Kylie – Driver Trained Occupational Therapist

Kylie has been an OT for 22 years and has worked in several different clinical settings and in a variety of roles, both OT and non-OT. She has a passion for enabling people to engage in valued and meaningful occupations and for using a client-centred approach to practice. After many years working in SA Health, she spent nearly 3 years teaching in the new OT program at the University of Adelaide. Whilst Kylie loved teaching and still hopes to incorporate her passion for teaching into her new role, she made the decision to return to clinical practice when the opportunity arose at Williams Occupational Therapy. The clear links between driving and a person’s independence and ability to engage in many meaningful occupations, as well as the meaningful occupation of driving itself, aligned with her values and passion as an OT. Kylie states “I was also looking for a new challenge clinically, and the opportunity to extend my scope of practice and become trained in a very focused area of OT was a key factor in my choice to come and work with Brad and William’s OT team”. Kylie also looks forward to hopefully engaging in her passion for research and evidence-based practice and working to improve services for clients well into the future!

Jason says, “ I thought what a perfect way to fulfil my dream of becoming a teacher, a teacher that’s one-on-one teaching people one of the most important skills, how to drive safely”.

Jason has been fortunate enough to extend his love of teaching others to drive, into helping those with special needs to realise their dreams of becoming independent. Jason reports, “It is certainly a very rewarding aspect to driver training, being able to help those less fortunate to bring their dreams into reality”. He looks forward to helping as many people with extra needs obtain their licenses in a professional, patient and friendly environment.
