Occupational Therapist
The Challenge
Covid-19 has significantly changed how I work, when the restrictions happened we were no longer able to have face to face contact with clients. I have being using video appointments to deliver a version of the re-motivation process to a service user.
The Change
The service user I'm working with has a mild learning disability, low mood and is socially isolated. During the Covid I sourced her wool from a charity and her and I have been having weekly video appointments. Where she crochets and I knit.
The Impact
In this weekly appointment she takes part in an occupation which is meaningful to her, this is lifting her mood and giving her weekly social contact. The plan is to both join an online knitting group, and progress to a face to face group.
