Building professional resilience to meet challenges emerging from digitalization

• Professional resilience deals with a person’s capacity to overcome challenges in one’s work or practice and to use resulting experiences for personal and professional development. Digitalization has become one of the challenges occupational therapists encounter today. Concerns include meeting clients with occupational issues involving digital technology, improving one’s own and clients’ digital competence, using telehealth in the workplace, and keeping updated with e-health products or services. Building professional resilience involves finding opportunities for reflection, discussions, and a supportive environment. Thus, the objective of this workshop is to provide an opportunity to reflect on one’s practice and share ideas and strategies to deal with challenges emerging from digitalization.The workshop will start with information about results from research and development work, continue with reflection and small group discussions, and close with a summary of what has been discussed. By the end of the workshop, participants are expected to (1) identify at least one personal strength to meet an identified challenge, (2) identify at least one strategy that can be applied in their own practice, and (3) identify at least one resource that can serve as support.
