“At the centre of everything I do is the question, ‘what does it feel like for that person, what do they need?’ Not what boxes should be ticked, but actually what do they need that will make their outcomes the best? How can they be supported to live the life they want to lead?” Watch Dan, a senior occupational therapist assistant, discuss his work, his own lived experience of being a carer, and how personalised care can be used to provide people care that is built around what matters to them. https://lnkd.in/eqFyX4Qw

📣 Today I want to highlight a recent blog post written by our new Occupational Therapist at WonderTree Child, Adolescent, and Family Practice, Kim Hanson. Kim's article summarizes for families her practice lens, and the valuable work that OTs can do to support neurodivergent youth achieve their goals. Give it a read and share! 🤗 https://lnkd.in/eyb3adwB

"When a person is no longer able to do an activity that they loved, Occupational Therapists can help explore possibilities, and suggest assistive tools and techniques to keep original interests alive." - Sandra Woods, #ArtDespitePain. https://lnkd.in/gsY7_gTE (in July/Aug OT Now Magazine) What I love about Sandra's sentiment are the words "POSSIBILITIES" and "ALIVE". As an OT, this is at the heart of why we do what we do - To keep our client's interests and passions alive and possible, no matter what challenges they face. What stories can you share about how you helped a client keep the possibilities alive?

Fulfilling President Lincoln’s Promise: Overcoming the Stigma of Veteran Healthcare I’m excited to present this year’s keynote at the Barbara Rider Colloquium at Western Michigan University. The VA Mission Statement: "To fulfill President Lincoln's promise to care for those who have served in our nation's military and for their families, caregivers, and survivors." Let’s look into the stigma associated with Veteran healthcare through the different lenses of Veterans, their families and caregivers, the public, and VHA employees. I will share Veteran experiences of VA healthcare. I will also share my own experience as a disabled combat Veteran while both receiving and providing Veteran healthcare in the private sector and in the VHA. We’ll explore the nature of Veteran healthcare stigma and its effect on Veteran healthcare access. We’ll discuss ways Occupational Therapy practitioners can combat Veteran healthcare stigma. I trust that in helping others understand the stigma, they will see the potential in today’s more inclusive, innovative, and mission-driven Veteran healthcare. There is hope that we will fulfill Lincoln’s promise. Where does Occupational Therapy fit in this hope for the future? Let’s find out. #VA #VHA #Veterans #VeteranHealthcare #OccupationalTherapy #WMU #AOTA
