A fantastic presentation from Helen Jennings, RCOT Pain clinical form lead this morning at the #occupationaltherapy & #substanceuse network. Looking at commonalities between #pain & #addiction. #Compassion, #holistic care & seeing the person, hearing the story.

'...participation in occupation-based activities increases perceptions of self-efficacy among adolescents with SUDs' - an integral element of #recovery, especially regarding volition or 'motivation' to change #occupationaltherapy #addiction #substanceuse red.library.usd.edu/ot-capstone/13…


A qualitative meta-synthesis of coping mechanisms as part of #recovery included: seeking social support, psychological coping strategies, spiritual experiences, professional interventions, & enhancement of awareness. ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…

Calling Forensic OT’s B6 & above with 2+ years’ experience to participate in my research project for MSc advanced OT. In the absence of current guidance, I'm interested in your perceptions of your role in community integration. Do ask any questions &/or retweet #ForensicOT

Thank you to all the hard work from @RCOTWalesRegion bringing together a great event at USW yesterday. I feel better informed & better able to join and articulate the conversation around #EBD It was great sensing the real community between #occupationaltherapy educators Wales too

Just met with a passionate & highly person-centred #occupationaltherapist from #NewYork in a cheeky cultural exchange around #OT & #substanceuse practice. Great to hear others championing leisure as pre-vocational skills intervention, too! #addiction #recovery @ProjectRenewal

There’s been a huge amount of debate and discussion in recent years about #neurodiversity. In our new factsheet we explore what it is and why it matters when we’re thinking about how to reduce #alcoholharm: alcoholchange.org.uk/alcohol-facts/…

'Substance use is both a cause and outcome of occupational injustice.' @fisheraddiction says OTs can be part of the solution. We must help shift the 'occupational perspective' to reframe substance use in a way that challenges stigma and promotes justice. #RCOT2024


Cheers @theRCOT for the opportunity to share my thoughts and experience this morning around #occupationaltherapy & #substanceuse
