Each month JustOT would like to recognise one of our locums for their personal achievement and commitment to the Occupational Therapy service.

Name: Anna Gillies

Profession: Occupational Therapist

Where are you from?
Melbourne, Australia

Current Locum position?
Band 6 OT – Integrated Community Therapy.

What do you like about your job?
It’s fantastic being able to work with people on their goals, rather than discharge planning. Community work gives you the chance to engage with people so much more which is highly rewarding in its self.

Personal achievements within your role?
Learning all the acronyms of a new healthcare system!

How do you unwind from work?
I love riding home along the canals. Every time I do it, I just can’t believe it’s not the weekend. This is a beautiful city.
