 | Kwaku Agyemang @KwakuOT @OTalk_ @RRule_OT @OT_rach Hi 👋🏿 #OTalk |
 | Orla @orlatheot @RRule_OT Not yet, I am on a male mental health rehabilitation ward and we offer to do sensory checklists with patients. #OTalk |
| Dr Alison Warren @alisonfwarren RT @Sheila_I_White: @OTalk_ @RRule_OT @OT_rach #OTalk lurking here. Interested in finding out more |
 | Look Hear Australia @lookhearaust @OTalk_ I work in Paeds and we use it all the time, though I am interviewing next week for a psychiatric hospital for children and young people. I could see the implications but really here tonight to watch and learn from people already working in the area :) #OTalk |
| Dr Alison Warren @alisonfwarren Am listening in to learn more about different settings appkying these approaches #OTalk |
| Kwaku Agyemang @KwakuOT @RRule_OT Yes, I’ve Used It Often In My Work With People With Learning Disabilities And Also In Mental Health Rehab Settings...I Have Also Observed And Used It Briefly During My Placement Working With Young Offenders In Prison. #OTalk |
 | Patrick maina @mainap65 RT @OTalk_: This is great and self discipline to undertake self directed learning is very important. And I personally believe it increases… |
 | Baker @thebakerstron @RRule_OT #OTalk Working in high secure forensic services. I have used sensory approaches on a 1:1 basis with High Dependency patients, however there is significant further work required due to the environment, which further contributes to sensory deprivation. |
| Dr Alison Warren @alisonfwarren Used these approaches for people of all ages with dementia in the past. On wards & at home #OTalk @OTPlymouthUni |
| #Hellomynameis Yvette @YvetteHaynesOT @RRule_OT I am an O.T Assistant working in mental health and O.T student. I am very interested in learning more about how SI interventions are used in mental health. #OTalk |
 | Hannah Kay @HannahKayOT @RRule_OT Yes I've seen it used in forensic mental health women's service. Currently doing a sensory modulation assessment with a service user. #OTalk |

| Rachel 🌙 @_rachelOT Q2. What do you perceive to be the barriers or benefits to using sensory based interventions in your specific setting? What made you chose to (or chose not to) use them with individuals previously? #otalk |
 | Grant Mitchell @MillennialOT @OTalk_ #OTalk as a Inpatient Mental Health young adult unit, I tend to do more exploratory and educational sensory groups rather than interventions; to explore fidgets, Sensory materials, weighted blankets, brushes, fidgets, aromatherapy Etc. |
| Emma Hall @Emm_OT @HannahKayOT @RRule_OT #OTalk sounds interesting. What ax do you use? |
| Dr Alison Warren @alisonfwarren #OTalk really interesting to hear this example @PIELRes |
 | HCSM News @HCSMnews RT @alisonfwarren: #OTalk really interesting to hear this example @PIELRes https://t.co/Kc8lbdVIa4 |
| OTalk @OTalk_ Question 2 here - #OTalk |
| Laura Jayne @Smalls_OT @RRule_OT ➖ Concept sometimes complicated to explain to some. Particularly arousal level and how this should go up and down throughout the day relevant to what we are doing. #OTalk |
| Grant Mitchell @MillennialOT @RRule_OT #OTalk there is some scarcity of concrete sensory strategy research and evidence, it’s tough to apply it directly to mental health settings aside from the research @Tchamp13 has done, I.e. weighted blankets have limited protocols especially for mental heath |
| Laura Jayne @Smalls_OT @RRule_OT ➕ Very useful pre Psychological therapy such as DBT, EMDR. Can gain lots of coping strategies which can be very effective #OTalk |
| OTalk @OTalk_ @NaomiOT24 you need to put the hashtag in all you tweets to join in the conversations. #OTalk |
| Emma Hall @Emm_OT @RRule_OT #OTalk limited guidance for implementation and evidence base. |
 | Megan Fowler @megrfowler @NormaMai_ @RRule_OT @NaomiOT24 I've not long started working in adult acute mental health, we have a sensory room in place which I'm interested in using more once I'm settled into the role! #OTalk |
 | Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT Late to the party. #otalk |
| Norma Harrington @NormaMai_ @RRule_OT Increasing self-awareness and empowering people to identify their needs and self-manage emotions / symptoms is so important, especially for discharge. I think a barrier could be cost, need for more research within the UK and training! #OTalk |
| Rachel 🌙 @_rachelOT RT @NormaMai_: @RRule_OT Increasing self-awareness and empowering people to identify their needs and self-manage emotions / symptoms is so… |
| #Hellomynameis Yvette @YvetteHaynesOT @RRule_OT The O.Ts need for SI training in order to practice SI may create a barrier to adopting a sensory approach within O.T in mental health services. Mental Health Trusts would need to invest money in training and study leave. The online SI training program may help with this #OTalk |
| Look Hear Australia @lookhearaust @OTalk_ #OTalk I think one of the barriers is other professionals not taking OT seriously/not knowing what we do/ you are just doing XYZ - how will that help etc, I get that even from teachers and other professionals |
| Rachel 🌙 @_rachelOT RT @Smalls_OT: @RRule_OT ➕ Very useful pre Psychological therapy such as DBT, EMDR. Can gain lots of coping strategies which can be very ef… |
| Katie Crowfoot @katie_crowfoot @RRule_OT #OTalk Barriers - resources, patients engagement, staff buy in from rest of MDT. Benefits- faster recovery, reduced costs on medication, faster recovery, reduced readmissions rates. More practice strategies to managing behaviour, triggers and symptoms. |
 | Jade @JadeH_OT @Smalls_OT @RRule_OT Good point - do you also find the way people present these arousal levels can also be very different? #OTalk |
 | Lucy Howell @howell_lucy @RRule_OT I have used as compensatory strategies, secondary community mental health #otalk |

