The rest f the EXCO team has remained unchanged but there has been sme re-shuffling f Exc buddies. The number f face-t-face meetings was decreased ver the last year t reduce csts. Aternate meetings have been cnducted via Skype and these have prved successful. STANDING ORDERS The Standing Orders have been updated but specific sectins will be reviewed at Cuncil. The Standing Orders will cntinue t evlve and shuld thus be reviewed annually at Cuncil.
2 POSITION STATEMENTS Wrk has cntinued n develping psitin statements n Occupatinal Therapy Grups, Occupatinal Therapy in Primary Health Care and Cmmunity-based Rehabilitatin. The cnsensus prcess has prven t be time-cnsuming but this is necessary. We hpe t finalise these statements within the next few mnths. OT OFFICE MATTERS The nline system is in place and membership, wrkshp applicatins and CPD certificates are nw all dne nline. The website is increasingly being used t pst infrmatin t assist members and ffice bearers t access infrmatin. Ranne Muller has taken n the administratr rle fr OTASA Facebk. MEMBERSHIP At the 2011 Cuncil meeting, all branches were challenged t increase their membership by 10%. Strategies t attract new members included increasing OTASA s effectiveness, imprving cmmunicatin with members and nn-members, ffering branches mre supprt t enable them t functin better and dispelling the myths abut OTASA. T encurage OTs in the public health sectr t jin OTASA, a nce-ff jining fee f R was ffered in September Figures fr 2013 reflect 2346 OTASA members f which 177 are students. This is an increase f almst 22% since % f all ccupatinal therapy staff (OTs, OTAs and OTTs) registered with the HPCSA (N=4019) are OTASA members; this is an increase f 14% since Almst all branches have met the gal f a 10% increase and many have exceeded this. TRANSFORMATION PLAN The final draft f the histry and develpment f OTASA is available and will be discussed at Cuncil. Exc acknwledges the wrk dne by Faslen Adams and Tasneem Abrahams in develping this pamphlet. It will be distributed t all OT staff registered with the HPCSA as a strategy fr recruiting new members. STANDING COMMITTEE POSITIONS The vacant standing cmmittee psitins identified at Cuncil 2012 were filled as fllws: Histrian Rse Cruch CPD Standing cmmittee Chairpersn - Antnette Owen Ethics Standing cmmittee Chairpersn - J-celene de Jngh Publicatins Standing cmmittee Crdinatr Tania Buys The handver prcess did nt g as smthly as anticipated and strategies will need t be implemented t ensure smth transitins in future. CODING AND PROCEDURES COMMITTEE Exc has met regularly with Haley Nrval as chair f this cmmittee. The cmmittee has cntinued t wrk actively n matters affecting the cding f, and prcedures related t, OT services. At the invitatin f Discvery Health OT practice guidelines fr specific cnditins were develped. The
3 cmmittee has cntinued t ffer wrkshps n cding as part f the Private Practice mdule ffered by INSTOPP and has wrked clsely with the Cmpensatin Cmmissiner n aspects affecting cmpensatin claims fr injured wrkers. CPD COMMITTEE Members can nw btain the equivalent number f CPD pints fr their membership fees by answering SAJOT and Fcus multiple chice questins (5 may be dne free f charge but a reduced rate is ffered n thers fr members) and receiving reduced fees fr attending branch CPD events. The ver-arching CPD plan presented by EXCO at Cuncil 2012 was handed ver t the new chairpersn. An initiative t develp electrnic CPD activities has been started. This will ffer CPD pprtunities t members living in remte areas. The first activity is a pdcast f the Paeds imbiz held in March 2012 multiple chice questins are being develped fr this. OTASA needs t wrk at making CPD activities mre rural friendly, e.g. can branch members ffer vernight accmmdatin t rural OTs? EDUCATION & RESEARCH COMMITTEE The educatin cmmittee under the chairmanship f Lisa Wegner has been very active. The ccupatinal science and research sub-cmmittees frm part f the educatin cmmittee but als perate separately t wrk n identified areas utlined in their reprts. Obtaining ethics apprval fr research studies dne by clinicians has been prblematic; as OTASA des nt have the infrastructure, expertise r resurces t frm a research ethics cmmittee, clinicians shuld link with academics t btain ethics apprval thrugh universities. A request fr funding a research prject was apprved and OTASA plans t wrk with the Research sub-cmmittee n increasing funding fr research activities and cnsidering a research award. ETHICS STANDING COMMITTEE Exc was invlved in several ethical issues related t the emplyment f OTs. It has been clear that OTs are nt fully appreciative f the HPCSA ethical rules and the implicatins f running a business. Our legal cnsultant has been invlved in advising and cmmunicatins have been sent ut thrugh all-member mailing n several issues related t glbal fees, naming f a practice and ensuring adherence t the ethical rules.
4 HISTORIAN Rse Cruch has suggested prducing a cffee table bk n the histry f OTASA. Exc has agreed in principal. Rse will draw up a prpsal and submit it t Exc with a budget. The bk will be ready fr the WFOT 2018 Cnference. PUBLICATIONS COMMITTEE The standing rders fr the psitins f Publicatins crdinatr, SAJOT editr and Fcus editr are being finalised t ensure the respnsibilities fr each psitin are clearly defined. On the recmmendatin f the current editrs, editrs fr the SAJOT and Fcus will be appinted rather than elected in future. These are key psitins and thus the peple hlding them must be cmpetent fr the jb. Electrnic and hard cpies f the SAJOT and Fcus are being prduced and will cntinue fr the next 2 years; an electrnic survey will be dne t gauge member s respnses befre a decisin is made t discntinue hard cpy versins. There is currently a ne-year embarg n SAJOT articles with the idea f using this as a bargaining tl fr entering reciprcal sharing agreements with ther OT jurnals. All ther SAJOT articles are available free f charge via the SAJOT website. Members have access t the fulltext f the last 3 SAJOT issues via the OTASA website. A Memrandum f Agreement has been signed between the New Zealand Jurnal f Occupatinal Therapy (NZJOT) and SAJOT whereby members f the respective assciatins will have access t the jurnals f the ther assciatin.
