Ergonomics In and Out of School with Kirsten Beshay, OTD, MA, OTR/L

We are kicking off the 2021-22 school year with the perfect topic - Ergonomics. For the better part of 18 months, many of us have been working from home and students have been learning from their couches, beds, & Kitchen table. If you are lucky, you have had a desk in your home to work from.  Now, Most of us are heading back into the school buildings and that is going to be a big change on our bodies. So today I am bringing on School-Based OT and Ergonomic Specialist, Kirsten Beshay, to talk a little bit about how ergonomics has and will continue to impact us, the teachers in our schools and the kids we serve. In this episode we dive into both her experiences as an ergonomic specialist in the private sector as well as her experiences in the schools.