| Rachel 🌙 @_rachelOT RT @katie_crowfoot: @RRule_OT #OTalk Barriers - resources, patients engagement, staff buy in from rest of MDT. Benefits- faster recovery,… |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @RRule_OT When I was in mental health, it was definitely used. However, in my current setting, not so much. #otalk |
| Laura Jayne @Smalls_OT @RRule_OT Often chose SI based interventions based on VdT MoCA Level, also based on risk. On reflection I think I was more likely to use with lower levels of ability and people who were deprived based on their risks (e.g: Long term segregation) #OTalk |
| Laura Jayne @Smalls_OT @MillennialOT @RRule_OT @Tchamp13 Yes! definitely! #OTalk |
 | Jenna d'Oliveira @jennadOliveira #OTalk Just saying Hi 👋 for now. . . Very interesting topic though |
 | Naomi OT @NaomiOT24 @RRule_OT @NormaMai_ and I barriers are space and funding... finding appropriate space for people to explore sensory approaches and being able to fund the session! #OTalk |
| Kwaku Agyemang @KwakuOT @MillennialOT @OTalk_ I Agree...At Times, It Is More About Teaching People About All The Different Things They Can Use As Coping Strategies Rather Than Pure Interventions To Bring About Changes In Behaviours. #OTalk |
| Lucy Howell @howell_lucy @RRule_OT #otalk barriers- belief in effectiveness both clients and staff. Benefits - quick to have an impact, especially on emotions |
| Baker @thebakerstron @RRule_OT #OTalk Benefits - using sensory approaches alongside VdTMoCA. Supporting nursing staff in a poor environment. Highly supportive for complex caseload. Barriers - Institutionalisation, staff resisting change old practice. Lack of understanding of sensory integration as a concept. |
| Grant Mitchell @MillennialOT @OTalk_ #OTalk I think understanding a model or hierarchy of use would be helpful too, whether a means or an end; sensory strategies are generally a bottom-up approach, that in someways is distraction oriented, I think framework that fits SI with CBT, DBT, etc would be helpful |
| Laura Jayne @Smalls_OT @JadeH_OT @RRule_OT Yes I guess so, I found it very difficult with some who often perceived we wanted them to be ‘Just Right’ all the time, and never go into blue/red zones despite the need to at times e.g if you was going to sleep #OTalk |
| Hannah Kay @HannahKayOT In my forensic placement it seems a big barrier is the restrictive environment , however, they are able to overcome this by having care plans in place to ensure the environment is suited to the service users sensory profile. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @RRule_OT Because I have to go around different nursing homes, hard to set such goals because of uncertainty of follow through from the rest of the teams that are regular staffs there. #otalk |

| Jade @JadeH_OT @eleanorramsell Did you learn much about sensory in your degree? I am about to go into 3rd year and we only had a brief intro to it. I think these discussions are helping to understand why everyone should have more sensory awareness, as every client has diff sensory needs! #OTalk |

