My first placement is in rheumatology. Is anyone able to point me in the direction of any resources that actually centres on peoples’ own lived experiences, so that I can learn more about the conditions involved (arthritis, Ehlers Danlos etc)? OT_Expert DisruptOT AbleOTUK

Okay here goes... OT can/should/needs to be many things but I think we're in denial if we think fluffy quotes about OT ensuring people do more than survive is truly reflective of the realities of the profession and its role in our broken health and social care systems #OTWeek23
