Hello!
I am coming into my one year mark as an OT. It has been an awesome learning experience – going to continuing education courses, applying what I’ve learned to my patients, and getting great results!
I can’t believe it’s been one year already! I am the only OT here right now- working with 6 other PTs. They have been a wonderful help to me this year.
It’s amazing to think back on how nervous I used to get thinking about treating people- especially when the schedule was busy! Now, I feel much more in a flow!
As part of my job- I also started conditioning a local high school tennis team with one other PT. I am also going to be conducting my first senior exercise class in April in one of the local towns!
One thing that is great about this job – is that it’s never boring! I always am doing something new!

Hi there Annie. I stumbled onto this website this evening. I don’t know if this site is still in use. I am one of those orthopedic OT’s you mentioned. If you need to bounce some treatment ideas off of someone, I am available.
Dear Annie,

I have been interested in going into the study of Occupational Therapy once I complete my Senior year. If you could, I would like to recieve any information and advice you have on Occupational Therapy. I believe that I have the tools and mentality to have a successful career in Occupational Therapy.
