Lauren Walker of RCOT on why housing is every occupational therapist’s business.
An online webinar for Occupational Therapists and other professionals covering Building Health into Homes: Why Housing is Every OTs Business. Provided and hosted by Closomat with Lauren Walker, Professional Practice Manager at The Royal College of Occupational Therapists (RCOT).
Every person that an Occupational Therapist works with lives somewhere, even if that isn’t a home, yet housing is often viewed as something that only OTs in specialist and social care roles can influence. The “Building Health into Homes” webinar aims to challenge this assumption by demonstrating how OTs in all practice settings can help to improve people’s health outcomes by considering where they live.
