@WeAHPs Hello from #Wolverhampton #WeAHPs
Helen Foster @HelenFosterPhys
@WeAHPs That we're super cheery and massage everyone #weAHPs
Helen Foster @HelenFosterPhys
@UltrasoundPG I still have quite a few patient's who remember it that way when I mention my "green" colleagues #weahps
Vienna-Jaye @VJayeBurchell
@WeAHPs That #orthoptists only work with children, or that we’re opticians! 👀 #WeAHPs
Holly Dempsey RD @HollyDempseyRD
@WeAHPs Not a misconception as such but the more I learn about the many “coats” of OT’s the more I think they are just a fantastic workforce. #WeAHPs
Helen Foster @HelenFosterPhys
@TPRochie @WeAHPs So many things like that - i am one and still don't think I know the full scope. Let alone of any other profession! #weahps
Vienna-Jaye @VJayeBurchell
@WeAHPs #HelloMyNameIs Vienna-Jaye an #Orthoptist working at @DCHFT where I was seen as a patient about 20 years ago! 👋 👀👓 #WeAHPs
Helen Foster @HelenFosterPhys
@WeAHPs Partly history - I think our professions have grown so much from where they first came from. Media representation is the other aspect #weahps

@WeAHPs Hello from South Cumbria #WeAHPs
Vienna-Jaye @VJayeBurchell
@WeAHPs If people have never needed an #Orthoptist generally they’ve never heard of the profession...promoting our diverse range of extended roles will help! We do so much more than patching! 👀 #WeAHPs

@WeAHPs I have only worked with a small number of other AHPs. I must admit I know very little and have limited access to learn about the fantastic professionals that are out there. #WeAHPs
Helen Foster @HelenFosterPhys
@WeAHPs Poor awareness of the best people and the services available - limits referral options and potential to access those services #WeAHPs
Helen Foster @HelenFosterPhys
@WeAHPs Also patient perceptions like, "How could a ... help me?!" and so not following through with appointments #WeAHPs
Helen Foster @HelenFosterPhys
@WeAHPs I think quite often too the expectations we then feed in patient's about other professions e.g. our local GPs quite often refer patients to us and mention acupuncture to the patients - they then get a real shock when we start talking about movement #WeAHPs
Anna @AnnaLouise85
@WeAHPs I think Podiatry misconceptions come from the fact that we do indeed cut toenails 😂 but it's hard to communicate/promote what else we do because of a lack resources. #WeAHPs

We need to celebrate the differences of the Super14 and join the voices when needed to be acknowledged in the ‘numbers game’ #WeAHPs #HeadofAHPs https://t.co/KUdez8QtuK
