Episode 0: Introduction to the EBPOT podcast with Kim Griffin

Welcome to the EBPOT (Evidence-Based Paediatric Occupational Therapy) podcast. I'm Kim Griffin, a paediatric occupational therapist and your host. My goal with this podcast and newsletter is to make recently published evidence in the occupational therapy literature easily accessible to paediatric occupational therapists, particularly those working in schools. The podcast focuses on recently published research evidence relevant to school-based paediatric occupational therapists. I'll prioritise topics most applicable to mainstream school settings: Self-regulation and sensory needs Autism and dyspraxia/DCD Fine motor skills and handwriting Daily living skills and other functional skills General practice trends from adult literature with paediatric relevance This episode gives you a little bit of background to Kim and also discusses how Kim chooses the articles and curates the EPBOT podcast.
