@OTalk_ @Helen_OTUK @AdamFerry3 Hello everyone, glad to joining in tonight #OTalk @Helen_OTUK @AdamFerry3
Mike OT Student @A5COMICS
Good evening everyone, im Mike, and i am due to to start my second year at Northampton University in September #OTalk
Adam Ferry @AdamFerry3
@OTalk_ @Helen_OTUK Good evening everyone, this topic comes on the back of my own reflection on how my use of an exhibition has changed and how this mindset change has had impacts in places I had not considered or expected it to #OTalk Q1. Warm up Q - What do you want to get out of an exhibition?
Becky Cooper @beckycooper___
@OTalk_ @Helen_OTUK @AdamFerry3 Hello! OT student here, also employed by NHS in OT assistant role #OTalk
OTalk @OTalk_
#OTalk Q1.....
Colin P G Jones @colinpgjones
@preston_jenny @OTalk_ @Helen_OTUK @AdamFerry3 Hey in Menorca but will be dipping in and out... #OTalk
Helen OTUK @Helen_OTUK
@AdamFerry3 @OTalk_ To meet with manufacturers, suppliers... #OTalk
Sophie is my name. @ciderwithsophie
@OTalk_ Opening my eyes to new ideas, challenging my perceptions/practice and informing practise/confirming good practice, making links and learning to take back to the team #OTalk
Colin P G Jones @colinpgjones
@AdamFerry3 @OTalk_ @Helen_OTUK Load and loads and loads to put it simply #OTalk
Helen OTUK @Helen_OTUK
@colinpgjones @preston_jenny @OTalk_ @AdamFerry3 the dedication! #OTalk
Becky Cooper @beckycooper___
@AdamFerry3 @OTalk_ @Helen_OTUK Love seeing what products are out there and thinking about/discussing with colleagues how they could be used in practice although this is as far as it has got! Also enjoy and value networking opportunities and putting faces to names with equipment companies we work with #OTalk
Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny
@AdamFerry3 @OTalk_ @Helen_OTUK I still struggle with exhibitions. I find them overwhelming and I usually get caught up with the first couple of exhibitors I come across. I think I might need a more strategic approach #OTalk
Margaret Spencer @margaretOT360
Up to date info, new developments, useful things for my clients #otalk
Adam Ferry @AdamFerry3
@Helen_OTUK @OTalk_ So is it meeting them that you want or is that a means to an end? #OTalk
Kirsty Stanley @KEStanley
@OTalk_ @Helen_OTUK @AdamFerry3 Very interested in topic tonight #OTalk exhibitions enhancing knowledge and informing practice, collaboration with companies
Adam Ferry @AdamFerry3
@colinpgjones @OTalk_ @Helen_OTUK Like what...pens...note books...catalogues..? #OTalk
Mike OT Student @A5COMICS
Q1 Warm up, If i visit an exhibition, i hope i get to see the latest developments and innovations in OT support, and possibly gather information that will help build my knowledge base #OTalk
Hannah Silcock @Scrumpess
At an exhibition I ike to see what new products are around and network. Working in the NHS can sometimes restrict knowledge of resources that may be best for our clients due to limited budgets #otalk
Colin P G Jones @colinpgjones
@AdamFerry3 @OTalk_ @Helen_OTUK I love the networking, inspiration of others practice and ideas which can enrich my practice, challenge thoughts, see what’s new and get what I need for the Children& Young people I represent... so usually arm twist manufacturers as well as do a knowledge & skills exhange #OTalk
Susan Windeatt @mooartdotcom
#OTalk Ooo how exciting I love equipment & design! Re: Q1 - I like to see a range of options and have the opportunity to discuss with suppliers challenges I might have come across. Haha and as has been said...free pens ... or in a blue moon free tape measures! ;-)
Becky Cooper @beckycooper___