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @howell_lucy: @RRule_OT I have used as compensatory strategies, secondary community mental health #otalk |
| Rachel 🌙 @_rachelOT Q3. What do you feel the role of the Occupational Therapist should be in facilitating sensory based interventions? #otalk |
| Laura Jayne @Smalls_OT @karenbeaulieuOT @RRule_OT Yes, lots of work done in practice I reckon, but little research. #OTalk |
| Baker @thebakerstron @RRule_OT #OTalk It also supports therapists in understanding violence and aggression, and provides alternative understanding when considering patients risk. |

| Baker @thebakerstron @Smalls_OT @RRule_OT #OTalk We have found that VdTMoCA and sensory interventions complement each other - and are hoping to continue developing that aspect of practice! |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @RRule_OT Education is one- in service can be helpful to share knowledge with other staffs in the same setting. #otalk |
| Kwaku Agyemang @KwakuOT @MillennialOT @RRule_OT @Tchamp13 It Really Does Come Down To Purely Personal Preferences I Believe Regardless Of The Research I Believe...Sensory Preferences Differ Soo Widely That To Capture And Align Protocol Would Be Such A Massive Piece Of Work For Anyone To Undertake. #OTalk |
| Jade @JadeH_OT @Smalls_OT @RRule_OT That's such a good point, the zones are very helpful for explaining things- thankyou for the insight 😀#Otalk |
| Laura Jayne @Smalls_OT @thebakerstron @RRule_OT & for us informed aspects our whole service model. It was a huge part of co-regulation before then learning to self-regulate. #Otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @RRule_OT And caregiver education (when applicable) is also important because sometimes you want to see if there is carryover from your sessions. #otalk |

| Hannah Kay @HannahKayOT Benefits is that it allows the service users to find coping strategies or realise what may make them have a sensory overload. Sensory based interventions may also be beneficial when working with people who have self harming behaviours. #otalk |

| Grant Mitchell @MillennialOT @RRule_OT #OTalk well the Adolf Meyer use of the ideas “opportunities for... doing, actual practice” I think are key... providing opportunity for experience of the autonomy of redirecting our nervous system, is ultimately OT because it can provide functional independence |
| OTalk @OTalk_ Some are forgetting to include the # in their tweets if you miss it out, your tweet will not be seen, and it will not go on the transcript of conversation so don’t forget #OTalk IN ALL TWEETS. https://t.co/umqISuhZhc |
| Naomi OT @NaomiOT24 @megrfowler @NormaMai_ @RRule_OT This is amazing! This is what we’re working towards - hopefully! 🤞 please let us know what interventions you use in there 😁 #OTalk |
| Baker @thebakerstron @Smalls_OT @RRule_OT #OTalk this is really interesting to hear - and will be a big part of the development of these approaches in our service @JadeMarie_R @CharCarpenter |

| Jenna d'Oliveira @jennadOliveira @NormaMai_ This would be awesome #OTalk |
| Katie Crowfoot @katie_crowfoot @OTalk_ I think OT are key to implementing the sensory based interventions, educating the team in learning, but also making the interventions realistic i.e. into everyday life occupations so that the patient can learn to incorporate into everyday routine. #OTalk |

| Look Hear Australia @lookhearaust @RRule_OT #OTalk teaching, showing, evidencing, and implementing these interventions with our clients, we know they work and we need to champion how these interventions are a non-invasive way to help |
| Grant Mitchell @MillennialOT @KwakuOT @RRule_OT @Tchamp13 I’m not sure this is necessarily “evidence based” but something along the lines of this would be interesting to study #OTalk https://t.co/oJWrIlkYaF |
| Hannah Kay @HannahKayOT As well as in my current placement, I've also seen sensory based interventions used within older adults mental health. #OTalk |
| K-OT @kalessandram @RRule_OT i think it can be really beneficial in to helping the individuals develop or add to their own coping strategies. I trial strategies with the individidual and we explore what is calming and use this with a sensory ladder. I add this to a PPBS &crisis plan #Otalk |

| Lucy Howell @howell_lucy @RRule_OT #otalk - with adults - oppertunities to explore, educate and facilitate some self discovery |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @kalessandram @RRule_OT I was on the receiving end of this once upon a time. That is one of the few things I needed to be a qualified OT. #otalk |

