Question: Whatโs the difference between Occupational Therapy (OT) and Physical Therapy (PT)? Both are vital in healthcare, but each has its own unique approach to rehabilitation and wellness. ๐นOT focuses on helping patients perform daily life activities, adapting to environments, and using creative solutions for better living. ๐นPT concentrates on physical rehabilitation, improving strength, and mobility. In our two-year Occupational Therapy Assistant (OTA) program, you will learn to assist individuals of all ages to overcome physical and cognitive challenges, enabling them to live fuller, more independent lives. Whether youโre assisting a child with developmental disabilities or helping an elderly patient adapt to their home environment, your role as an OTA is about making meaningful impacts every day.

Occupational Therapy Career Close-Up On a personal note....Chris, our guest, is my niece-in-law ๐ I had the privilege of watching her journey play out. And when, in October, she shared some surprises as a new OT in a hospital setting, I thought - my listeners and teens need to hear this! Highlights: -Job shadowing is critical for deciding between speech therapy, physical therapy, and occupational therapy. -OT school prerequisites vary, so students must research the requirements for each school they are considering. -OT doctoral programs are very intensive three-year programs with no summers off. -Finding a work-life balance and not taking work home is an adjustment for new occupational therapists. https://buff.ly/3PZwpqb

Helping people in Devon live safely and independently. Hear from Sophie about their role as an Occupational Therapist. To find out more, follow the link below. https://lnkd.in/eUk5VaK5 #FlexibleByDefault [Video description: The first image has the words 'Helping people in Devon...' in the centre of the page in white on a dark green background. In the corners of the page is a paint brush style design in white. The second slide has the words 'live safely and independently' in the same style. The final slide is Sophie talking about what they love most about the role: "Itโs really enjoyable to know you are making a difference to their lives. We can do things such as providing equipment that makes activities of daily living easier or we can recommend major adaptations to enable them to live safely and independently at home. Along with many more interventions that we do. I enjoy how varied the job role is, every case is different, every person is different. The job is really interesting, no day is the same; there is always something new to learn."]

๐ Exploring Tunnels in Occupational Therapy ๐๐ง Tunnels arenโt just for trains! In occupational therapy, tunnels are fantastic tools for childrenโs development. Letโs dive into how they benefit our little explorers: ๐Sensory Exploration: Crawling through tunnels provides a sensory-rich experience. The enclosed space stimulates touch, proprioception, and spatial awareness. ๐Motor Skills: Crawling helps strengthen core muscles, improve coordination, and enhance gross motor skills. Plus, itโs loads of fun! ๐Spatial Awareness: Tunnels challenge kids to navigate tight spaces, boosting their understanding of body position and movement. ๐Imagination: Tunnels transform into secret caves, wormholes, or magical passages. Encourage imaginative play! Activities with Tunnels: ๐ Obstacle Course: Set up an obstacle course with tunnels, pillows, and other props. Kids can crawl, climb, and explore. ๐ Hide-and-Seek: Hide toys or objects inside the tunnel. Kids love peeking in and discovering surprises! ๐ Storytime Adventures: Read stories about tunnels (like โThe Very Hungry Caterpillarโ). Then, let kids act out the journey through their own tunnel. ๐จ Decorate Your Tunnel: Use fabric, stickers, or glow-in-the-dark tape to personalize the tunnel. Let creativity flow! Remember, tunnels encourage movement, creativity, and social interaction. So, letโs tunnel our way to growth! ๐๐ง๐ #OccupationalTherapy #ChildDevelopment #Playtime #TunnelFun #OTLife

Pediatric occupational therapists play a vital role in helping children achieve functional tasks, from self-care to learning and day-to-day activities. One area where occupational therapists can work with children and families to facilitate function and ability is in riding a bicycle. With their expertise, children can learn the necessary skills and techniques to confidently ride a bike, which can improve their overall physical and mental well-being. When occupational therapy professionals work with children to achieve the functional task of riding a bicycle, they can help kids achieve independence with areas that are needed for bicycle riding: Core strength Motor planning Balance Sequencing Postural praxis Upper body/lower body disassociation Motivation Body awareness Visual convergence Visual scanning Coordination
