What a complete pleasure this chat with Eric was today! We cover so much about Occupational Therapy in Ghana. Eric is part of the first batch of qualified Occupational therapists in Ghana as the country have only been offering the OT programme since 2012. We cover so much in this episode from the profession being new, to some challenges this would undoubtedly cause, mentorship, research, a brand new "seedling model" hopefully to be published soon as well as how Covid-19 is impacting the profession and Erics role.
Erics Recommendations:
Erics published work discussed on the show titled: Exploring the factors that affect new graduates’ transition from students to health professionals: a systematic integrative review protocol
