Hello lovely OT twitter chums! I need to create a 'true false' OT quiz for 100 x yr 10 students for a 'heads & tails' game (hands on head for true, hands on bum for false) ....I'm being lazy & wondered if anyone could suggest some OT questions please?!

#SocialCareOT isnt just Reablement, rehab & intermediate care, or about supporting people out of hospital. We stop people from going into hospital & needing the #NHS, we reduce impact of long term conditions & age related decline, we keep people safe, well & thriving at home!

Sat in on our new CHC training today. Chuckled when someone asked if it was routine 2 consult OT 4 the mobility criteria & heard “no, they tend 2 contradict what we say by making suggestions on how 2 reduce the impact”. Sorry 4 our pesky strength based approach 🤣 #SocialCareOT

For the first time ever the adult social care sector has come together to develop the Workforce Strategy that it needs #ASCWorkforceStrategy Find out more at ascworkforcestrategy.co.uk

Aside from some great new roles, take alot at all the info about the many ways to apply. “How can we make this process easier for you”, more organisation need to be better at this, more open & accessible in recruitment 👏🏻

Lovely to see Kirstie not least that ElizabethCassonTrust offers the same inc letting candidates have the interview questions in advance. So if anyone is interested in becoming a trustee of a charity furthering OT we are currently advertising 😉 Info on the trust web page

Had a read of the 23/24 Professional Standards Authority HCPC report. Disappointing 2 see that they still havent got a handle on fitness 2 practise processes, leaving registrants stressed, unsupported & unable 2 work… & paying for the privilege. #SocialCareOT ➡️ professionalstandards.org.uk/docs/default-s…
