This is truly what it’s all about! ‘The OT gave me little hints and tips’ was my favourite bit, and just goes to show that it can be those little things that can have the greatest impact! #OTweek24 💚 #powerofOT 🔋
‘OTs have helped me live my new life’. The most powerful statement of this Occupational Therapy event at the Mater hospital. One of our incredible service users describing her new life after a farming accident. Great celebrations of Occupational Therapy Week 2024 @clionamccarney

"#FallsPrevention is often associated with risk-averse attitude whereby people are discouraged from mobilising so they do not fall, consequently becoming deconditioned, increasing fall risk"
