    As OT Week draws to a close I would like thank each of the amazing occupational therapists working with us at Prudence OT - Medico Legal . Lead by Principal OT, Christine Eloff, our team is one of the country’s leading providers of medico legal assessment and reporting. As I’ve often said here, occupational therapists and other allied health specialist are unsung heroes throughout our community. Guiding, and providing care, solutions and support to people in need. It is commonly known that occupational therapists play a leading role in assisting people who have a physical injury, or disability. It is probably not so well known that OTs can pay play an important role in assisting people with psychological injury. We had the recent honour of having our Senior OT, Antonette Owen present a paper at the Australian Lawyers Alliance 2024 National Conference on the important role occupational therapists play in assisting those with psychological injury.

    On Day 3 of National Conference 2024, Dr Rodney Marsh and Dr Marc Walden opened the day with an insightful discussion on the legal complexities surrounding functional neurological disorders. Tom Ballantyne followed with a session on NDIS and compensation recovery. Bridie Walsh presented on the gender pain gap, reviewing the Victorian inquiry into pain and its implications nationally. Antonette Owen highlighted the unique role of occupational therapy medicolegal assessments for psychological injuries. Thank you to these speakers for their contributions to this year's National Conference and their ongoing support of the ALA. ⚖ #NatConference24 #ALA #WA #Fremantle #ALAevents

    Throughout my legal career, the evidence from an Occupational Therapist has been crucial in the majority of the injury claims that I’ve run, so I appreciated hearing tonight from two very experienced OTs thanks to Prudence OT - Medico Legal. Made possible, and highly enjoyable, thanks to Legal Funding Australia. On top of this, it was a good excuse to catchup with my dear friend and brilliant med neg lawyer, Wendy Nixson, as well as connect with and/or meet new colleagues (Candice Heisler, Sarah Fleming, Shelby, Henry Darvas & Lauren). A great event, thank you Rachel C., Christine Mercer, Vince & Peter. Looking forward to the next one.
