 | Alannah Marie 🌼 @Alannah_OT Q1. #otalk Do you have any experience working with individuals who have experienced domestic violence? If so, what setting? |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @kimala152_kim: @OTalk_ #OTalk Hello |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @GeorgiaVineOT @OTalk_ @Alannah_OT Hello!#otalk https://t.co/d4PymjaPYZ |

 | Carolina C 🏳️🌈 @colourful_ot @OTalk_ @Alannah_OT Hello from London! #OTalk https://t.co/yVJNRvqBdh |
 | Laura @LauraCoffin_OT @OTalk_ @Alannah_OT 👋 #otalk I'm a student from LSBU. Looking forward to tonight's talk! |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Alannah_OT My answer is no. Even if I did, I don't think it would have been listed on my nursing home patients' medical history. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ You need to include the hashtag in ALL YOUR tweets #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @KarenLGie @Alannah_OT Don’t forget the hashtag #otalk |
 | Tori Lehr @VicTORIously40 @OTalk_ Following #otalk 🙋🏼♀️ |
| Trich @Trichlils_OT @Alannah_OT I have met a few who are in a women refuge but unfortunately no OT in setting #otalk |
 | Olivia Pearce @OTOPearce @OTalk_ Oppsy #otalk https://t.co/DTc6osoYyz |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ You need to include that hashtag otherwise people well not see your tweet - it’s soooooo important #otalk https://t.co/9lnF87TT4e |
| Carolina C 🏳️🌈 @colourful_ot @Alannah_OT A1. In the setting I currently work in (forensic mental health) I have worked both with people who are survivors of domestic violence and people who have been perpetrators of domestic violence #OTalk |
 | Rachel OT @_rachelOT @Alannah_OT I work in community mental health and work with both victims and perpetrators of domestic violence #otalk |
| Domestic Abuse OT @kimala152_kim @OTalk_ #otalk I am a 3rd year student and I completed my last placement in a charitable organisation working with men and women who have experienced domestic. |
 | Sadie Blue @SadieBlueOT @Alannah_OT I work with children & young people who have experienced childhood trauma - many witnessing/living with domestic violence. I work non-trad in a children’s charity providing post-abuse services #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Don’t forget that hashtag!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #otalk. It will not be seen and will not go in the transcript without it!!! |
| Susan Griffiths @SusanGriffiths5 @Alannah_OT I have worked with some patients when I was in Mental Heath that have experienced DV. In my current job I occasionally work with children where there are a safeguarding concern due to DV #otalk |

