Careers:Occupational Therapists

Description:

Occupational therapists play a critical role in helping people of all ages to overcome the effects of disability caused by illness, ageing or an accident, so that they can continue their everyday occupations. By entering onto our three-year course, you’re taking the first step towards a rewarding profession that focuses on developing extraordinary partnerships with people and making lasting, positive changes to their lives. As well as a solid academic grounding through a varied and interactive programme, you’ll be given early patient contact and access to superb facilities, including our anatomy room and assistive technology suite. Our course also focuses on the collaborative skills you will need to succeed in your career, with several modules being taken alongside physiotherapy and speech and language students.

Once you graduate, you’ll be making a real difference, giving individuals a renewed sense of purpose, opening up new horizons, and changing the way they feel about the future. You’ll enjoy a broad range of career opportunities once you graduate, and the skills you will develop lend themselves to new emerging roles, such as working with asylum seekers or refugees, the police or the fire services.
