Evening all my first chat sorry for any errors in advance #OTalk

Symbolic_Life
Hey better late than ever 😉 #otalk

MrDarrenGormley
@Maria_Markland @Helen_otuk @Dai2584 are we talking about tears of sadness or tears of joy? Does that make a difference? #OTalk

BillWongOT
@Maria_Markland @Helen_otuk @Dai2584 this is interesting. For me, I should never cry for a diff. reason that is culturally related. #otalk

Maria_Markland
@CarmenNQ_OT @Helen_otuk @Dai2584 Err don’t really want to go into naming names, but we watched a video of a professional who cried #OTalk

Helen_otuk
@Dai2584 I am sure if it was for no particular reason or inappropriate, but I can think of some situations where it would be ok? #Otalk

sarahahpmh
@MrDarrenGormley @nursemaiden @bethyb1886 hi there, I might qualify for both:- OT and carer for my Dad with dementia #OTalk

Maria_Markland
@CarmenNQ_OT @Helen_otuk @Dai2584 #OTalk …when a client had acheived their goal and they ended up comforting the professional!

Symbolic_Life
May I asked the posed question for discussion? #otalk

DebLants
@Dai2584 @Helen_otuk I think you can cry in front of patients if it’s something extremely upsetting, as long as you try to control it #otalk

CarmenNQ_OT
@Maria_Markland @Helen_otuk @Dai2584 it is a grey area. Each professional has to assess the situation and act accordingly i guess #OTalk

BillWongOT
@DebLants @Dai2584 @Helen_otuk IMO, I think the only time acceptable is an emotional goodbye. #otalk

First chat – just found. Glad @BillWongOT raised point. It’s relative. Raises lots questions #Otalk @Maria_Markland @Helen_otuk @Dai2584:

I think utilising TUOS is important although crying in front of clients? Mmm. #otalk

Dai2584
@MrDarrenGormley @Maria_Markland @Helen_otuk #otalk never cried in front of a pt for joy or sadness but I dont think it a bad thing

CarmenNQ_OT
@Maria_Markland @Helen_otuk @Dai2584 When relating to the therapy is showing emotion that bad? Not linked to personal circumstances. #OTalk

Maria_Markland
@CarmenNQ_OT #OTalk Glad it’s a grey area. I think there’s an extent to which it can still be seen as professional. After-reaction important

Symbolic_Life
What do people determine professional boundaries as? Or did I miss that? #OTalk

@MrDarrenGormley #otalk. I do find professionalism and emotion difficult to be honest. Ive had to reflect on it a few times

BillWongOT
@OTalk_Occhat @Helen_otuk @Dai2584 in some situations, I don’t think we can. We might escalate the client’s behavior. #otalk

#OTalk It is being considered to teach compassion to healthcare workers! Is it because we are expected not to have emotion toward patients

@DebLants: compassion is key. Hopefully history (past/present) shows many influential health workers/professionals with compassion. #OTalk