@AdamFerry3 @OTalk_ @Helen_OTUK I also like to do some prior research to see which exhibitions will be there and an overview of what their products are. We tend to split these between our team and come together afterwards to feedback on findings #OTalk
Margaret Spencer @margaretOT360
They are kind of the same parcel, it’s good to have a relationship with the exhibitors as they are useful people to be in contact with after the Show #otalk
Adam Ferry @AdamFerry3
@preston_jenny @OTalk_ @Helen_OTUK I think that is very common and pretty much exactly as I describe my own 'overwhelmed wanderings' in my blog #OTalk
Colin P G Jones @colinpgjones
@preston_jenny @AdamFerry3 @OTalk_ @Helen_OTUK I find that works I usually have 3 or 4 thing I want to research or find out about, influence or people to meet/see. #OTalk
Hannah Silcock @Scrumpess
@AdamFerry3 @colinpgjones @OTalk_ @Helen_OTUK the pens are always a great bonus! :D #otalk
Helen OTUK @Helen_OTUK
@AdamFerry3 @OTalk_ both, meet them see their products... discuss get hands on. #Otalk
Margaret Spencer @margaretOT360
To be fair I am a fan of overwhelming wandering sand have made some great contacts that way #otalk
Adam Ferry @AdamFerry3
@colinpgjones @OTalk_ @Helen_OTUK Good answer!! #OTalk
Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny
@AdamFerry3 @OTalk_ @Helen_OTUK I always feel like I run out of time and wish I had asked more questions #OTalk
Colin P G Jones @colinpgjones
@AdamFerry3 @OTalk_ @Helen_OTUK No I usually go with a ruck sack and will only take what I can carry or need, the team go on mass for that so I just get to chat. Or see if I can help #OTalk
Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny
@beckycooper___ @AdamFerry3 @OTalk_ @Helen_OTUK That sounds like a strategy that I could use #OTalk
Adam Ferry @AdamFerry3
@margaretOT360 Me too. What I want to come on to later is what we then do with the contacts to make them reciprocally meaningful #OTalk
Becky Cooper @beckycooper___
@AdamFerry3 @OTalk_ @Helen_OTUK Also recently attended #OPAC in Cambridge where they held some really good seminars - found these valuable and my team has taken forward a space saving idea for bathroom adaptations #OTalk
Colin P G Jones @colinpgjones
@Helen_OTUK @preston_jenny @OTalk_ @AdamFerry3 No just like to talk to fellow Occupatiknal therapists and get what I need.... #OTalk
OTalk @OTalk_
@colinpgjones @Helen_OTUK @preston_jenny @AdamFerry3 I meant joining us on your holibobs! #OTalk
Becky Cooper @beckycooper___
@preston_jenny @AdamFerry3 @OTalk_ @Helen_OTUK Just allows each team member to be more focused on certain areas of interest but also means that they don't miss out on what else is going on - works really well for us! #OTalk
Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny
@colinpgjones @AdamFerry3 @OTalk_ @Helen_OTUK Far too disciplined @colinpgjones 😂😂 #OTalk
Adam Ferry @AdamFerry3
#OTalk A lot of you have mentioned 'influence' which leads quite nicely into Q2. When I worked solely in the NHS i felt I had little influence, either as a purchaser or consultant...so...Is there a difference in mindset between private/stat sector OT in an exhibition?
Margaret Spencer @margaretOT360
Yes I think now there is an expectation of something more interactive, presentation, trying equipment as CPD is hard to get any other way for some OTs #otalk
Becky Cooper @beckycooper___
@margaretOT360 Yes - definitely agree with this! It seemed to work well as email address details were given and we were provided with a CPD certificate for each session we attended #OTalk
Mike OT Student @A5COMICS
#OTalk i visited the 02 which was holding a spinal and neuro exhibition to get an idea of developments from an OT perspective, a lot of the newest developments where 10-15 years into the future and required further investment which was disappointing.
