Focus on Research

work with the Royal College of Speech and Language Therapists. Two groups that embody this close liaison are the Chairs Liaison Group and the Joint Therapies Research Group. These two groups have shown that therapists can recognise shared difficulties, overcome knowledge gaps and work together for the benefit of the whole health care community. It is important that this national example is replicated at all levels of health care. Occupational therapists and physiotherapists have to get better at sharing with each other what they do and why they do it. Then both will go beyond simply having an understanding of what the other does and so appreciate the different philosophical basis of their therapy. This process of education should not assume that we know what the other profession does or why. If a fuller understanding is reached, occupational therapists and physiotherapists could work together positively on shared problems. This may be very difficult but the efforts have surely got to be worth the rewards.