 | Sophie Maynard @SophieMaynard8 @Alannah_OT On an acute stroke ward and in previous mental health placements. I found the way it is dealt with in an acute setting quote troubling #OTalk |
| Georgia Vine @GeorgiaVineOT @SadieBlueOT @Alannah_OT I have no experience but I found @SadieBlueOT’s really interesting #OTalk |
 | OT Nix 💙 @thisisnix @OTalk_ @OT_rach I'm lurking on #OTalk tonight, not just because I feel like I wanna be surrounded by #OTs 💚, but also I am living for all these #Disney gifs putting a smile on my face 😊🙏 |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @thisisnix @OT_rach Glad you enjoying them #otalk https://t.co/qjKu7GUnBF |
 | Ed Sum Occupational Therapist🏳️🌈❤🏴 @musedNeuroOT @OTalk_ @Alannah_OT Ey up! Sorry, bit late as preparing for work tomorrow #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Welcome #otalk |
| Alannah Marie 🌼 @Alannah_OT @SadieBlueOT That sounds like it would be difficult, especially with children. Really incredible sounding role! #OTalk |
| Alannah Marie 🌼 @Alannah_OT Q2. #otalk What do you think are the occupational disruptions of survivors of domestic violence? |
| Mich Maughan @MichMaughan #oTalk I have previously worked in an acute mental health setting and a few patients had experienced domestic abuse |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Question 2 #otalk |
| Carolina C 🏳️🌈 @colourful_ot @BillWongOT @Alannah_OT Looking at the statistics of how common it is I wouldn't be so sure 😔 https://t.co/w0wWYnk6wx I think you're right about it not being included in histories though, whether that's because people don't want to talk about it or don't consider what happened to them to be DV #OTalk |
 | Chris Prager @ccprager @OTalk_ @Alannah_OT Hi all, i'm an OT student at St George's London. Looking forward to being part of my first #OTalk |
| Alannah Marie 🌼 @Alannah_OT @colourful_ot How do you find working with both survivors and perpetrators? #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Alannah_OT One will be social confidence in pursuing romantic relationships. For example, some female domestic abuse patients might have difficulties trusting men after getting abused from their male family members. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Alannah_OT @SadieBlueOT Another one- sometimes kids will be very hesitant to show their teachers that they are being abused. #otalk |
| Susan Griffiths @SusanGriffiths5 @Alannah_OT Depends on the individual but potentially any occupation can be disrupted - in my current post I have seen children who developed sleeping difficulties, eating problems, poor academic performance, poor socialisation, etc #otalk |
| Alannah Marie 🌼 @Alannah_OT @SophieMaynard8 What is your experience with how it is handled? #otalk |
| Mich Maughan @MichMaughan @OTalk_ #oTalk I would say low self esteem and post traumatic trauma play a large part in occupational disruption |
| Sophie Maynard @SophieMaynard8 @Alannah_OT Access to healthcare can be extremely difficult with detrimental effects #OTalk |
| Olivia Pearce @OTOPearce @Alannah_OT #otalk for the service users I had the pleasure of working with, they recognised DV as a trigger for a decline in their mental health so disruptions were vast and varied including relationships, roles, self-care, leisure, productivity to name a few |
| Alannah Marie 🌼 @Alannah_OT RT @colourful_ot: @BillWongOT @Alannah_OT Looking at the statistics of how common it is I wouldn't be so sure 😔 https://t.co/w0wWYnk6wx I… |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @colourful_ot @Alannah_OT or in the nursing home setting... cognition to recognize they are/have been abused is another factor. #otalk |
| Carolina C 🏳️🌈 @colourful_ot @Alannah_OT I think because it's not the main focus of my work I find that it doesn't define how I work with people; however in both cases it means that I'm careful about how I talk about romantic relationships, because I know that it can be a really complicated and triggering subject #OTalk |
| Carolina C 🏳️🌈 @colourful_ot @BillWongOT @Alannah_OT Absolutely, and then that factors into the issue of elder abuse as well #OTalk |
| Rachel OT @_rachelOT @Alannah_OT So many! Environmentally people may be moved to different areas & experience significant social isolation, they may restrict the public places they visit & home occupations may be interrupted due to 'symptoms' of trauma (ie trouble focusing, hypervigilance, disassociation) #otalk |
| Georgia Vine @GeorgiaVineOT @Alannah_OT Confidence to even carry out the occupations? #OTalk |
| Sadie Blue @SadieBlueOT @Alannah_OT DV can impact on all ADLs - a trauma response triggered can impact on any activity. I’ve known children who can’t learn at school because their male teacher standing behind them in the classroom paralyses them with fear. #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @colourful_ot @Alannah_OT Speaking of that, a nursing home got into trouble for this. Nursing assistant was doing IG live showing she and her crew were eating pizza. When a resident asked for one, she denied him and did something like this as 1 of 3 related incidents. She got fired, of course. #otalk https://t.co/Dutz47QvjF |

