Rooted in person-centred, values-driven care, occupational therapy supports individuals facing life-changing circumstances to live fully—at every stage of their journey. In this episode, occupational therapist Julie Wilding and physician Dr. Samantha Winemaker join host Justine Jecker to explore the role of OT within a palliative approach to care.
Together, they discuss how OT’s holistic lens aligns with palliative principles to enhance quality of life, uphold dignity, and support ongoing engagement in meaningful activities. Discover how working collaboratively, welcoming the unknown, and leading with presence can reshape your relationship with, and understanding of, palliative care.
