 | #OTalk @OTalk_ Welcome to tonight's #OTalk. It's [REDACTED USER] and [REDACTED USER] supporting tonight. Let us know who's joining us this evening before we hand over to [REDACTED USER] for the first question. |
 | OfficialCAHPR @OfficialCAHPR And #OTalk has just started... |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ A little reminder of our code of conduct before we get stuck in. Please remember the #OTalk in every tweet so that your contributions make it into the transcript. Be professional, have fun and enjoy the discussion. Lurkers welcome but feel free to contribute too. |
 | Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @OTalk_ [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] hello peeps! #otalk https://t.co/MD9QkaA6CH |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] We'll keep our fingers crossed for you that it holds out. #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] A1. Storytelling from a first person perspective. This is important because we often want to hear things from the source when we first meet our patients/clients/service users. #otalk |
 | 👋 Cindy OT 🤟 @TheSigningOT @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] A client/ patient telling their story. If we don’t have their narrative to learn who they are, their values, roles, occupations, etc. that are meaningful to them then we wouldn’t be providing OT from a holistic approach. #Otalk |
| @smileyfacehalo #OTalk Narratives are context dependent. All about individual perspective, man ...... https://t.co/wWQWp1O4kx | |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] That is why I am a fan of guest lectures of service users as an OT student. We get to learn things beyond our textbooks! #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Great image for tonight's #OTalk [REDACTED USER] . Love it! |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @SigningOTQueen: @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] A client/ patient telling their story. If we don’t have their narrative to learn who they ar… |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] I know I did a [REDACTED USER] talk on autism recently. It was an interesting experience for students to learn more about autism. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ I can see the theme and importance of being person centred being closely linked with narratives within occupational therapy so far in this #OTalk |
| 👋 Cindy OT 🤟 @TheSigningOT [REDACTED USER] Hmm, how do I explain this to my patients/ clients in a way that they understand? There has to be a better definition, I mean explanation. #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @SigningOTQueen: @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] A client/ patient telling their story. If we don’t have their narrative to learn who they ar… |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @SigningOTQueen: [REDACTED USER] Hmm, how do I explain this to my patients/ clients in a way that they understand? There has to be a bett… |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @OTalk_: I can see the theme and importance of being person centred being closely linked with narratives within occupational therapy so… |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Good point. Narratives don't just come from individuals. #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @RJOTSeashell [REDACTED USER] Before OT school, I did not buy that. But once I got into OT school (and understanding more about autism), I begin to realize that stats can lie. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] In a sense, I am one of your resident peer experts... lol! #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] or another way is- "what got you here?" #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @OTalk_ yes- in cases of people with dementia/Alzheimer's, or suddenly become totally bed ridden, then their caregivers will provide these narratives. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] That is why my Twitter is designed in such a way that I try to balance both professional content & lived experience content. Not the easiest for the latter because I still got to maintain professionalism in spite of that. So, there are some autism stuff I just won't tweet. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Easy to forget but please try and remember the #OTalk in every tweet. |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] very- I would say listening to some stories about how patients ended up in these nursing homes provided me some humble pie moments. #otalk https://t.co/DvtbWnWJD1 |
| 👋 Cindy OT 🤟 @TheSigningOT @BillWongOT @OTalk_ Actually, the interesting way of presenting my narrative was drawing a comic... I still have it and want to revise, so I can share it here on Twitter later on. I did this for my elective course “Narratives in Medicine”? when I was in OT school. #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @SigningOTQueen: @BillWongOT @OTalk_ Actually, the interesting way of presenting my narrative was drawing a comic... I still have it and… |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] although with communities, we got to be careful about making generalizations. We still should listen to individual narratives with an open mind to learn. #otalk |