| Sophie Maynard @SophieMaynard8 @Alannah_OT The general view from staff on the ward when a patient disclosed her husband is physically violent was "attention seeking" & neurological symptoms were dismissed as "functional". Poor documentation meant a delayed process of accessing safeguarding support #OTalk |
| Susan Griffiths @SusanGriffiths5 @VeriOTy__ @Alannah_OT Definitely seen this too #OTalk |
| Alannah Marie 🌼 @Alannah_OT Q3. #otalk What do you think the occupational therapy role can provide for survivors or people who are currently experiencing domestic violence? |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @VeriOTy__ @SusanGriffiths5 @Alannah_OT On the flip side, if anyone watches Deadly Women episodes, some of the women featured was severely abused in childhood. #otalk |
| Sadie Blue @SadieBlueOT @Alannah_OT Isolation from leaving the family home/moving away. Cultural disruption and being disowned from family, friends, neighbours. #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @SadieBlueOT: @Alannah_OT DV can impact on all ADLs - a trauma response triggered can impact on any activity. I’ve known children who ca… |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @_rachelOT: @Alannah_OT So many! Environmentally people may be moved to different areas & experience significant social isolation, they… |
| Olivia Pearce @OTOPearce @Alannah_OT I’m a third year student so seeking advice and support from my practice supervisors at the time was a massive part. I tried to validate and acknowledge their feelings when in 1:1s, challenge anxiety responses gently and as felt appropriate to enable occupation (p1) #otalk |
 | Fisher @fishanarchy @Alannah_OT Tending towards dark occupations? #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Question 3 #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @colourful_ot @Alannah_OT And on top of that incident, she and one other co-worker did a couple things that violate confidentiality rules. So, facility got fined $60K USD... plus an undetermined amount each day until the facility is deemed compliant again. #otalk |
| Susan Griffiths @SusanGriffiths5 @Alannah_OT I don’t provide any support if the child is still living in a household with DV. If child is in a safe place then often the main support I provide is sensory regulation strategies #OTalk |
| Olivia Pearce @OTOPearce @Alannah_OT #otalk (p2) I spoke to safeguarding when I felt uneasy about statements the service user had made, in terms of interventions for occupations I tried to re-engage them with activities they most enjoyed and graded up to the ones with the biggest fear response |
| Sadie Blue @SadieBlueOT @Alannah_OT My current role with young people is more around taking away that blame and shame they feel (maybe if I xyz then this wouldn’t have happened), the child understanding that it’s not their fault and they absolutely did not deserve that #OTalk |
| Georgia Vine @GeorgiaVineOT @Alannah_OT Help them get into leisure activities to improve wellbeing! #OTalk |
| Sadie Blue @SadieBlueOT @Alannah_OT I also do some prevention work with groups of young people in schools on healthy relationships. Reducing the stigma around rape culture and victim blaming #OTalk |
 | Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 Individual work and group work exploring change, confidence self esteem #otalk |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 RT @GeorgiaVineOT: @Alannah_OT Help them get into leisure activities to improve wellbeing! #OTalk |
| Alannah Marie 🌼 @Alannah_OT @SadieBlueOT I think that is such an important message to be conveying and supporting. Taking away that shame and stigma from something that they had no control over is so important. #otalk |
| Alannah Marie 🌼 @Alannah_OT RT @SadieBlueOT: @Alannah_OT My current role with young people is more around taking away that blame and shame they feel (maybe if I xyz th… |
| Fisher @fishanarchy @Alannah_OT Establishing and restoring healthy routines of living possibly in new environments #otalk |
| Carolina C 🏳️🌈 @colourful_ot @BillWongOT @Alannah_OT The scale of institutional abuse that happens is horrifying; even though it's different from domestic violence it comes from the same place of people taking advantage of unequal power dynamics #OTalk |
| Sadie Blue @SadieBlueOT @Alannah_OT I guess in a more trad OT role this could look like empowerment/exploring healing through creative & meaningful activities, supporting new roles and routines, solution focused interventions #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ We are halfway through tonight’s #OTalk https://t.co/ne1wDfvS4b |
| Domestic Abuse OT @kimala152_kim @OTalk_ #otalk i found that when people are deprived from occupation through injustice they have increased symptoms of anxiety, depression and loss of identity. |
| Rachel OT @_rachelOT @Alannah_OT I suppose, as with everything, it's person centred & starts with an assessment to determine where there are gaps in occupational function & to determine some goals. Graded exposure towards peer support groups could also be beneficial for those who feel they would benefit #otalk |

| ℍumphrey Kalule @humphrey_ot @Alannah_OT I believe OT role can help the affected to identify the support systems around them for assistance in times of need & emotional breakdown. #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @colourful_ot @Alannah_OT Or even things that make no sense if you know you are in healthcare field. For example, you don’t go on IG live or Snapchat with images showing key information that will identify patients! #otalk |
| Susan Griffiths @SusanGriffiths5 @Alannah_OT Teaching basic life skills especially for those who has partners that were in control of everything. Some women do not know how to pay bills, budget, etc. #otalk |

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @GeorgiaVineOT @Alannah_OT Or re-learn/rebuild confidence on how to do essential occupations again. #otalk |
| Carolina C 🏳️🌈 @colourful_ot @Alannah_OT I think from an OT perspective it would be important to look personal causation since often someone's self-esteem will have been worn down by abuse and they won't have occupations that they feel like they're good at #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @colourful_ot: @Alannah_OT I think from an OT perspective it would be important to look personal causation since often someone's self-es… |

