RCOT Specialist Section - Neurological Practice
We actively support and promote best practice in occupational therapy for people with neurological conditions
RCOT Specialist Section - Neurological Practice is made up of a dynamic group of members who are all passionate about helping individuals living with neurological conditions to maximise their potential.
Through our combined efforts the membership seeks to develop, promote, and influence the occupational therapist’s role in neurological rehabilitation. We do this by supporting clinical best practice, shining a light on the most up to date evidence and research, and commenting on and influencing national policy.

Information, resources and learning opportunities are available via our e-newsletter, local and national study events held in person or remotely and the annual conference.
