Description
This is a UK-based Occupational Therapy podcast expressing personal clinical experiences, views, and aspirations for occupational therapy practice in the UK. It is aimed to help OT students and clinicians navigate their way through their clinical practice involving occupational therapy. When it gets controversial, it is Rant Involving Occupational Therapy. When I talk about foundation OT knowledge, it is Relevant Information about OT. When I celebrate amazing people I encounter, It's Rollicking Individuals of OT. If I 'yap' about anything I fancy, then, it is Random Information about Ordinary things. Whatever the theme, this OT conversation is a RIOT Conversation. Enjoy - HAO
