Ready for question 2.What networks and collaborations are important to cultivate to underpin and facilitate a culture of research? #OTalk
Gillian Ward @DrGillianWard
So easy to do though #Otalk
Dr Gemma Wells @GemmaOTPhD
@preston_jenny I agree, and part of that support needs to be reflecting back what individuals can bring to the research table, regardless of their previous level of experience #OTalk
Gillian Ward @DrGillianWard
and keeping them engaged too? #Otalk
#OTalk @OTalk_
Q2 folks #OTalk
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
@DrGillianWard 1. Any researchers or experts within interested area of research will be good people to network. 2. Collaborations- service users are definitely important! #otalk
Jo Watson @JoWatson22
Very easy- why is that? do we somehow not give this aspect of our professional role the same importance as face-to-face contact with the folk we work with? #OTalk

#OTalk Research is a great place to start! My personal networks are formed from within and outwith the profession. I have quite deliberately sought out research peers and mentors that I feel comfortable with, who will challenge me and encourage me.
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
@JoWatson22 sometimes it's not just face to face, though. Like the autism book I just worked in, checking in and meeting up with potential collaborators from time to time is also important, if they are not close by. #otalk
Jo Watson @JoWatson22
what do you think might encourage more OTs to take the plunge and engage with CAHPR hubs @lezeki? #OTalk
Dr Gemma Wells @GemmaOTPhD
@DrGillianWard I’ve found it helps to have peers at various stages of engagement in research - everyone has something to offer, regardless of how far through they are #OTalk

Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
@andy83g @OTalk_ I would go broader. If your research can have bigger impact, definitely want to invest going to WFOT and find potential collaborators across the globe. #otalk

Is it possible that we might not give research the same attention as it can feel like it is harder than some of the more familiar aspects of our roles? There are many thinks in our roles that feel challenging at first but we need to persevere #OTalk

Could networking help with this? #Otalk
Alex Smith @YmchwilStroc
@LelanieBrewer Research time could be written into contracts? #OTalk
Jo Watson @JoWatson22
RT @DrGillianWard: Could networking help with this? #Otalk
Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny
So do we need to do some more work with managers to help them understand how research can support with targets? #OTalk
Gillian Ward @DrGillianWard
Do you mean job descriptions, or service contracts? #Otalk
Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny
@YmchwilStroc @LelanieBrewer Brilliant idea @YmchwilStroc #OTalk
Jo Watson @JoWatson22
so maybe not just a network for those engaged or wishing to engage more with research, but also for service managers to help them find ways to support their staff? #OTalk
Gillian Ward @DrGillianWard
Question 3.Thinking on a national level, what would a vibrant research community look like and feel like to be part of? #OTalk
Dr Gemma Wells @GemmaOTPhD
@DrGillianWard What about sharing the load amongst a group, perhaps allocating different roles in the research process to different people? May not seem quite so overwhelming then #OTalk
#OTalk @OTalk_
Time is a hard one, it comes up a lot in coaching as a reason for not doing things. Perhaps time isn’t the issue it’s maybe what we prioritise, there never will be enough time #OTalk
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
@YmchwilStroc @LelanieBrewer It depends, some clinical jobs will be difficult to do so. Like mine... many therapists already have to deal with weekly reports in my setting. They have little to no time for research. Any research time will probably be on the side. #otalk
Gillian Ward @DrGillianWard
That's a great idea! #Otalk
Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny
Is there something here about speculating to accumulate, we are all busy clinically but are we doing the right things in the right way to gain maximum benefit for our clients #Otalk
Alex Smith @YmchwilStroc
@DrGillianWard I work mostly with medics/ medical academics and they are increasingly having research sessions incorporated into their contracts so I guess that would be our job descriptions #OTalk