| 👋 Cindy OT 🤟 @TheSigningOT [REDACTED USER] Yes, our narratives do change over time. Mine definitely has. We grow and evolve in time. I remember writing down significant events and accomplishments that occurred over the last decade. When I was done, I was like wow... I’ve done and have grown a lot too. #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ A good point. Just needs #OTalk to make it into the transcript. |
| 👋 Cindy OT 🤟 @TheSigningOT [REDACTED USER] Narratives were important when I worked with older adults. It helped us set appropriate goals, and those that meaningful to them. In early intervention, I listened to the family’s narrative, and we focused on goals that were more important to them and their child. #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ [REDACTED USER] Don't worry, happens to us all. You being here is valued #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] and that's the tough part sometimes when you are only there to perform evaluations for the patients in some settings in some parts of the world. Sometimes you don't get to see what the progress and outcomes are. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] I am not a bookworm, but I can certainly see reading as a meaningful occupation. I think once students are away from pressure cookers of their studies, some of them may discover the joy of reading again. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Half way through tonight's #OTalk doesn't time fly? |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] and in my setting- sometimes patients will be on caseload multiple times. So, I find myself skipping the story part if they are readmitted to the caseload. #otalk |
| @smileyfacehalo [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] #otalk like this thread. So we create our narrative through our words. Mind bendy https://t.co/23qGizHCr5 | |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] true- especially if these patients are seen in the NICU. So, you will need to find out how these babies end up in your caseload. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ A nice description of reading from a personal perspective #OTalk |
| 👋 Cindy OT 🤟 @TheSigningOT [REDACTED USER] I’d like to add that narratives allow me to learn about their roles, routines... Every person and family is unique. I’m super blessed to work in Queens, which is one of the most diverse places to live. I work with families of all ethnic, cultural and religious backgrounds. #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Good reminder of the different ways we can access reading #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] or even when you are a student on placement. You do an evaluation for a patient in your final week... and then you won't see him/her again. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] this brings up this question- what if you need an interpreter? Then, I think it will be the interpreter's responsibilities to make sure both sides are understood- you and the service user. #otalk |
| @smileyfacehalo [REDACTED USER] It’s work. #otalk leisure is anything with pictures. https://t.co/pqFTAAsJt4 | |
| 👋 Cindy OT 🤟 @TheSigningOT [REDACTED USER] Yes. It’s a meaningful occupation, probably even moreso if you choose what to read. Also, can probably learn something about a person by what types of books they enjoy reading. Of course, it gives us as chance to ask questions and establish rapport. #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] in nursing home environment in my setting, it is not uncommon for long term care residents being on caseload 10+ times! #otalk |
| 👋 Cindy OT 🤟 @TheSigningOT [REDACTED USER] Personally, I love reading, especially when I was an introverted teenager. It gave me comfort. I think it was later on that I grew out of my shell and was able to socialize with more friends. I don’t get to do as much now, but I’m hoping to change that. #Otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] I am lucky I am trilingual. So, when I have to use another language other than English clinically, I always try to find culturally acceptable words that the situations require. (I admit- I need to practice my Mandarin from time to time to make sure I am sharp!) #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @SigningOTQueen: [REDACTED USER] Personally, I love reading, especially when I was an introverted teenager. It gave me comfort. I think i… |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] how about this- what if YOU are the interpreter for a work colleague? #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ A good reminder that narratives can be articulated in many forms #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] yes/no in my setting. If I am a regular in a nursing home, yes! If I am NOT, though, I still would have to figure things out as if they were there the first time. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] haha- I stutter a bit last week too. My primary language is not English, you know. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] Adulthood is a different ball game. Each autistic adult has his/her personality. I know I can be quirky sometimes... though I try to stay professional because that's my ultimate responsibility. #otalk |
| 👋 Cindy OT 🤟 @TheSigningOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] I think English is tough! American Sign Language is so much more graceful, that’s just my opinion. Also, the grammar of ASL is more similar to French than English... believe it or not. #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @SigningOTQueen: [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] I think English is tough! American Sign Language is so much more graceful, that’s just my opinio… |
