Occupational Therapy and Neuroplasticity After Brain Injury | Dr. Shawn Phipps | TEDxAlmansorPark

Shawn Phipps, PhD, MS, OTR/L, FAOTA tells the inspirational story of the challenges and triumphs of a patient who suffered a severe traumatic brain injury from a motor vehicle accident. The power of Occupational Therapy and Neuroplasticity is described using the CAPE Recovery Model, which requires challenge, action, practice, and evaluation to build new pathways in the brain through the ordinary and extraordinary activities of daily life that support recovery so that individuals with traumatic brain injury and other disorders of the brain can live life to its fullest. You will experience laughter, tears, and joy as you hear and see the real-life story of Armando Rodriguez and the effect of occupational therapy and neuroplasticity in supporting recovery and beyond after a life-changing injury to the brain. Dr. Shawn Phipps is the Chief Quality Officer and Associate Hospital Administrator at Rancho Los Amigos National Rehabilitation Center in Los Angeles, California, where he has served for over 21 years as an Occupational Therapy practitioner, clinical specialist, supervisor, manager, and chief. He is the Past Vice President and Board Director of the American Occupational Therapy Association and currently serves as the California Representative #1 to the AOTA Representative Assembly. Dr. Phipps has also served two consecutive elected terms as the President of the Occupational Therapy Association of California and serves as Adjunct Faculty and a member of the Board of Councilors for the University of Southern California Chan Division of Occupational Science and Occupational Therapy. He has published and presented extensively at the state, national, and international levels and serves as a Lead Editor for the Occupational Therapy Manager textbook through AOTA Press with additional publications through the American Journal of Occupational Therapy, Willard & Spackman, and Pedretti’s Occupational Therapy. Dr. Phipps was inducted as a Fellow of the American Occupational Therapy Association (FAOTA) and was a recipient of the AOTA Cordelia Myers Writer’s Award, the OTAC Practice Award, the OTAC Award of Excellence and the AOTA Recognition of Achievement for Excellence in Leadership, Management, and Administration. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

    I would argue that PT touches lives in the same way :) ......................................... This was a touching example of persistence on the part of the patient, the support of his friends and family, the flexibility of the hospital to allow the OT to be so creative and goal-centered, the medical insurance support and the will to succeed on the part of the patient. I think you need all of those component to have this type of result. Congratulations to everyone involved with this.

    I feel that OT does its wonder not only by connecting the client and the therapist but also encouraging curiosity as well as giving meaning and purpose through the actual activities - which for many can be the route back to their identity and healthy self-worth. Therefore seem to be doing more than nursing does and I am saying this as a proud nurse with a little bit of envy. 😁🌈

    Hi. I am Dr Sushant Sarang, an Associate Professor in Occupational Therapy at the prestigious Seth GSMC & KEMH, Mumbai, India. Thank you for such a lovely presentation. The short talk appeared simple but had occupational therapy essence in every word. We, as occupational therapists truly can bring about a change in people's lives. It took me years to understand the essence of OT and now that I have finally realized it, everyday I am discovering newer ways to implement it - neuroplasticity working to its best. Thank you once again.

    OT's are vital for recovery after a stroke, after a TBI, MVA or any neurological trauma or condition. I am glad this video is out there for those who are not familiar with Occupational Therapy. OT's are educators, challengers, creators, enablers (in a good way), cheerleaders, teachers and advocates for their patients. A good OT should have compassion, patience, ability to challenge without overwhelming, involving family/significant others in the recovery process, and working on what the patient's goals are. The number one thing over the years I had to learn was to LISTEN to the patients (and observe), what they tell you (or sometimes not tell you); because that's the answer - the patient is telling you and you have to figure out how to help them fix it. As the years went by I had wanderlust and thought maybe I'd want to be a nurse, but I always come back to OT and I love the profession and all the amazing OT's out there making a difference in people's lives on a very tangible, practical and goal-driven way. Think of OT as Life Coaches who give you the tools for success...that's what we do! 😊

    This presentation touched me especially because of my serious brain injury 42 years ago. I wrote about it in college for an English assignment if you want to read my inspiring story just go to my name /wakeup. Yes, I earned a degree in Information Technology, and yes I added a few big words to my vocabulary - like neuroplasticity. It’s a good read and I got an A on the paper, but my purpose is not to brag, but like Armando I want you to know “anything” is possible!
