Clinical Confidence Through Clinical Competence Part 1

EPISODE SUMMARY: In this episode of NOGGINS & NEURONS: Brain Injury Recovery Simplified, Deb talks with occupational therapist, Andrea Reed about gaining clinical confidence through clinical competence. We discuss: Learning by hosting a clinical student – what the experience is like from a clinician’s and FW Coordinator’s viewpoint - finding a good fit for site and student Role of the environment and workplace culture in facilitating or hindering growth How the Covid -19 pandemic changed clinical learning opportunities and experiences Selecting appropriate interventions with confidence The effects of time “management” on recovery, clinical performance, and outcomes Moving away from “shiny object syndrome” to focus on one thing and learning it well for clinical competence and client carryover Plateau thinking, breaking out of a rigid mindset, and bringing “home programs” to rehab for wise use of the other hours in rehab to set clients up for success. The service gap that occurs when people leave rehab Healing is a journey and recovery time varies for each person Moving towards a collaborative practice model and benefits of simplicity in practice Clinician inspiration, learning curves and bringing meaning into our practices LINKS TO OTHER IMPORTANT INFORMATION: Pre-Print All Star “Pete” Trading Card New York State Continuing Education Presentation JOURNAL ARTICLES: Evidence-Based Practice Profiles of Physiotherapists Transitioning into the Workforce: A study of two cohorts Transitioning From Occupational Therapy Student To Practicing Occupational Therapist: First Year of Employment (Abstract only) Enhancing Occupational Therapists’ Confidence and Professional Development Through a Community of Practice Scholars (Abstract only) APPLY TO BE A PODCAST GUEST As always, we want to hear from you!