| @smileyfacehalo [REDACTED USER] #otalk productivity ninja | |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SigningOTQueen [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] Unbiasedly speaking, I would say Chinese is tougher. I would say Cantonese is probably my hardest, followed by Mandarin, then English... if all things are equal. #otalk |
| 👋 Cindy OT 🤟 @TheSigningOT @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] There’s always going to be words that are lost in translation. That’s tough. There’s no appropriate sign for “OT” except finger-spelling “O-T” #Otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] At least you can tell your sister, "Hey! One of my work colleagues across the pond is also autistic." #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @SigningOTQueen: @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] There’s always going to be words that are lost in translation. That’s… |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SigningOTQueen [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] well- in Chinese, having to remember what translation (since we have 3) to apply is not easy. There's 1 for people from mainland China. 1 for Hong Kong, and 1 for other Chinese speaking countries. So I always ask where people are from if they are Chinese speaking. #otalk |
| 👋 Cindy OT 🤟 @TheSigningOT [REDACTED USER] @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] The problem is how do I sign “occupation” - I may have to expand and sign “involves everything that you do...” #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] @SigningOTQueen [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] When it comes to Chinese, I think full term is automatic. If abbreviation, I will just say OT instead. #Otalk |
| 👋 Cindy OT 🤟 @TheSigningOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] I’m use to work in Geriatrics... now I’m working in Early Intervention #OTalk |
| 👋 Cindy OT 🤟 @TheSigningOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] PS: sorry about the typo #Otalk |
| 👋 Cindy OT 🤟 @TheSigningOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] To be fair, Dutch, English and ASL are completely different languages! #Otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SigningOTQueen [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] I have this difficulty with Chinese- Cantonese or Mandarin. So, I get around it by mentioning specific occupations instead. #otalk |
| 👋 Cindy OT 🤟 @TheSigningOT @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] Smart. I end up signing “eating, brushing teeth, combing hair, getting dressed, going to the toilet, bathing” lol #Otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SigningOTQueen [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] in my case, it helps that I am a native speaker in Cantonese and more than competent in Mandarin. So that is my adaptation strategy! #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] That is why I adapted this practice when I attended both WFOT in 2014 and 2018. Whenever I see Mandarin speaking or Cantonese speaking OT's, I would speak to them in these languages instead of English. I want to pick up terminologies I would not have known from textbooks. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] @SigningOTQueen [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] 9 tones for Cantonese and 5 for Mandarin. #otalk |
 | Cheryl Crow, Arthritis Life @realcc [REDACTED USER] YES! #OTalk https://t.co/jdi2P7dS8q |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Not to cut across the conversation, but there's only 5 minutes left. Any final thoughts? #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] @SigningOTQueen [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] @OTalk_ [REDACTED USER] How similar is BSL vs. ASL... that will be the thing. #otalk |
| Cheryl Crow, Arthritis Life @realcc @RJOTSeashell [REDACTED USER] Yes! #OTalk https://t.co/ZStiuaMCNo |
| 👋 Cindy OT 🤟 @TheSigningOT [REDACTED USER] Tuesdays With Morrie An Unquiet Mind Brain on Fire I enjoyed the first because the person wanted to make his remaining time meaningful. The second two - really enjoyed reading about their first-person accounts regarding their struggles with mental health #Otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] and given we are in this pandemic... reading lips is not an option in some settings. :( #otalk |
| Cheryl Crow, Arthritis Life @realcc RT @SigningOTQueen: [REDACTED USER] Tuesdays With Morrie An Unquiet Mind Brain on Fire I enjoyed the first because the person wanted to mak… |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Well that's the official hour done. What a great discussion and so many good book recommendations. Thanks to [REDACTED USER] for hosting. Don't forget the transcript will pick up any tweets with the #OTalk until tomorrow and will be available later in the week. |
| Cheryl Crow, Arthritis Life @realcc [REDACTED USER] Right now I have to say The Happiness Trap @the_hap_trap by Russ Harris, which is about #AcceptanceAndCommitment therapy, a mindfulness and meaningful values based approach which is SO congruent with occupational therapy! #OTalk https://t.co/eVd0YWb2v9 |
