OT Tricks (of the Trade) & Treats



The "OT Tricks of the Trade & Treats" event, held over lunchtime on Halloween, saw over 100 Providence Health Care staff, students, patients, and family members drop by to meet the OTs of St Paul's, pick up some goodies (courtesy of CAOT-BC), and learn more about occupational therapy. With fun, interactive stations, including "You OT to Know This" (cognitive challenges), "Can you HANDle it?" (featuring OTs from Hand Therapy), "Sock Aid to Me!" (adaptive aid dressing challenges), and "Go-OTlocks and the Three Chairs" (ROHO seating demonstrations), the event highlighted the many ways that occupational therapists can positively contribute to patient care and outcomes in an acute care setting.

Kudos to Andrea Smith and the other occupational therapists of St. Paul's for putting together a great event!