| Laura @LauraCoffin_OT @OTalk_ As well as supporting skill development and building confidence as OTs we have a responsibility to advocate for services and support for survivors #otalk |
| ℍumphrey Kalule @humphrey_ot @Alannah_OT & also working with the affected to identify causative factors of DV. #otalk |
| Olivia Pearce @OTOPearce @Alannah_OT I think as in all OT roles it’s being a supporter and validator of the service user as well as reengaging or broadening them in occupational performance to improve quality of life #otalk |
| Carolina C 🏳️🌈 @colourful_ot @Alannah_OT (that should say "look at") #OTalk #typo |
| Sadie Blue @SadieBlueOT @colourful_ot @BillWongOT @Alannah_OT Yaaas 🙌 #OTalk |
| Alannah Marie 🌼 @Alannah_OT Q4. #otalk Do you think occupational therapists could do more to explore and implement trauma-informed care for this population? |
 | ☯︎ R͜͡a͜͡c͜͡h͜͡e͜͡l͜͡ ☯︎︎ @RachelOTstudent @Alannah_OT #OTalk from experience it’s usually the fact that you’re constantly on high alert to notice any subtle changes in their tone or behaviour and to ensure you don’t antagonise them in any way. This leaves you constantly exhausted. Survival is your only focus. |
 | Tori OT @Tori_Doll_ @OTalk_ Self esteem, sense of identity, loss of role/employment/friend group/immediate support (if they’ve had to relocate etc) & in some respects the loss of the relationship creates a void/sense of loss until a new positive identity is formed. #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Question 4 #otalk |
| ℍumphrey Kalule @humphrey_ot @Alannah_OT Also identify hw DV is affecting occupational roles & performance as a parent, child at home, school, workplace & within society. #otalk |

| Alannah Marie 🌼 @Alannah_OT RT @colourful_ot: @Alannah_OT I think from an OT perspective it would be important to look personal causation since often someone's self-es… |
| Georgia Vine @GeorgiaVineOT @Alannah_OT Certainly! For example, setting to online communities for them. #OTalk |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 Absolutely but most organisations don’t know the breadth of our role. #otalk It’s incredibly difficult to have a placement in this area I have been trying for about 5 years. |
| Susan Griffiths @SusanGriffiths5 @Alannah_OT Always but we need more training on using trauma-informed care and working with DV population. This was not covered when I did my training #OTalk |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 RT @Tori_Doll_: @OTalk_ Self esteem, sense of identity, loss of role/employment/friend group/immediate support (if they’ve had to relocate… |
| Georgia Vine @GeorgiaVineOT @Alannah_OT @margaretOT360 got it in there again! 😂#OTalk #VirtualOTPlacement |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 Great idea, as it allows anonymity and confidentiality when sharing #OTalk |
 | Abi Edwards 💙 @AbiEdwards7 @OTalk_ #otalk yes, trauma informed practice is growing in schools. Awareness of this and trauma informed approaches do make a difference. Also increase awareness of inter generational trauma and it’s effects. |
| Georgia Vine @GeorgiaVineOT RT @margaretOT360: Great idea, as it allows anonymity and confidentiality when sharing #OTalk |
| Olivia Pearce @OTOPearce @SusanGriffiths5 @Alannah_OT This would have been a real asset to my studying! #otalk |
| Tori OT @Tori_Doll_ @Alannah_OT Focusing on building confidence/self esteem/self worth. (Re)identifying areas of interests. Establishing a support network of peers. Establishing occ balance - it is key that the “loss” of the unhealthy relationship is filled with something positive. #OTalk |
| Georgia Vine @GeorgiaVineOT @Alannah_OT Up^* #OTalk |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 Trauma informed care is still not covered, maybe the curriculum needs an update? @theRCOT #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Alannah_OT yes- I would say more so if they are in any kind of mental health setting. How will depend on who they work with. #otalk |
| Rachel OT @_rachelOT @Alannah_OT We could do more. I think it would be great to see OTs link up more with the third sector in pursuit of creating organic spaces to engage, connect and heal! I'm not convinced that these spaces should always be professionally led - facilitating peer support can be magic! #otalk |

| Olivia Pearce @OTOPearce @_rachelOT @Alannah_OT I recently spent a day with assertive outreach and one of the OTs volunteered at a cafe that was this to a T! She spoke so highly of the service but unfortunately she was about to leave due to pay #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @_rachelOT @Alannah_OT or in terms of prisons, perhaps first focus on rehabbing their mental health and rebuilding confidence in crucial occupations again. #otalk |
| Tori OT @Tori_Doll_ @Alannah_OT 1) Hugely. DV influences all aspects of a persons life - it impacts the way they view the world, peoples intentions towards them. Lots of things can be triggering, for eg not being given simple choices can take them right back to how it felt to be with their perpetrator #OTalk |
| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 Co-production leading to service led service may help to start the ball rolling. #otalk |

| Sophie Maynard @SophieMaynard8 @Alannah_OT I think there's definitely scope for OTs to be more involved particularly when working with pts diagnosed with FNDs as there is often a trauma origin. Physio's seem to take the lead in this but I feel like we have the skills to compliment this #OTalk |

