Invitation to Private Practice OTs
My name is Lisa Heisler. As well as serving as VP for Practice for the Wisconsin Occupational Therapy Association, I work as an OTR in WI in private practice. I have recently been placed as the moderator for the Yahoo group: OTnPP. This is a group for OT’s who are in private practice. The benefits of joining is to provide an opportunity to network, seek information from peers, to share frustrations, gain insights from others and enable a means to connect with other OT’s in private practice across the country. Those who join this group do not need to be members of their state association nor AOTA in order to participate. Joining this group is free of charge, but therapists do need to sign up by going to the following link.