Margaret Spencer @margaretOT360
Possibly I feel I can ask about issues and how their product could help or what they could do about it #otalk
Hannah Silcock @Scrumpess
Last year I went with the mindset of sourcing equipment for a new service. It provided a whole new way of approaching an exhibition for me I took time to talk to companies about needs, got contacts and it helped to develop the service to meet the needs of the clients #otalk
Sophie is my name. @ciderwithsophie
@beckycooper___ @preston_jenny @AdamFerry3 @OTalk_ @Helen_OTUK This is a very strategic approach, out of interest how many of your team attend? #OTalk
Margaret Spencer @margaretOT360
Yes I got the outcome measures from Phil @theOTShow #otalk
Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny
@AdamFerry3 As I work with people with complex neurological conditions I am always on the lookout for innovative, creative solutions. I don’t feel restricted within the NHS but do need to be clear and articulate the justification for bespoke requests #OTalk
Becky Cooper @beckycooper___
@ciderwithsophie @preston_jenny @AdamFerry3 @OTalk_ @Helen_OTUK It does vary dependent on service demand, size of conference etc. 2 of us visited #OTAC recently and fed back to the team, however, for #Naidex or #TheOTShow most of the OT and support staff team will attend so approx. 8 #OTalk
Adam Ferry @AdamFerry3
@Scrumpess Thats a really good example of something that created purpose and led to you developing a strategy. What do people do you dont go with a specific purpose? #OTalk
Becky Cooper @beckycooper___
@A5COMICS That sounds interesting.. were they concepts which they are actively working on? #OTalk

Colin P G Jones @colinpgjones
@AdamFerry3 Yes & local authority. I think having worked in all 3 u can get cultured in2 the mind set that you can only get what local stores say you can have. I thing the local managers also can have a large influence. Getting the right equip for the assessed need always best value #OTalk
Becky Cooper @beckycooper___
@AdamFerry3 I've not had experience within the private sector, but I would imagine the key element for both private and statutory would be justification for the need of the equipment, regarding patient safety/satisfaction, suitability, cost effectiveness, etc? #OTalk
Margaret Spencer @margaretOT360
I have created job opportunities for people I supervise linking with products like @SpringChicken they are all fantastic networking opportunities #otalk
Adam Ferry @AdamFerry3
I asked Q2 because my experience was that I had very little chance of ever being able to successfully request the great equipment I was seeing; nor did I consider that I could provide the exhibitor with my expertise. Am I alone? #OTalk
OTalk @OTalk_
#OTalk Q2
Margaret Spencer @margaretOT360
I carried on the communication months after the exhibition finished #otalk
Becky Cooper @beckycooper___
@A5COMICS Sounds fab, will have to let me know when it is next year! #OTalk
Adam Ferry @AdamFerry3
@margaretOT360 @springchicken Were you working solely in a statutory service when you understood the importance of networking in exhibitions? That didnt come until later for me #OTalk
Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny
@AdamFerry3 Definitely not alone @AdamFerry3. I also didn’t realise some of the flexible options e.g. renting equipment for people with life limiting conditions. I was able to take that back to commissioners #OTalk

Adam Ferry @AdamFerry3
@preston_jenny Exactly! Please it wasnt just me #OTalk
Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny
@margaretOT360 I think that’s one of the greatest benefits @margaretOT360 We have also had some really informative demonstrations and discussions develop beyond the exhibition #OTalk

Mike OT Student @A5COMICS
@beckycooper___ #otalk The main areas were virtual reality support there was a OT perspective on that, neurological support apps for entertainment and communication, and exo suit support for stroke and cerebal palsy sufferers
Adam Ferry @AdamFerry3
@margaretOT360 Had you been in a statutory role before that and if so did your mindset change when your role did? #OTalk
Becky Cooper @beckycooper___
@AdamFerry3 We have so many discussions with equipment companies who are keen to come and demonstrate their piece of equipment... think we (speaking as a member of my team, NHS) could definitely get better at taking them up on this offer as it could lead to a positive outcome! #OTalk
Margaret Spencer @margaretOT360
Yes a complete mindset shift.#otalk

Sophie is my name. @ciderwithsophie
@OTalk_ I think there is, unless you *DO* have that power to influence your public sector setting. Although I guess you could argue we all could take back the clinical reasoning from OT show demos to supervision? #OTalk
Hannah Silcock @Scrumpess
@AdamFerry3 I didn't go without purpose, but more for CPD & for a toolbox for specific occasions. As this was for the private sector, it opened up a whole new field. Conversations with reps were more meaningful as you can use their products easier/assist in their market research #otalk
Adam Ferry @AdamFerry3
Always amazed how quickly the hour goes! A lot of people have posted about how they target companies that may be able to solve a problem for them/client but has anyone had experience of providing feedback to a company that has influenced their product? #OTalk
Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny
@beckycooper___ @AdamFerry3 It can also lead to some real benefits for the team e.g. we were invited to host a splinting demo and get free training for all our staff #OTalk
Becky Cooper @beckycooper___
@AdamFerry3 I guess it's just taking that step and organising some demonstrations, also realising that not every piece of demonstrated equipment is going to be better than what we are currently using... but definitely would be good to at least know/see what the alternatives are #OTalk
Adam Ferry @AdamFerry3
@Scrumpess I felt that my conversations were more meaningful too I agree. However, I recently used this experience to help change procurement of some hoisting equipment within my NHS role hence my reflection on whether this was actually just my own mindset #OTalk
Becky Cooper @beckycooper___
@preston_jenny @AdamFerry3 Wow, longer term benefits also which is always good #OTalk As a member of the OT support staff I'm sure this could be something I could influence and help to arrange?
Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny
@beckycooper___ @AdamFerry3 I usually find the reps to be very honest and often they help decide when their product is not the most suitable #OTalk
LD OT Laura @CommunityLD_OT
@AdamFerry3 @OTalk_ @Helen_OTUK Seeing all the latest available technology and aids and adaptations! #otalk
Adam Ferry @AdamFerry3
@ciderwithsophie @OTalk_ My point exactly. We all *DO* and not only supervision but to commissioners and budget holders. It's about creating the business case with sound clinical reasoning and budgetary awareness #OTalk
Becky Cooper @beckycooper___
@preston_jenny @AdamFerry3 That's a good point - I guess if they are going to be investing time/money then they would want to be assured the equipment would be suitable #OTalk
Margaret Spencer @margaretOT360
I think I think much more active rather than a passive relationship. Need to know what’s in it for my clients #otalk
OTalk @OTalk_
RT @CommunityLD_OT: @AdamFerry3 @OTalk_ @Helen_OTUK Seeing all the latest available technology and aids and adaptations! #otalk
Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny
@beckycooper___ @AdamFerry3 Definitely @beckycooper___ The Assistant Practitioner within my team knows more about equipment than I could ever dream #OTalk
Hannah Silcock @Scrumpess
@AdamFerry3 #otalk I think an individuals mindset is half of the battle! If you are prepared to go the extra mile and really push it... my personal experience of that with procurement is it can be a real battle! Even when creating a positive change for the patient and cost saving
Adam Ferry @AdamFerry3
@beckycooper___ Why do you think they want to come and demo to you? Sell loads of kit or tap into your expert knowledge that might influence future changes and design?? #OTalk
Mike OT Student @A5COMICS
@beckycooper___ @AdamFerry3 #otalk Working as a healthcare assistant alongside my studies, i have seen that the purchase of more more expensive equipment does not always meet the requirements of the client, and would be better to be more needs lead.
Becky Cooper @beckycooper___
@preston_jenny @AdamFerry3 Haha, brilliant - thank you for the vote of confidence 😀 #OTalk
Nabachwa LL @NabachwaOT
@OTalk_ @Helen_OTUK @AdamFerry3 Hello, evening everyone. I’m lurking for now, hoping to learn more about equipment after seeing how much it makes a difference to people’s lives on my Reablement placement. Also looking to make it to more exhibitions soon. #OTalk
Margaret Spencer @margaretOT360
Both, they need us as much as we need them. Much more collaborative than it used to be #otalk
Becky Cooper @beckycooper___
@AdamFerry3 Would hope the latter option as we can provide valuable information to shape the further development of their product... I'm sure there's an element of sales as it's business? Starting to see conferences as more of a two way 'learning' street, lots to learn from eachother #OTalk
Adam Ferry @AdamFerry3
@margaretOT360 Completely agree - as long as we understand the collaboration and acknowledge our skills and feedback are in high demand. Not something always drummed into NHS OTs #OTalk

Becky Cooper @beckycooper___
@A5COMICS @AdamFerry3 That's interesting - would you say more in the way of moving and handling type equipment? Or others? #OTalk
Becky Cooper @beckycooper___
@NabachwaOT @OTalk_ @Helen_OTUK @AdamFerry3 Good luck on your placement!! Sounds interesting #OTalk
Becky Cooper @beckycooper___
@AdamFerry3 @margaretOT360 Love this point - think there is a tendency to attend conference to see what is on offer, but how about what WE can offer.. #OTalk
Adam Ferry @AdamFerry3
Following an interaction with a manufacturer @TheOTShow 2017 I discussed some minor modifications that would make the item viable as a stock JELS item as cheaper than current. Wouldn't have done this before I worked into the private sector too #OTalk
Sophie is my name. @ciderwithsophie
@AdamFerry3 @OTalk_ I've never been to a conference or #OTshow *Hangs head in shame* but now feel like we really should be encouraging this as an example/task for developing clinical reasoning. Now putting it on my objective list for a reason I should go to #OTshow this year ;) #OTalk
Sophie is my name. @ciderwithsophie
@AdamFerry3 @OTalk_ Can't believe I've never looked at it like this before..! #OTalk
Adam Ferry @AdamFerry3
@beckycooper___ @margaretOT360 Exactly! #OTalk
Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny
@AdamFerry3 @TheOTShow There’s also a real opportunity to discuss potential research collaborations too. We had an interesting discussion about this recently on #OTalk @LynneGoodacre @hooper_ek @NikkiDResearch
Margaret Spencer @margaretOT360
RT @AdamFerry3: @beckycooper___ @margaretOT360 Exactly! #OTalk
Becky Cooper @beckycooper___
