Kate McGoldrick
Independent Occupational Therapist
About Me
Graduating in 2003, I have worked as an occupational therapist throughout the NHS, Community Services and within Private Practice.
My experience has been gained across Orthopaedics, Surgical, Vascular Surgery / Amputation Rehabilitation, Neurorehabilitation, Stroke and Older Peoples Rehabilitation.
I maintain a small clinical role within the NHS alongside working as an independent occupational therapist. Advances in my practice with the introduction of remote assessments were featured in OTnews in July 2020 - in response to Covid-19 social distancing restrictions.
I have participated in the delivery of health promotion seminars with Age Scotland, educating those approaching retirement on the importance of active ageing.
