WM ADASS launched its Principal Occupational Therapists Network in 2018. The Network includes adult social care Principal Occupational Therapists or equivalent in our 14 councils along with representation from key partners.
A transcript of this video is available.
The virtual Network meets bi-monthly to support the West Midlands Improvement Programme providing information, improvement and best practice sharing for activists across the region. It also:
- provides leadership for POT in local authorities, raising and maintaining a high profile for the profession and what it contributes to social care
- participates in transforming social care delivery through a wider recognition of the potential of OT
- shares best practice, learning and constructive challenge to support the best outcomes for our communities.
The Network is sponsored by Pete Fahy, Director of Adult Services, Coventry City Council, co-chaired by Andrea Gronow at Dudley Council and Emma Banks, Shropshire Council, and managed by Lynn Bowers , Workforce Lead, WM ADASS.
