Throughout my blog, I'm sure you can understand that I am incredibly passionate about the support required by OT's for tertiary students looking to return to study after trauma. Looking at the facts, 10.5% of New Zealanders have potential needs that there simply isn't any current funding or facilities to meet. To me, this seems like a real injustice based on the fact that the vast majority of these people are striving to further themselves and add value to the kiwi workforce and economy. There is an inexplicable inconsistency between the funding provided to those currently employed and students, the gap urgently needs to be closed.
As outlined by ACC, working can often aid recovery. Stimulated people are more motivated, and a desire to succeed in university study having overcome adverse circumstances could well shine posative influence through to other factors of life.
I hope my facts and opinions, much of which have been based on personal experience encourage you to think about the issues I have presented in ultimately making a step to a more supportive, holistic and beneficial relationship between post-trauma student looking to return to study.
Thank-you all for following
