Happy OT week 🎉Forever grateful for this career & the beautiful children & families that I’ve crossed paths with over the years. Sharing one of the best emails that I’ve ever received, showing the power of OT. Parents/ carers continue to be my greatest inspiration! #OTWeek2024

Almost a decade ago(!) @RachelGebers & I worked in a rural hospital in South Africa & I’ve just stumbled across the blog we kept-so many beautiful themes still relevant, like this one about finding courage to face the pain/grief that comes with empathy

Results confirm what we have heard over & over - we need to support caregiver mental health, provide family centred care that is joined up & provide clear information free from complex medical terminology @m_heys @PhillHarniess @io_vassiliadou @hannahkuper1 @CallyTann @scyps
