Stepping up for occupational therapy
The Royal College of Occupational Therapists today announced its new strategy, values, and brand.
Aergo Health is very excited to see what the future holds at RCOT. We’ve worked closely with some amazing Occupational Therapists during the development phase of the Aergo PS and look forward to continuing to meet new OTs as the PS reaches more and more young wheelchair users.

The RCOT’s five-year strategy details what it will do to make its vision to ensure people everywhere value the life-changing power of occupational therapy a reality.
The new brand signals a major change for the organisation and they see it as essential to achieving its ambitions.
Commenting on this RCOT Chief Executive, Steve Ford said:
“I’m hugely excited to be announcing our strategic plans and revealing our new brand which is critical to achieving our ambitions for the organisation and profession.
"At RCOT, everything we do is so that one day people everywhere value the life-changing power of occupational therapy. Our vision purposefully focuses on our wider impact on society – enhancing our profession’s profile and positioning the role of occupational therapy for the future.
“We listened to our members to find out how we can best support them as individuals, to enable and grow the profession, and to boost awareness so that more people want to get involved with occupational therapy – and choose it as a solution, or as their profession.
“To reach our ambitious goals we must improve and change how we work to become a more forward-looking organisation. We will boldly lead the profession forward with a stronger voice than ever before. We will be the advocate and champion that occupational therapists deserve, sharing and celebrating the life-changing outcomes they help to achieve for people and society. We will be proudly inclusive – welcoming and supporting new generations of occupational therapists to join the profession so we reflect the diverse society that we represent and work with.
It’s time to show the world the true power of what we do."
