To celebrate International Occupational Therapy Day 27 October 2023, the Occupational therapy team from the Western Cape Rehabilitation Centre participated in an off-site team-building event.
The theme for 2023, “Unity Through Community, Embracing the Change,” was particularly significant as the OT department has undergone many changes.
This event was an opportunity to acknowledge and celebrate these changes while fostering a sense of unity among our team. In true OT style, we embraced participation in an activity at Clay Cafe, engaging in a creative painting session that embodied the spirit of being, doing, becoming and belonging. It was the first off-site gathering in to celebrate international OT day for the OT group, allowing us to reconnect and strengthen bonds, which is vital for optimal team functioning.
We sincerely thank the facility board for their support in making this memorable day possible.
