@easduncan Since I am on a couple teams, so not much major updates on activities front. #otalk

Welcome to our host tonight. First question coming up shortly. Remember the hashtag folks #Otalk

Question 1: What has changed in your research activities as a result of COVID-19? #Otalk
Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny
@easduncan The biggest change is that all research activity has had to stop #OTalk @easduncan
#OTalk @OTalk_
@OTBev Welcome Bev. We're looking forward to this one too! Should be interesting #otalk
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
@preston_jenny @easduncan yup- I felt it on my end as a research team member. #otalk

Still in the process of confirming this #OTalk. One study includes people with MND so delays could significantly impact on the original population #OTalk

@easduncan right now is being in quarantine. But in terms of research... playing the waiting game on when the next step will resume. #otalk
#OTalk @OTalk_
Here is question 2: What challenges have you faced as a result of COVID-19 and how (if you possible) have you overcome them? #OTalk

Seems like recruitment is one challenging many are facing #Otalk
Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny
I am really missing the research component to my role as it has reminded me how much I value the different strands. Trying to use the time constructively to write up evaluations and plan for future opportunities @easduncan #OTalk
adrienne cormican @adicormy
@SLawsonOT @easduncan I am the same, getting on with systematic review instead of interviewing therapists because I don't want to burden frontline workers and waiting until COVID settles somewhat #OTalk
#OTalk @OTalk_
Good advice! #Otalk
#OTalk @OTalk_
Any plan Bs that others have had to make that they can share? #Otalk

@pd2ot @easduncan Good luck with the viva #Otalk
#OTalk @OTalk_
Any thoughts on this? #Otalk
adrienne cormican @adicormy
@easduncan @NikkiDanielsOT @OTalk_ Spare room (if you have one), fold out table, create a work environment, oh and I got a new puppy to give me structure to my day and keep me company #OTalk
Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny
The opportunities are endless #OTalk as we have so much to learn about the disease; the impact; our ability as a profession to respond; rehabilitation demands/interventions/outcomes, to name but a few @easduncan

Great discussion tonight. Tim is going so fast! Here is Q3: What areas should occupational therapists be leading or collaborating in as a consequence of COVID-19? And looking forward what are the research opportunities for occupational therapy? #OTalk

RT @AnnaPettican:
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
@debbieduckie @easduncan giving nursing homes is a hotbed for this- I think another area of interest could be decreasing likelihood of readmission for another positive COVID case or possible complications related to it. #otalk
Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny
There is also a huge area of interest around the enhanced ability to facilitate discharge currently despite significantly compromised resources. What can we learn from this re discharge planning and onward referral when many services are currently cancelled #OTalk @easduncan
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
@naomialgeo speaking of clinical academic, I think it is important for such folks to be careful while being in such settings. Some settings are hotbed for this virus. #otalk

We are in to the last 10 minutes of tonight's busy chat! Time for one more question from our host #Otalk
Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny
Or is it just that people are not coming to the hospital front door at all, rightly or wrongly (still need to understand the true implications) depending on needs 🤔 #OTalk
adrienne cormican @adicormy
@naomialgeo @DrCConnell @NIHRcommunity I'm currently doing my Masters on this pathway through NIHR PCAF, due to return to clinical practice in September if not called back sooner to help frontline staff #OTalk

That’s 9pm folks! Where did that hour go? Thank you so much to our host @easduncan for tonight’s chat. I’m sure you’ll agree it was an interesting discussion. Please do feel free to continue chatting #otalk

It was a busy one tonight, so please do use #Otalk to search through the tweets as there might be some threads overlooked. We will let you know once the transcript is available #Otalk

@GeorgiaVineOT @LelanieBrewer Lots of people now understanding first hand what we mean by occupational deprivation! #OTalk

Thank you so much to @easduncan and @NikkiDanielsOT for your guidance, support and expertise tonight. Some great ideas as we move forward #OTalk

Great things going on in this #bathroom. The #toilet is raised, drop-down #GrabBar next to it and several more placed strategically. Roll in shower; rolling chair. Shower hose is at #accessible height. #msawareness #strokeawareness #Parkinsons #spinalcordinjury #homecare #OTalk https://t.co/O0sjzmurd5

@PenelopeFirshma @debbieduckie @easduncan I wish people would associate #OccupationalTherapy less with #Hospital #DischargePlanning. #Holistic occupational therapy is so much more than just that. #OTalk @OTalk_
