Name: Kieran
Profession: Occupational Therapy
Where are you from? London
Current Locum position? (Job title, Grade, etc.) Rehab Assistant - Enable Team
What do you enjoy about your job? A newly qualified OT – I am finding my current role as a Rehab Assistant extremely rewarding, I like collaborating with a diverse range of client’s who are experiencing a variety of challenges in their daily lives and enjoy the process of building rapport and connecting with people. I also enjoy working in the community where I am finding that no one day is ever the same.
Personal achievements within your role? I like to think that my support is enabling my client’s to make positive changes to their situations. There is always a sense of achievement when a client engages and responds positively to therapy. I have recently had my contract extended as a Band 5 Occupational Therapist and I am very excited about what the future will bring.
How do you unwind from work? Socialising, going to the cinema, gardening, reading, yoga and anything to do with cars.
