsy @DrCConnell @OTalk_ I am working in an acute unit where they wanted us to think and work in a social rather than medical model.I found I was torn by what evidence was around to follow.time is limiting factor.#OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @GeorgiaVineOT @SusanGriffiths5 @OTalk_ or you can take a page from my book after you qualify- go on a global OT conference tour to find your ideal matches. With social media and email, it's much easier nowadays! #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @MeganTheOT: |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @uk_james: |
| Barbara Ann Smith @Babsyslapsy @DrCConnell @OTalk_ I feel we as a profession are poor at collating evidence to prove what we do.#OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Laura_Does @uk_james @SusanGriffiths5 @OTalk_ In my case, since I am also a service user, so I try to contribute to autism research as a research team member. #otalk |

| #OTalk @OTalk_ #OTalk 17th Dec 2019 – Why Do Men Become Occupational Therapists? https://t.co/PxDDDrY0KI |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @GeorgiaVineOT @SusanGriffiths5 @OTalk_ absolutely! I literally spent planning at least a year ahead with these things! I remembered when I told many OT's that, they were like, "You are crazy!" #otalk https://t.co/YSpnnIGASP |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @SusanGriffiths5 @LyndsayCourtOT Also (saying this as @colourful_ot rather than speaking for OTalk) I think ABA is an example of needing to consider what we mean by robust evidence - e.g. many ABA papers show strong evidence for reducing stimming but is there evidence that that's good for quality of life? #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @OTinretirement: |
| JasminOT ⓥ @JasminLaffy @SusanGriffiths5 Thank you for the great questions and discussion that followed! Time to go join some Journal clubs #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Thank you for hosting Susan! The chat was incredibly interesting and it was great to end on a positive note re: how we can make practice more evidence-based 😃 #OTalk |

| #OTalk @OTalk_ Next week's chat - final chat of the year! 😮 #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Thanks everyone for joining us tonight, we'll have a transcript up on the website soon #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ In the meantime if you'd like to reflect on tonight's chat (e.g. if it's made you think about being more evidence-based in future and you'd like to record that & show it off to the HCPC) we have reflection forms! #OTalk https://t.co/hEhcGDc7EZ |

| Rob Ellis @NHSOTRob RT @SusanGriffiths5: |
| Barbara Ann Smith @Babsyslapsy @SusanGriffiths5 @OTalk_ Energy conservation and relaxation for respiratory patients, as part of pulmonary rehab which is highly evidenced.#OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @ElliwHughesOT If you google "women in STEM" I think it's actually something that's talked about quite a lot, I think normally it's just phrased in the inverse way ("how can we stop driving women away?") rather than how this #OTalk is approaching it ("how can we can draw more men in?") 😁 |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @ElliwHughesOT My feeling is that ignoring a gender imbalance in any profession is never going to end well! #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @LyndsayCourtOT @SusanGriffiths5 @OTalk_ I mean tooting our horns... lol! #otalk |
