We had a lot of fun today, even in the rain! 🌧️ 🇨🇦
Day two of the Adaptive Mobility, Part 2: OT Driver Rehab Specialist Training workshop is wrapped up.
Today, we sharpened our DRS skills by exploring hand controls, the left foot accelerator, and spinner k***s. We used case studies to sharpen clinical reasoning skills and practice driver rehab training techniques.
All of the work we do prepares practitioners to be competent, confident Driver Rehab Specialists who can help clients with a variety of driver rehabilitation needs.
Seeing more fantastic OT practitioners start their journey as driver rehabilitation specialists, especially with this OT-specific pathway, is the best!
I can’t help but think about my own journey a few decades ago when I took the Take The Wheel training.
It thrills me to think about the adventure that lies ahead for each of these phenomenal OT Driver Rehabilitation Specialists.
I truly do believe that becoming an OT and working in this special area of practice is a calling.
It takes the right balance of objectivity, critical thinking, knowledge, compassion, and quite frankly, tenacity.
I am so proud of this group and all the amazing OTs before and after.
OTPs that address driving change lives!!
Keep going. You are making a big difference in the world.
If you’re interested in learning more or talking about setting your own goals with driving, I love connecting with OTs and talking about this.
No pressure, no obligation. Send me a message anytime.
