Get to know Nicole

Why did you choose a career in the Occupational Therapy industry?

I chose to become an Occupational Therapist after working for many years as a support worker in the disability field. I have always loved working with people and knew I wanted to be in a role that worked alongside individuals to break down barriers and support to achieve their goals.

What is the best part of your job?

Working face to face with clients, building genuine rapport and connections with clients and their families. Completing assessments and therapy to work towards achieving patients’ goals. I also love the flexibility and variation within the OT role, no two days are the same.
