Theraposture to host CPD webinars for OTs about the provision of adjustable cots and beds
Adjustable beds, chairs and care cots specialist Theraposture will be hosting a series of free-to-attend CPD webinars led by a qualified occupational therapist during January and February 2022.
Shaun Masters, an occupational therapist and equipment specialist at Theraposture, will lead the ‘masterclass’ educational sessions, which will provide a convenient opportunity for occupational therapists (OTs) to complete CPD hours early in 2022.
Each attendee attending a webinar receives a certificate of attendance and a reflective log. They can choose from three topics, with each one focusing on solutions to topical challenges in the community.
Healthcare professionals are encouraged to attend all three with a choice of midday sessions or recorded broadcasts in the early evening.
Shaun will also be available for a live Q&A so specific client needs can be discussed along with deeper exploration of subject matter, helping to strengthen everyday practice for OTs and improve outcomes for clients.
The ‘Confidence in paediatric cot bed prescription’ webinar takes place on 25th January 2022 from 12-12.45pm and offers practical and theoretical recommendations to achieve better outcomes for children, families and carers. A live Q&A will take place that day from 4-4.45pm.
The ‘Helping adult clients get legs into bed’ webinar takes place on 27th January from 12-12.45pm and features practical and theoretical recommendations for client independence and safer bed transfers. A live Q&A takes place that day from 6-6.45pm.
The ‘Clinical reasoning for assistive equipment – chairs and beds’ webinar takes place on 1st February 2022 from 12-12.45pm and features guidance to achieve improved client occupational performance in the home. A live Q&A takes place that day from 4-45pm.
In addition to improving occupational performance, Shaun’s webinars will explore the many health and socio-economic factors around the provision of effective adjustable cots and beds, with healthcare professionals encouraged to engage with him on topical discussion and methodology.
Qualified as an OT since 2011, Shaun has expertise in moving and handling in both adult and paediatric sector and used to be responsible for delivering community-based re-enablement in Hampshire, Berkshire and Dorset before joining Theraposture to lead its educational programme.
