USA is different...nos queda mucho camino en España

Buenos días a todos, hace tiempo que no me animo a actualizar el blog, pero hoy lo hago y de manera masiva, como siempre tengo como referencia a mis amigos terapeutas ocupacionales de Estados Unidos, espero poder algún día trabajar allí, aunque con el tema del reconocimiento del título y tal....es un rollo, si sois alumnos en España pedid que soliciten el reconocimiento de la titulación por la WFOT, yo ya lo he hecho en mi Universidad, eso sí, no se si me habrán hecho caso. Alla voy con el post, de qué se trata, pues de como un terapeuta ocupacional te puede ayudar en todos estos temas, eso sí en inglés, pero ya podíamos tener una versión en castellano, ya sabeis, si vais a hacer un corta-pega literal, cuidado con los derechos de autor que se os cae el pelo, pero da buena idea de todo lo que nos queda por recorrer. Espero que os resulte interesate. Hasta pronto
