Brain Boost: An OTP's Guide to Modifiable Cognitive Health

In this episode of the OT Flourish Podcast, Mandy Chamberlain, an occupational therapist, explores how OTs are uniquely positioned to enhance brain health through modifiable risk factors.

Joined by certified OT assistant Corrin Campbell BS, COTA/L, they delve into strategies for preventing cognitive decline by combining cognitive stimulation and physical activity. They emphasize the importance of a holistic approach, incorporating various factors like nutrition, sleep, and social engagement to strengthen cognitive reserves. They also discuss the challenges practitioners face and how they can find inspiration and confidence in their practice by helping clients lead cognitively healthy lives.
