Hi,
I work in the UK in the South Coast - and since qualifying in 2010 have nearly exclusively worked with neurology - brain injury, stroke and neurological conditons. I love this field of work as it is a challenge and each individuals presentation varies - but often we can really help as OT's in seeing positive improvements in function and ability to engage in meaningful activities with increased automomy... but conversely when someone has a deteriorating condition we can help set the environement to support them continue to engage even as their abilities decline.
I am looking forward to hearing what others are up to and engaging in conversations with other OT's, as I now work in indepedent pratice - which I love, but which means I don't work along other OT's very often these days!

Hello there Danni - welcome to the Neurology Circle! You sound like you have HEAPS of neuro experience, so I look forward to sharing skills and knowledge here. I agree with your point about the challenge (/complexity) of neuro being a big draw. And the variety of both remedial and compensatory work (especially neurodegenerative conditions) adds to this. I hope this space can be a place for you to connect better with other OTs in your more independent role.
