The OT Life

Welcome to Season 2 The OT Life - the careers podcast for occupation therapists. In Season 2 we’re talking about a book that’s being written by the wonderful occupational therapists here at Cygnet.  

The OT Life is all about helping other occupational therapists develop their career and, in turn, the people they care for. 

And Season 2 is the perfect place to chat with the people behind our book.

In the third episode of The OT Life, we talk about models of care - why are they important and what does it take to implement them?

In the second episode of The OT Life, we talk about senior leadership in Occupational Therapy. 

• What’s the typical status of Occupational Therapists in organisations? 
• Why should OTs be in senior leadership positions in organisations? 
• What does good senior leadership look like, and how does it impact organisations? 
• And what can OTs do to stand out in their organisations at senior level?

In the first episode of The OT Life, we talk about the misconceptions of Occupational Therapists in health and social care. Don’t get us wrong, we love barbecues and bingo. They’re meaningful activities that help the lives of the people we care for, but we believe Occupational Therapy is so much more.

Emma Crowcroft, Director of Occupational Therapy for the Midlands & Wales, chats with fellow Occupational Therapists Rebecca Griffiths and Rebecca Boothby. 

Emma, Becky G, and Becky B chat misconceptions of Occupational Therapy, what being an OT is really about and what an OT needs to do to help the people we care for this decade. They also share some tips about creating an OT identity in organisations and how OTs can raise their profile in their organisation.
