In this episode, Kate Silvy, Saltwater OT joins Chanelle Olivier to explore how experience across hospital, rehab, and community settings shapes better AT decisions.

Kate shares how practical reasoning, empathy, and creativity help OTs deliver real outcomes for clients — even within complex systems like the NDIS and aged care.

Key topics include:

◑ Translating hospital and rehab experience into community-based practice

◑ Functional reasoning beyond standardised assessments

◑ Low-cost, high-impact AT that improves independence

◑ Helping clients accept AT through the “plant the seed” approach

◑ Navigating mainstream vs assistive technology classifications
