#2 Sleep, Mental Health, and OT
Amanda Carroll, MS, PhD, OTR/L
Rating: 4.8 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Nearly one third of people experience sleep disturbances. And, about 23% of adults experience mental health illness. Emerging research suggests these are more intertwined than we realize. What this means for OT is profound. Sleep interventions are one of the most powerful tools we have to impact mental health. In this course we’ll zoom in on one diagnosis: anxiety.

#4 Grip Strength as a Vital Sign
Gabriella Francis, OTR/L, ATC, CEO
Rating: 4.88 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

However you’re thinking about grip strength, I’m betting it isn’t broadly enough. Grip strength is NOT just about hand strength. It is NOT just an indicator of upper body strength. It is NOT even just about overall strength. The article we are reviewing today urges us to consider grip strength as a vital sign.

#5 OT and Value-Based Care
Dana Strauss, PT, DPT
Rating: 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We’ve all known for a while that the current fee-for-service models that most occupational therapists operate under are bad for patients and bad for healthcare. Why? Because it incentives volume of services over quality of services. 

If you’re like me, you may feel like you’ve been waiting for years for value based care to really take hold in the United States. But, this new future has felt like a distant reality. Our guest today, Dana Strauss, PT, DPT, sees things from a different vantage point. As she’ll share in this episode, the future is actually here, it is just not evenly distributed.

#6 Chronic Stroke Rehab
Christopher Gaskins, PhD, OTR/L, CSRS
Rating: 4.6 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Stroke rehab is an area where we have some of the most abundant research to draw on as occupational therapists. But, this can also make it feel difficult to synthesize it all into the right actions steps for your clients. 

In this Ask Me Anything style episode, we will be answering your questions on chronic stroke assessment, goal-setting and treatment. We’ll have a full clinical decision support for you reference during the episode, and then plan to keep it up to date.

#7 Pediatric Sleep and OT
Amy Gore Hartman, PhD, OTR/L
Rating: 4.71 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Between 20-30% of typically developing children experience sleep difficulty in childhood. The percentage of neurodiverse children  with considerable sleep problems is even more staggering at 40-80%.  On one hand, it is sobering to consider the impacts of sleep difficulties on children and adolescents. Improving sleep is one of the most powerful levers that occupational therapy professionals can address with our clients.

Rachel Egan, OTR/L. MS. CHT, COMT-UE

#10 OT and Prevention
Alyson Stover, MOT, JD, OTR/L, BCP
Rating: 4.6 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Far too often, people are not referred to occupational therapy until their disease course has progressed to a level of high complexity.

But, what if we could start seeing our clients sooner? 

Ideally, we receive the referral at the first sign of trouble. In some cases, we could prevent the full expression of a condition. In other cases, we could work with the client so their condition presents in a less severe way. These services are low cost and high impact.
