Occupational Therapy Review

The Occupational Therapy department consists of a large diverse team covering many disciplines. On average, the 65 strong department has to deal with some 150 adult referrals a week - around 6,000 annually – the majority by direct contact from an individual service user, supplemented by others from hospitals, GPs, physiotherapists, carers, social workers and users’ families. The Bradford Metropolitan District Council chose to work with the Lean Healthcare Academy to streamline working practices and improve across-the-board service delivery.
