Really enjoyed my first ‘thinking partnership’ meeting today with a occupational therapist from the US, as part of the ElizabethCassonTrust Leadership Programme. Looking forward to the first workshop next week, exploring my values & beliefs & how they influence my leadership style 💭

Dr Ellen Adomako from Health & Social Care presenting her PhD research at the #cotssmh conference today Serwaa. A participatory study that explored the continuing tension of balancing therapeutic intensions with risk minimisation in an acute mental health environment

Great work Anna Pettican (she/her)

An important paper about a whole systems approach involving occupational therapy, from Anna Pettican (she/her)

New open access paper in BMC Public Health: Exploring learning from designing and implementing a whole systems approach involving occupational therapy.

Delighted with this outcome for our apprenticeships!

Couldn’t agree more with this statement! Too many people (in salaried positions) use endless excuses to justify not paying service users for involvement. While I’ve never undertaken a funded project myself where it hasn’t been possible to find a way of doing so… #FauxProduction

A great day at another of our Occupational Science & Therapy at Essex writing retreats today. People working on a range of projects, including doctoral theses, practice placement assessment process revisions, and research manuscripts. Good to be writing together using the Rowena Murray method
