Occupational Therapists have roles in returning professionals back to work after physical trauma, who's role is it to return tertiary students back to study? These students are our professionals of tomorrow and they're falling through the cracks!
This blog will look at my personal experience and how we as future Occupational Therapists can fill the gaps.
I like this topic and blog Rachael, good work! It probably only took 7 minutes to read - awesome. I like the colour scheme, although the font is a little small for my failing eyes. I would like to see some written ideas in this last post, and a few more references throughout the posts where they are missing. And to answer your question above, I don't think help should be provided after only physical trauma - the pressure and changes that come with study at tertiary level often exacerbate existing mental illness or can create it - anxiety, depression anyone?!
Thank-you, yes this is still a work in progress. I intend to now look at creating a service that for-fills this need now that I have made it known. I like your idea of incorporating a mental health service too, I will look into this however I don't want my topic to get too broad. Thanks for timing how long it took you to read,(an important factor in this blog being for an assignment)I will now know that any information I add is potentially going over the time limit.