@AdamFerry3 @TheOTShow Do you mind me asking, what was it about working within the private sector that gave you the idea to do this? Interested to know whether it was experienced-based, different ways of working, different availability, etc? #OTalk

Becky Cooper @beckycooper___
@A5COMICS @AdamFerry3 Wow, the future of technology sounds interesting! On the same sort of wavelength, I was reading an article the other day about a possible future for robotic pet therapy!! #OTalk
Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny
@beckycooper___ @AdamFerry3 @TheOTShow I wonder if it is more about experience. I’m never worked in the private sector but have experience of commissioning and influencing policy which has given me the confidence #OTalk
Adam Ferry @AdamFerry3
@beckycooper___ @TheOTShow I think I just always considered myself restircted to what I was told was available (applying FACS/Care Act critical criteria). Never considered that I could proactively find something better, even if more expensive, and present on LT gains etc. #OTalk
Adam Ferry @AdamFerry3
#OTalk So what do exhibitors want from us/exhibitions and do we offer it actively enough? @TheOTShow
Adam Ferry @AdamFerry3
@preston_jenny @beckycooper___ @TheOTShow I think you're probably right, it may be more about role rather than sector. Think NHS hadnt provided me with the platform though at that stage to feel 'active' #OTalk
Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny
@AdamFerry3 @TheOTShow I think it is about finding the right balance. Collaboration is key as has been highlighted previously tonight #OTalk
Hannah Silcock @Scrumpess
@beckycooper___ @AdamFerry3 @TheOTShow #otalk my experience of working in private sector is that you feel less restricted, so you embrace opportunities of talking to reps/getting them in to your workplace with their products/talking to them about changes as you don't feel you are wasting their time due to budgets
OTalk @OTalk_
#OTalk final 5 minute warning! Last minute thoughts? Take home actions?
Margaret Spencer @margaretOT360
They want to network, be challenged, look at their product from different points of view. Alternative markets for their products etc etc. I would say no, OTs are the worst for hiding their lights #otalk
Adam Ferry @AdamFerry3
@ciderwithsophie @margaretOT360 @OTalk_ There are letters on the @TheOTShow website which help you to build a case to attend #OTalk

Hannah Silcock @Scrumpess
@AdamFerry3 @preston_jenny @beckycooper___ @TheOTShow I would agree with that. I felt my role in the private sector provided more insight in to commissioning than I feel I get in my NHS role #otalk
Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny
@Scrumpess @beckycooper___ @AdamFerry3 @TheOTShow Reflecting on tonight’s chat It sounds as if we might have a little bit more flexibility within the NHS/Social Care in Scotland #OTalk
Margaret Spencer @margaretOT360
Promote OT we have so much knowledge and skills that exhibitors really want to know about #otalk
Adam Ferry @AdamFerry3
#OTalk @TheOTShow Although this talk is coming to an end I would love to know what your 'perfect exhibition' would look like. What would be there, what format etc to provide you and the exhibitor with the highest quality interaction.
Becky Cooper @beckycooper___
@AdamFerry3 @TheOTShow A two way street, we can both learn from each other. Reflecting on conferences I have attended, I feel I could have been more active in discussions especially with offering feedback on equipment and suitability to client group - will do from now on! #OTalk
Colin P G Jones @colinpgjones
@AdamFerry3 @TheOTShow Feedback, as well as business. Some times little problems which we can have small solutions which make a big impact #OTalk
Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny
@OTalk_ Take home for me is to be much more strategic and maximise the opportunities at the next exhibition I attend #OTalk
Colin P G Jones @colinpgjones
@OTalk_ Make sure I have booked in for this up and coming OT show #OTalk
Hannah Silcock @Scrumpess
@preston_jenny @beckycooper___ @AdamFerry3 @TheOTShow That may be, or maybe the NHS system and structures leads to more confidence being needed when you are not necesarily considered to be in the right hierarchial position. Private sector feels like the walls aren't as high #otalk
Margaret Spencer @margaretOT360
Something experiential, a short 15min informative relevant ‘teaching slot’. Explanation of how the product adds quality to lives #otalk
Mike OT Student @A5COMICS
#otalk Looking forward to the OTShow in November as i move into my second year, build on my experiences and be excited for the future.

Becky Cooper @beckycooper___
@AdamFerry3 @TheOTShow Relevant exhibitions for client group. I love interaction so being able to touch/try the equipment or see it in action. Suitable seminars are a yes for me. Maybe an activity to encourage networking? Space between exhibitions also!! #OTalk
