CPD for OTs - Working with people with Multiple Sclerosis
The Your OT Tutor Journal Club - The Journal Club you've been waiting for!
The details you need to know...
1. What topic will we discuss?
We'll be covering the OT role when working with people with Multiple Sclerosis. We'll be discussing well known clinical practice guidelines covering management of common symptoms such as fatigue, cognition, pain and more. We'll cover what the recommendations are, how strong the evidence is, and what we should be doing in our everyday practice when working with people with MS.
2. When will the live sessions run?
There will be two live sessions this month, both on Monday the 25th of November. The first session will be at 9.30AM and the second at 12PM – AEST (Queensland time!). If you can’t make the live session, it will be recorded!
3. Do I have to do lots of prep and critique the article beforehand?
No, you don't!! Extensive preparation and a focus on research critiquing is often a barrier to participating in a journal club, so that's not how we roll at Your OT Tutor. The preparation is streamlined for you so you can read just the important parts of the article to start with, or if you do have the time and motivation, there are recommended resources for critiquing the article. If
you don't have time to do any prep, you can still come along - Clare will give you a summary of the points you need to know to be able to participate in the session, then you can go back and read the article in your own time.
4. Do I have to participate in live discussions?
Contributing to the discussion is encouraged but not compulsory. Live journal club sessions are usually a small group of OTs where the space is safe and non-judgemental - no such thing as a silly question! I understand juggling home and work life can be tricky, so you are welcome to join even if you have kids, pets, or spouses in the background - just a warning that sessions are recorded so keep your camera off if you have concerns about privacy. If you miss the live sessions, you can still participate via the online discussion board within the Learning Management System - we'd love to hear from you!
5. I'm still not sure this is for me...
That's completely fine and understandable - journal clubs aren't for everyone! But that's why I've put together an option to 'try-before-you-buy' with FREE access to a trial session on the topic of The OT Role in Sleep Management. Test it out and see if the format works for you. Click on the links

What have other OTs said about Your OT Tutor CPD?
Feedback on the online course: The OT Guide to Completing a Functional Capacity Assessment:
I personally found this course as an amazing clinical CPD
course! For a clinician currently working in this practice setting. The content
was easy to follow and very comprehensive. I found the course extremely
beneficial in further developing my skills in FCA writing. The course materials
and resources offered will further develop my skills in FCA information
gathering, writing and collaboration with relevant stakeholders throughout the
process. The self-paced online platform was easy to navigate, informative and
positive allowing me to consolidate my learning throughout course progression.
By far one of the best online CPD content I have completed thus far as an
Occupational Therapist.
Feedback on the support and resources available through Your OT Tutor:
Clare was amazing at providing me with the information I needed. Not only she was incredibly approachable and replied to my email straight away, Clare also offered to schedule a phone call at a time that suited my busy schedule to discuss my query further. In a time when things were getting overwhelming for me, Clare's support was truly invaluable. Her dedication to providing occupational therapists like myself with professional resources, updates on essential OT practice topics, and advice on supervision and mentoring is precious and truly admirable.
Big thank you Clare for all the support and the massive effort she puts into making Your OT Tutor which is so helpful for us OTs, regardless of our experience levels. Keep up the fantastic work, Clare! You are making a real difference.