| 👋 Cindy OT 🤟 @TheSigningOT @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] @OTalk_ [REDACTED USER] ASL and BSL are so different. For example, ASL you sign all letters using one hand, and BSL two. Whew, I put up a Twitter video of me signing a greeting in BSL... I had to learn each word. #Otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ #OTalk Chat – 28th April 2020 – Groupwork in Dementia Care https://t.co/OZ1lhDPain |
| 👋 Cindy OT 🤟 @TheSigningOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] I learned ASL in college! English is my first language #Otalk :) |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Probably true for many of us from tonights #OTalk. Transforming the transcript into a book reading wish list. |
| 👋 Cindy OT 🤟 @TheSigningOT @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] Absolutely. That’s why I advocate providers to team up in 2, and learn relevant gestures and signs- to expedite and ensure accuracy in communication... #Otalk |
 | Louise @oomooeatingcake Thanks everyone! #OTalk |
| 👋 Cindy OT 🤟 @TheSigningOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] I forgot to include earlier... OT in #EI focuses on embedded coaching, so techniques that the family can use during their routines, and the child can learn those skills through play. #Otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ [REDACTED USER] The #OTalk transcript will be available later this week but unfortunately we will each need to review it individually to make a book wish reading list |
| 👋 Cindy OT 🤟 @TheSigningOT [REDACTED USER] @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] @OTalk_ It’s all right that’s there’s no one sign. I simply expand and sign examples of occupation... and then I sign “teach those skills, or help you be able to do them safely and as independently as you can” #Otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Well done [REDACTED USER]. A great #OTalk |
| 👋 Cindy OT 🤟 @TheSigningOT @BillWongOT [REDACTED USER] [REDACTED USER] I only know Mandarin, but I’m not fluent. Mandarin only has 4 tones, but I struggle with that lol #Otalk |
| @smileyfacehalo Is it possible to #otalk @otalk about the impact of lockdown on the individual and occupations?... is anyone doing this as an #otalk ?? | |
| @kaleidoscopier @SigningOTQueen [REDACTED USER] Late to the #OTalk party (as ever) - depends on the person/situation obviously, but could you could explain it as the story of why/how you do [occupation], or the story of why you do [occupation] that way? | |
 | Chantelle Martin 🟢ccupational Therapist @chaniedavies [REDACTED USER] @OTalk_ #OTalk |
 | Nix 🤓 @thisisnix [REDACTED USER] @OTalk_ Absolutely. Libraries & bookstores are some of my favourite places to be in for hrs. 💚 #Reading #OTalk https://t.co/eGpMTA84hq |

| @StacyTurkeOT #OTalk2US I have been working for the same intermediate school district for 34.5 years, currently serving students in one local, suburban district. We closed for #COVID19 on 3/16, and officially started back with teacher planning 4/13. #DistanceLearning since. | |

| Mrs. Katie, MEd, OTR/L @ktharris @_allisulli @StacyTurkeOT @otnotes #OTalk2US I'm here, ready to learn from my great #SchoolOT colleagues! =) |
| @StacyTurkeOT @OTBrianNY @otnotes Good question! It's ongoing for most of us and will be the topic of much of our discussion today! #OTalk2US | |
| @StacyTurkeOT @prilbo Hi friend! Are you working now? #schoolOT #OTalk2US | |
| @StacyTurkeOT @ktharris @_allisulli @otnotes So happy you are here! "Home" from a busy day of #schoolOT? #OTalk2US | |
| Allison Sullivan @_allisulli @otnotes Hi #OTalk2US I worked FT as a school-based OT from 1993-2005, during which time I provided treatment, as well as supervision and training to school-based OTs, PTs & SLPs in 20 different school systems in Massachusetts #schoolOT |
| @StacyTurkeOT @_allisulli @otnotes So happy you are bringing your experience into our chat today Allison! #SchoolOT #OTalk2US | |
 | Ann Merrifield @OTMerrifield @otnotes I just spent my first FW with @StacyTurkeOT in the schools. That was the hardest part for me, limiting interventions to the "education" model. The schools need to implement more OTs as mental health providers to help children access curriculum after this trauma. #OTalk2US |
| Allison Sullivan @_allisulli @StacyTurkeOT @otnotes I am eager to learn about resources that are being used by therapists encountering this new environment in which we are providing treatment bc I work now at a residential school & want to share these resources with my MSOT pediOT students as well #OTalk2US |
| @StacyTurkeOT @OTBrianNY @otnotes Consulting with teachers or parents, and sending home work for students to do independently. My districts are using this model as well as some direct work via #telehealth #SchoolOT #OTalk2US | |
| @StacyTurkeOT RT @OTMerrifield: @otnotes I just spent my first FW with @StacyTurkeOT in the schools. That was the hardest part for me, limiting intervent… | |
| @StacyTurkeOT @OTMerrifield @otnotes Hey there Ann! You are right, in the districts we serve here, most of the #mentalhealth work is done via the school counselors and social workers. But in some locations, #schoolOT can delve into mental health beyond #selfregulation strategies #OTalk2US | |
| 👋 Cindy OT 🤟 @TheSigningOT @otnotes Interesting. Thanks for sharing. School OT is pretty different from #EI then. It’s definitely promotes a more holistic family-centered approach, since it’s home-based. #Otalk2us |
