As a OT, i think that everything is correct in this video, except the images that was showned in the min 1:12 until 1:17. We are not that. That is the work of other professional. Not ours. And in 2018 we really should be the change in the idea that people have that the OT does the same as the physio. Its my honest opinon, as an OT. Great, great video. Keep on going.

Hi Catarina, thank you so much for chiming in here! As a fellow OT, I definitely wrestled with the best imagery to communicate to potential clients about our profession. As you will see throughout the video, I erred on the side of what I thought would communicate with the non-health professional. (For example the supine to sit mechanics were lacking, but I went with the most simple imagery of "helping someone up.") If you (or any other OTs viewing this) have ideas for imagery or language to use in the future let me know!

Oh! And I forgot to add that most people will see this video in the context of this " What is OT?" page, so it will be accompanied by a long-from explanation of OT as well! otpotential.com/what-is-ot/
