I have now been an occupational therapist for 2 years and I can honestly say its the most rewarding, exciting, brilliant job in the world.

My time as an international OT student in the UK was the most rewarding.. Really hope to find a job in the UK soon :)

it is the better profession of the world. I love it ♡♡♡

think I found my future job

Mesleğimizi harika tanıtmışsınız. Teşekkür ederiz. You introduced our profession wonderfully. We thank you.

Love this video and it confirmed my decision to go back to school to get my degree in OT!!!

The previous days, I was very confused in choosing medical technology or occupational therapy as my course for college, but by seeing this video, I was really touched and inspired to help other people change their lives, to connect with them and enjoy doing my job as an occupational therapist. Thank you for posting such a heart touching, informative, inspiring and beautiful video!

Accessing needs and finding solutions I like that

how amazing to be OT student..

Makes me proud to say I am one too!

If you want more information about becoming an OT, have a look at the "Study OT" section of our website, where you can find information on courses and universities and download our Careers Handbook.

@dungboy0 here's a few questions you should ask yourself, you say you like to get to know people, which is a good start in understanding them and what you can help them with. What about these? Do you enjoy helping people and solving problems? Are you patient, practical, creative and a good communicator? Do you want to help people optimise their quality of life? Have a look at our website to find out more about becoming an OT.

@stardustNmyhands1 Well....no such thing as a typical or normal day as each one is different, but lets give you last fridays.... open up the activity dept, do an initial assessment on a veteran with PTSD who has issues about going to the shops, wrote out treatment plan and used MOHOST as a base line assessment, interviewed another veteran with issues surrounding self esteem, write out treatment plan. accompany veteran on a one to one graded exposure, ran a group called mind gym,.........

Is it harder for men to break into this field? I am really interested in finding a career that is meaningful and helps others. Clearly becoming an OT would be great. I worry that I wouldn't be academic enough also.