| Carolina C 🏳️🌈 @colourful_ot @Alannah_OT A4. In general we need more evidence on what trauma-informed OT looks like and how it differs from the way we would practise otherwise - I think there's starting to be a good evidence base in paeds (e.g. sensory attachment work) but with adults it's still poorly defined #OTalk |

| Tori OT @Tori_Doll_ @Alannah_OT 2) Occupational Therapists can work in a graded manner to explore the trauma, whilst working in a client centred way & help survivors to reestablish roles/identity etc. #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Alannah_OT I think so... since mental health comes into play in every setting. The only thing is- how do we get patients to trust us in such settings will be key. #otalk |

| Olivia Pearce @OTOPearce @_rachelOT @Alannah_OT As do I! I’m sure she was an asset but as you say it doesn’t have to be professionally led! If I remember correctly I believe they support service users to become peer support workers so that’s fantastic in its own right #OTalk |
 | Agnes @agnesvirtually All meetings to start like this. |
| Carolina C 🏳️🌈 @colourful_ot @Alannah_OT @BillWongOT Sone situations in physical health where I would think it's important: when carrying out physical contact with patients who may find that triggering, when looking at people's motivation and confidence to engage in physical tasks (see earlier tweet re: self-esteem) #OTalk |

| Carolina C 🏳️🌈 @colourful_ot @Alannah_OT A5. I think the challenge in any non-traditional setting is to define our role boundaries, e.g. looking at where we overlap with art therapy, psychology, etc. and advocating for how our specific approach can add to what the team is already offering #OTalk |

| Tori OT @Tori_Doll_ @Alannah_OT 1) I feel for me, on a personal level it would be around maintaining boundaries - having been through DV myself, I would find it hugely challenging to not become emotionally involved. Eventually, I would love to work in this area & find this particular #OTalk fascinating. |

| Georgia Vine @GeorgiaVineOT @Alannah_OT Frightening #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Alannah_OT I think it depends on the setting. In my setting, it can be useful to have consistent personnel so that the patients can trust the staff. #otalk |

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SusanGriffiths5 @Alannah_OT or even legislators and policy makers! They are ones that can have ultimate says to what we can/can't do in certain settings. #otalk |
 | Paediatric OT @OT_south RT @Alannah_OT: Q2. #otalk What do you think are the occupational disruptions of survivors of domestic violence? |
 | Rebecca Twinley @RebeccaTwinley @V_the_OT @BillWongOT @Alannah_OT Yes and victim/survivors can be anyone, regardless of gender of perpetrator or victim/survivor #otalk |
| Carolina C 🏳️🌈 @colourful_ot @BillWongOT @Alannah_OT Something that stuck with me recently was I was at a reflective practice group and the facilitator told a story of a client she had met who had recorded the name of every professional who had worked with him since he was a teenager and the number was in the hundreds (1/2) #OTalk |

| Tori OT @Tori_Doll_ @Alannah_OT 2) Professionally, I think it would be a challenge to empower the person if they were still in the DV environment. It would also potentially be challenging to evidence the effectiveness of intervention or identify useful ax tools. Would be interested to know what you use #OTalk |

| #OTalk @OTalk_ Next weeks #OTalk Research hosted by @SimpsonResearch https://t.co/Qs5qejNl9S |
| Sophie Maynard @SophieMaynard8 @Alannah_OT The broad nature of OT is both beneficial and its own barrier as it becomes difficult for people to see how it can fit in. The professional barrier may not work well in DV services as well, as there can be a lot of fear around "taking things further" #OTalk |

| Margaret Spencer MA @margaretOT360 I would use self rating, so the person keeps full control #otalk |
| Tori OT @Tori_Doll_ @margaretOT360 Maybe physically left the environment, but contact may continue - which is equally as damaging. The person may go back and forth numerous times & seek help/support before being “free” #OTalk |

| Sadie Blue @SadieBlueOT @Alannah_OT I feel often it can be our shyness as a profession/being brave enough to advocate and show our worth. I’ve worked with many social workers in CP who have blamed the victims for not doing more to protect their children without working holistically with the families #OTalk |
| Sadie Blue @SadieBlueOT @Alannah_OT Imagine being separated from your families/community network and being a lone parent having to attend CP conferences to keep your children and still the social worker advocates for the perpetrator to have contact w/child as that’s their ‘rights’ #OTalk |
| Sadie Blue @SadieBlueOT @Alannah_OT How does that engage any victim to feel heard, supported, empowered to continue on for themselves and their children?! 🤯 #OTalk |
| Sadie Blue @SadieBlueOT @OTalk_ Great talk! Thanks for hosting and so interesting to see the amount of OTs working in this area. You’re all amazing 💚 #OTalk |
