Outspoken OTEpisode 9: Meaning vs. Medicine: OT’s First Fight (1790-1899)Episode 1: OT Started as Rebellion (1790–1899) In this first episode of the 8-part “Occupation Under Pressure” series, we go back to the days before occupational therapy had a name — when meaning, craft, community, and dignity shaped healing long before healthcare systems tried to reduce it to checkboxes and units. We explore the philosophical and sociopolitical roots of OT from 1790 to 1899, including the Moral Treatment Movement, settlement houses, the arts-and-crafts era, and the rise of graded activity in tuberculosis sanatoria. This episode reveals how occupation originally functioned as identity-building, purpose-restoring, skilled engagement — not “ADL practice.” Then we connect the past to today’s challe...

You’ll learn: 🔹 What HR1 actually changed Grad PLUS loans eliminated New borrowing caps for graduate vs. professional programs OT placed in the lower-funded “graduate” category 🔹 Why OT was left off the “professional degree” list and how that outdated 1998 list still gov...

Practicing OTs, OTAs, students, educators, and even those who have left the field all said the same thing: the system designed to produce and protect competent occupational therapy practitioners is breaking down. Michelle explains what experts would call a pipeline crisis — when the sequence from education to employment to retention begins to fail. From inconsistent curriculum and unpaid fieldwork to unsafe productivity demands and loss of m...

2025-10-2125 minOutspoken OTEpisode 6: Equality’s Out, Equity’s In — But What Does That Mean for OT?In this episode of Outspoken OT, host Michelle Eliason, MS, OTR/L dives into the American Occupational Therapy Association’s 2025 Code of Ethics and its two major updates: replacing equality with equity and adding advocacy as a core professional value. What sounds like a simple word change actually signals a deeper philosophical shift for occupational therapy — from fair processes to fair outcomes. But what does that mean for clinicians? How do we balance advocacy, neutrality, and scope of practice without drifting into politics or losing clinical clarity? Michelle unpacks the differences between equality and equity, explores what “advocacy” really means in...

2025-10-1431 minOutspoken OTEpisode 5: We Are Giving Our Own Profession AwayToday’s episode dives deep into one of the biggest professional conversations happening right now — the ongoing tension between occupational therapy and physical therapy — and what it reveals about how we’ve been talking about ourselves for decades. We start From the Feed, where Chris Nahrwold’s viral post in the Practical Occupational Therapy Facebook group challenges the old phrases like “PT helps you walk, OT helps you do the things once you get there.” He asks the hard question: Are PTs limiting us, or are we limiting ourselves? Then in My Hard Take, Michelle breaks down some of the most repug...

She unpacks ten critical changes that may weaken the scientific backbone of the profession, from diluted leadership qualifications and vague “generalist” definitions to the politicization of accreditation language and the quiet erasure of measurable competency standards. This episode isn’t about blame—it’s about foresight and accountability. Michelle calls attention to how these shifts could compromise clinical readiness, faculty credibility, and the neutrality of healthcare education. She also offers...
2025-10-0726 minOutspoken OTEpisode 3: Growing in Number, Shrinking in ValueIn this episode of Outspoken OT, Michelle Eliason takes a hard look at the growing disconnect between occupational therapy’s rising employment numbers and its declining professional worth. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, OT employment is projected to increase from 160,000 to 182,100 jobs by 2034—a 13.8% jump that sounds promising on the surface. But when you compare those projections to federal reimbursement trends, a different story emerges: occupational therapists may be growing in number, but each position is worth less per unit of service than ever before. Michelle breaks down where this growth is happening and what it m...
2025-10-0616 minOutspoken OTEpisode 2: The Ethics No One Wants To Talk AboutIn this episode of Outspoken OT, we dive into the uncomfortable truth behind ethical distress in occupational therapy. From productivity pressures in SNFs to federal whistle-blower cases and the global fight against healthcare fraud, Michelle unpacks how systemic incentives erode integrity—and why leadership accountability matters more than ever. Drawing from the AOTA Ethics Commission Advisory Opinion (2019) and the 2025 Global Scoping Review on Medical Fraud and Abuse (Najar et al.), this conversation connects real-world cases, data-driven fraud detection, and technology’s emerging role in protecting ethical clinicians. Whether you’re a new grad or a seasoned rehab leader, this episod...
2025-10-0520 minOutspoken OTEpisode 1: Scope Creep, Ego, and the OT Identity CrisisIn this episode of Outspoken OT, Michelle Eliason dives into one of the most misunderstood topics in rehabilitation—scope of practice. What began as a debate about “who’s doing what” has turned into a culture of professional policing, leaving occupational therapy caught in the middle. Michelle challenges that mindset by reframing scope through the Occupational Therapy Practice Framework (OTPF), showing that our identity is rooted in reasoning and occupation—not task ownership. In This Episode You’ll Learn: 1. Why “scope creep” is misunderstood and how it distracts us from deeper issues 2. How the OTPF defines OT’s true identity as a scie...
