Best Personal Independence Product

There are many products available which enable people to participate in meaningful occupations. These range in size, complexity and cost and help in a variety of daily activities including bathing, showering, toileting, dressing, mobility, transport, access, cooking and home maintenance to name just a few! We invite entries for specific items of equipment, supported by independent feedback from a service user. The entries will judged during the OT Show by a panel of occupational therapists, so the item of equipment will need to be available at the show.

Best Therapeutic Product or Service

Many products or services are aimed at improving or maintaining occupational performance or function. These range from smaller therapeutic items used in treatment, larger systems used for maintaining well-being and also services to increase independence and participation. We invite entries for such products or services, supported by independent feedback from a service user or a health professional that uses the product or refers people to the service. The entries will judged during the OT Show by a panel of occupational therapists. Smaller items of equipment will need to be at the show, but for services, a representative from the service will need to be available to speak to the judging panel.

Excellence in Caring Award

The role that occupational therapists play in seeking out suitable equipment, training carers and problem solving cannot be over-stated. This award aims to acknowledge specific items of equipment, products or systems that are revolutionising the care environment for both service-users and carers alike. We are particularly interested in equipment that supports the move towards “single –handed care” or that enable clients to take an active role in their care. A statement from a carer who uses the product, or a health professional (preferably an OT), will be needed to support the entry. The entries will judged during the OT Show by a panel of occupational therapists, so specific items of equipment will need to be at the show.
