We are all on the same team: overcoming communication challenges between Occupational Therapists and nursing staff in nursing homes
Specialist seating and bed positioning are critical interventions for maintaining resident comfort, preventing pressure injuries, optimising posture, and promoting participation in daily activities. Due to the amount of staff working in a nursing home, it is common to encounter challenges in ensuring these recommendations are consistently implemented following clinical handover to nursing staff. Factors such as staff turnover, competing clinical priorities, limited understanding of positioning principles, and ineffective communication from both sides can result in inconsistent practice and reduced therapeutic outcomes.
This webinar will explore the barriers to successful implementation of specialist seating and bed positioning recommendations, identify strategies for effective interdisciplinary communication, and discuss practical approaches to embedding these interventions into routine nursing care to improve resident safety and quality of life.
Let’s talk about technology enabled care: safety, prevention and independence at home through a TEC lens
As health and social care services continue to evolve, Technology Enabled Care (TEC) is playing an increasingly important role in supporting people to live safely, independently, and confidently in their own homes. This webinar will explore how digital solutions, remote monitoring, telecare, and connected technologies can enhance person-centred care, improve outcomes, and support proactive intervention.
The session will showcase practical examples of TEC in action, discuss implementation challenges and opportunities, and highlight how technology can complement clinical expertise while empowering individuals and their families.
Clinical Corner: prevention and early intervention
This session brings together the key themes explored across our recent webinars on the prevention and early intervention.
This chatty, podcast-style webinar offers a relaxed and interactive space to revisit the most important clinical messages from the quarter. Attendees are encouraged to submit questions in advance and during the session, creating an opportunity to explore real-world challenges, clarify key concepts, and deepen understanding of best practice when supporting individuals within prevention and early intervention.
We will also highlight relevant intervention solutions and explore practical strategies for teaching and supporting others, and we will share our Prevention and early intervention guide with attendees after the session to support ongoing learning and application in practice.
Whether you joined us throughout the series or are looking for a concise and practical summary, this session will consolidate learning and provide actionable insights to apply in practice.

Why prevention and early intervention matters in 24-Hour postural care with Mary Snow
Posture is something we often take for granted, until it starts to impact our health, function, and quality of life. For Occupational Therapists and allied health care professionals, understanding posture is about observation, early action, prevention, and promoting long-term wellbeing.

Let’s be honest- no one wakes up thinking: 'today, I’m really going to work on my sitting tolerance.' And yet… in our world, it quietly becomes one of the most important things we assess.