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @howell_lucy: @RRule_OT #otalk - with adults - oppertunities to explore, educate and facilitate some self discovery |
| Laura Jayne @Smalls_OT @OTalk_ we have knowledge, so sharing, role modelling the benefits (particularly in challenging/crisis situations). It was lovely to hear our colleagues ring us because they didn’t know what else to do, then a simple intervention from SI perspective had massive benefits. #Otalk |
| Laura Jayne @Smalls_OT So Important within adult MH! Make functional. #OTalk |
 | Phil King @philking53 @RRule_OT #Otalk sorry forgot the hashtag! |
| Norma Harrington @NormaMai_ @RRule_OT Also I wouldn't feel 100% sure about the safest use of sensory strategies with some individuals e. g. people who have been through trauma such as sexual abuse and the potential risk that exploring some sensory strategies could trigger feelings /memories e.g. deep pressure #OTalk |
 | Jessika Lack @JessikaLack_OT @RRule_OT Work in high dependency rehabilitation (locked rehab), we definitely use sensory based approaches, mainly in 1:1s (service users with tactile hallucinations, anxiety, ASC) or as part of our recovery and wellbeing group, letting individuals learn more about themselves #OTalk |

| Baker @thebakerstron @RRule_OT #OTalk In high security, its about education - supporting staff to understand the concepts and how these affect the patients under their care. Also, by 'doing' - OTs can demonstrate the value through innovation, and using sensory approaches to change the 'status quo'. |
| Rachel 🌙 @_rachelOT Q4. Do you believe that sensory based interventions could reduce the use of seclusion and restraint in your area of practice? If yes, how could this be demonstrated to the wider team? #otalk |
| Naomi OT @NaomiOT24 @RRule_OT #otalk - preventing readmissions by empowering people to self-regulate, find alternative ways to manage their mental health and explore new interests |
| K-OT @kalessandram @RRule_OT barriers are it being used as a one size fits all approach and undermining why we are doing it - not looking at the individual's needs in relation to occupation, ie non OTs seeking to give out weighted items to all without the expertise, individual assessment or guidance. #otalk |
| Grant Mitchell @MillennialOT @KwakuOT @eleanorramsell #OTalk to slight answe Question #2 again; item restrictions is a barrier, many tools aren’t safe and an organized checkout procedure beyond the basics of weighted blankets and aroma therapy, stressballs... is too much for the other unit staff on a locked unit |
| Dr Alison Warren @alisonfwarren Be great to see examples of successful strategies shared in OTNews or something similar #OTalk @karenbeaulieuOT |
| Jessika Lack @JessikaLack_OT @RRule_OT Specific training (commissioners and NHS England wanting specific sensory integration work for service users) however due to banding level unable to acquire funding. Resources (limited space, time and money!) #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT #otalk |
| Norma Harrington @NormaMai_ RT @MillennialOT: @OTalk_ #OTalk as a Inpatient Mental Health young adult unit, I tend to do more exploratory and educational sensory group… |
| #Hellomynameis Yvette @YvetteHaynesOT @RRule_OT I have seen SafeWards calm down sensory boxes used on wards to help people relax, lower their levels of agitation and arousal. SI O.Ts could take sensory interventions a lot further by making them more personalised & related to peoples valued occupations to enable recovery #OTalk |
| Laura Jayne @Smalls_OT @alisonfwarren @karenbeaulieuOT We used an example for #ValueofOT would have been over 18months ago now #OTalk |
| Kwaku Agyemang @KwakuOT @MillennialOT @RRule_OT @Tchamp13 This Looks Good...Perhaps Picking One Thing To Focus On May Be The Start To Trigger Everything Else...Like A Domino Effect. Will Look Into This When I Start My New Role. Something Like The Self Love Is What I Found The Young Offenders To Be Lacking So Could Look At That...#OTalk |
| Jade @JadeH_OT @NormaMai_ @RRule_OT Thats such an important point, something I had not thought about before, thankyou. #Otalk |

