Unicare sponsors OT Week 2023 and celebrates hardworking OTs across Australia
OT Week Breakfast 2023
Friday 27 October 2023
Pagoda Resort, Como
Every year, OT week celebrates the hardworking professionals across Australia who are the backbone of the industry. The WA Occupational Therapy Association made the week a wonderful time this year by organising a range of events, and the highly anticipated OT week breakfast.
Unicare Health is proud to be a long-standing supporter and platinum sponsor of OT Week. Supporting and strengthening the continually evolving world of occupational therapy is essential to fostering health and well-being, and building a stronger community for everyone.
For this year’s OT week, we put the spotlight on the hardworking people behind the profession. In a time when people increasingly rely on computers and technology to tell them what to do, face-to-face connection is all the more critical. Our theme this year was: “I’m an OT. Google can’t do my job.”
This year’s breakfast was a big success. Keynote speaker Dr Kylie Wales delivered her address to a room of fascinated OTs.
Keynote: Dr. Kylie Wales
Dr. Wales, a highly experienced OT, is currently conducting research to reimagine assessment techniques in order to facilitate improvements in clients’ outcomes. Occupational Therapy Australia recently acknowledged her as a leading early career researcher and awarded her the 2021 Early Career Researcher Award. She has also been invited to participate in the University of Newcastle’s Early and Mid-Career Women’s Development Program.
The Unicare Health team was inspired by Dr. Wales’ speech. They also enjoyed a delicious breakfast served by the Pagoda Resort. It was a wonderful opportunity to catch up with friends new and old across the Western Australian OT community.
Pearl Chan, head of marketing at Unicare Health, took to the stage to draw the winners of the breakfast raffle. Four lucky OTs were happy to walk away with prizes, including high-quality drinks and a stay at the Pagoda resort!
It’s such a joy getting to share this week’s fun! Being a platinum sponsor of this event is our way of showing gratitude to the hundreds of OTs working tirelessly in partnership with us every day. You deserve to be rewarded for your dedication to improving people’s lives through assistive technology.
At Unicare, we take pride in partnering with Occupational Therapists across WA as their trusted equipment supplier. It is an honour to link OTs and clients together, providing optimal equipment solutions for their needs.
Nothing makes us happier than seeing our clients achieve success in rehabilitation and developmental goals. Thank you to all the OTs who work tirelessly to make that happen!
Thank You!
