Amanda, of FOX Rehabilitation: "It was everything that OT is - meaningful and functional. I couldn't wait to help him plan and make this proposal a reality." Upgraded to OT+?

Bridging the Anatomy Lab to Clinic Gap - How can we make anatomy more 'functional' for OT students? (OT Circles discussion on The Occupational Therapy Hub)

Free Clinical Educators → Bridging the Anatomy Lab to Clinic Gap...

...How can we make anatomy more 'functional' for OT students? "I teach Gross Anatomy and Neuroanatomy to OTD students and I've been reflecting on the persistent challenge of translating classroom knowledge into clinical practice... They can identify structures perfectly in a lab setting, but that confidence often disappears when they need to perform surface palpation or apply functional anatomy to a living, moving patient. I'm curious to hear from the clinical educators in this group" - Casey. Connect here, or on-the-go, via The OT Hub app.