| OTalk @OTalk_ Question 4 #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @JadeH_OT: @NormaMai_ @RRule_OT Thats such an important point, something I had not thought about before, thankyou. #Otalk |
| Dr Alison Warren @alisonfwarren Many thanks will look this up #OTalk |
| Grant Mitchell @MillennialOT @RRule_OT #OTalk I think it does when it’s used as a care plan, particularly with self-harm, when collaborating with other unit staff, having a list of strategies even if they aren’t implemented perfectly, gives an attempted alternative to verbal de-escalation only approaches |
| Jessika Lack @JessikaLack_OT @RRule_OT Education, helping people learn about themselves and others (in particular other members of MDT or caters/ family). Exploration, providing opportunities and experiences in the act of ‘doing’. #OTalk |
| K-OT @kalessandram @RRule_OT also unless we can clearly explain our clinical reasoning, what we are doing and why with good knowledge of sensory approaches & neuroscience and how it enables person to particiapte in occupations there is a risk of being asked to just focus on sensory not occupation #Otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @RRule_OT I think so... especially if you find good matches. #otalk |
| Katie Crowfoot @katie_crowfoot @RRule_OT YES! I've seen the reduction of seclusion. But you need to get staff buy in... The only way I've found to prove this is by investing my time... Through observations, feedback to the team what I've observed and pre guessing incidents. De-brief/reflect with team, takes time #OTalk |

| Baker @thebakerstron @RRule_OT #OTalk I feel it has the potential to - especially on HDU in high security @JadeMarie_R . However, OTs need to be assertive in proving/measuring the impact of interventions - focussing on one patient to start things off, build a solid case study to present to MDT. |
| Naomi OT @NaomiOT24 @RRule_OT #otalk Yes! I really do feel that it can reduce V&A. We’re auditing the impact of sensory integrations to highlight the reduction of incidents. We’re hoping to have sensory ax soon after admission and have it written in to care plans so that they client remains in control too. |
| Laura Jayne @Smalls_OT @NormaMai_ @RRule_OT Defiantly something to consider. we saw a lot of distress and ways of regulating in the environment which were negative (e.g: seclusion to reduce sensory input, restraint for proprioceptive input). Think it’s useful to consider that it could be a positive risk to take #OTalk |
| Norma Harrington @NormaMai_ @RRule_OT Agree with all the above! back to basics- to help people to engage in activity e. g. people with sensory avoidant traits may isolate themselves and not engage in activities in busy envirnmnts. . by addressing this sensory need, it may help them to increase engagement! #OTalk |

| Hannah Kay @HannahKayOT Yes! There was a service user who actually loved to be restrained because of the sensory input and the feeling it gave her. Once they understood the reasoning and what could give them a similar feeling - they didn't get restrained anymore. #otalk |

| K-OT @kalessandram @RRule_OT Yes definitely, i have seen the impact, particularly when it is used proactively as part of someone's care plan. I think when someone is acutily unwell cognititive strategies are not effective. We need to communicate our resoning and document it. show impact pre & post #otalk |

| Baker @thebakerstron @RRule_OT #OTalk Training in SI has been commissioned for the entire service. Following this, specific work with patients will be key to demonstrate this approach and its value to MDT. Case formulations between OTs can also support each other in developing interventions. |
| Katie Crowfoot @katie_crowfoot @RRule_OT sensory ladder, sensory preferences checklist, assessment of areas identify, observe how patient interacts with. Spend time on wards implementing whilst explaining all the time to staff. offer a week of your time (2full days will be enough, but team will buy in to plan!) #OTalk |
| #Hellomynameis Yvette @YvetteHaynesOT @RRule_OT Could SI O.Ts lead SI awareness training to their wider team? I think I read some where that some mental health services in New Zealand have done this... #Otalk |
| Naomi OT @NaomiOT24 @KwakuOT @MillennialOT @RRule_OT @Tchamp13 #OTalk I agree re research.

| Jessika Lack @JessikaLack_OT @YvetteHaynesOT @RRule_OT We had something like this in our NHS trust. Sensory based approaches in OT offered by particular by OTs in learning disability services (funded to provide SI as part of directorate). This was open to all OTs across the trust! Great get together and learning for all #OTalk |
| Autismum @Autismum1 @RRule_OT #OTalk. I think it would be supported by the MDT. In Sussex we have a huge proportion of people who really struggle to manage their emotions and hurt them self in an attempt to make it stop. Many are not ready to tolerate psychology. A more skills development group is needed. |

| K-OT @kalessandram @RRule_OT i think we need to be explaining it to our MDT collegues and linking with evidence and occupation.

| Naomi OT @NaomiOT24 @RRule_OT We have amazing sensory assessments that are evidence based and developed by @NormaMai_ - they are user friendly and give people options to answer closed questions (exploratory) or give lots of examples (competence) for their sensory preferences. #OTalk |