| Allison Sullivan @_allisulli I agree. School-based OTs must do a better job of advocating for their mental health skills & knowledge being used in this setting more effectively. One of my doctoral students has developed a study reflecting OT practitioner ambivalence about using these skills #OTalk2US |
| @StacyTurkeOT @otnotes So far my programs haven't started direct services, we are providing the consulting and information seeking parts of our planning. Zoom (or similar platform) all class meetings are my favorite so far. Gives us a chance to see how kids and families are doing globally.#OTalk2US | |
| @StacyTurkeOT @otnotes Direct services start Monday! #OTalk2US | |
| 👋 Cindy OT 🤟 @TheSigningOT @prilbo Same with me, only working with over 1/2 of my caseload. I took on a few new cases during this period. Note, I’m doing #EI. #Otalk2us |
| @StacyTurkeOT Curious how many districts/states are requiring participation in #DistanceLearning and how many are making it optional? #schoolOT #OTalk2US | |
| @ Yes! I feel like we are barely touching upon our potential working in schools because there’s so much assistance we can provide but we are limited to our students with IEPs and what specific goals they have. #schoolOT #OTalk2US | |
| @StacyTurkeOT @SigningOTQueen @otnotes I see this as one of the greatest silver-linings of this whole thing, Cindy. We will get a bit more access to the families of our students now that kids are at home! #OTalk2US #SchoolOT | |
| Ann Merrifield @OTMerrifield @StacyTurkeOT @otnotes Tell all the kids that I worked with that I miss them! #OTalk2US |
| @StacyTurkeOT @OTMerrifield @otnotes Will do! I hate that your experience with these kiddos ended so abruptly! :( #OTalk2US #schoolOT | |

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT Hello! Little late today. #OTalk2US |
| @StacyTurkeOT This woman knows her stuff #OTalk2US #SchoolOT | |
| @StacyTurkeOT @prilbo Yes. It's an essential at my house too. #OTalk2US | |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @StacyTurkeOT: @otnotes So far my programs haven't started direct services, we are providing the consulting and information seeking part… |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @_allisulli: I agree. School-based OTs must do a better job of advocating for their mental health skills & knowledge being used in this… |
| Ann Merrifield @OTMerrifield @_allisulli Thank you @_allisulli! What a great resource. #OTalk2US |
| Mrs. Katie, MEd, OTR/L @ktharris @otnotes I "saw" 3 students today, different ages, different abilities (I'm w/1 elem.,1 middle, 2 high schools). Addressed a bit of IEP/OT goals w/ therapy, but also provided support & discussion w/ the moms. Was really pleased w/ our collaboration. Very heart-warming. #OTalk2US |
| 👋 Cindy OT 🤟 @TheSigningOT @otnotes I think I can add here. If the family did not have too many resources at home and did not want to work on ADLs, I found having books, magnets (letters, numbers, animals, shapes) helped. I also had an extra device (smartphone) so I could play a song if I needed to. #Otalk2us |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @SigningOTQueen: @otnotes I think I can add here. If the family did not have too many resources at home and did not want to work on ADLs… |
| Allison Sullivan @_allisulli @OTMerrifield Feel free to follow up with me if you have any questions about the recommended approaches to treatment #OTalk2US |
| @StacyTurkeOT @otnotes I believe the executive order in MI states that families cannot be penalized if they can't participate for whatever reason. We are offering FAPE and families can choose to participate or not. #OTalk2US | |

| Ann Merrifield @OTMerrifield @_allisulli Will do! Trauma is where my heart is. #OTalk2US |
| @StacyTurkeOT @BillWongOT Hi Bill! #OTalk2US | |

| Mrs. Katie, MEd, OTR/L @ktharris @otnotes #OTalk2US I want to do that (provide materials) but unsure how to deliver or should I go to store and buy therapy/art/craft goodies? The 3 I saw today had what they needed at home. |
| @StacyTurkeOT @prilbo In a #bestpractices webinar a couple weeks ago, it was suggested that 2 cameras are needed, and you are clearly demonstrating that, Miss April! #SchoolOT #OTalk2US | |
| @ 😁😁😁 | |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @ktharris @otnotes Depending on the distance, maybe you can do curb side delivery? #otalk2us |
| @StacyTurkeOT @ktharris @otnotes Some of my programs are doing #porchdropoff of a "toolkit" so that students have the essential items they need to access curriculum in the most efficient way. Basic essentials depending on the age of the child and devel level. #OTalk2US #SchoolOT | |
| Mrs. Katie, MEd, OTR/L @ktharris @BillWongOT @otnotes I'm willing (this is a small county) but I'd hate if anybody got sick (not necess. from ME) would they think I'm at fault. ????#OTalk2US |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @ktharris @otnotes Or maybe you can ask the family to let you know what inventories they have to work with. #otalk2us |
| Ann Merrifield @OTMerrifield @_allisulli I am always surprised when educators are not aware of OT's roll in cognitive and psychosocial areas. Back to our roots! #OTalk2US |
| @StacyTurkeOT @otnotes I am really struggling with organizing all the "new!" We are learning new tech platforms, attending new trainings, receiving new resources. HELP! #SchoolOT #OTalk2US |
