Brilliant debate from @DrAmarShah @Devon_NHSI @GeeMcLachlan & @ck4q on “Covid 19 has killed QI”. So many good arguements either side, @OTsoftley & I really recommend those at #Quality2020 watch it on catch up if you couldn’t watch live!

70% of 200 attendes said co-production has become more difficult during COVID19. We need to space for patients and service users to speak-up. @davidcmcnally @janemcgrath @cristin_lind @QualityForum #Quality2020

AHPs are the third largest workforce in the NHS. This #AHPsDay we want to say a huge thank you to AHPs across the NHS for all your hard work looking after our communities, especially at such a challenging time. 🙏

Attended a home visit this afternoon for an initial assessment. After an explanation of who occupational therapists are, and what we could potentially support with the reply was “my goodness, you shining angels”. *polishes halo*

Can we do better than calling someone a paranoid schizophrenic?

I'm drafting a blog/news peice on OTs who have caught covid19 and suffered and are still suffering with symptoms months after. Honestly its eye watering some of the stories I've heard from OT's and how its effected them. We ask so much from our health & social care staff – at Merthyr Tydfil, Wales
