Working with people with brain injuries or working in mental health as well as with older and young people and in rural areas will all be discussed at the annual occupational therapy conference for final year students from Charles Sturt University (CSU). The two day conference in Albury, which includes keynote addresses by the Head of Albury-Wodonga Campus, Professor Gail Whiteford and a local expert in childcare in remote Aboriginal communities, Ms Helen Fitzgerald, will include work by 44 students who will graduate next year from the University’s four year course. “We will discuss issues affecting our profession, including working with people with brain injuries, in mental health, with older and young people and in rural areas. The conference helps prepare us for our future professional lives and is a great way to complete our studies at CSU,” said conference coordinator Ms Vanessa Mahon. The conference starts at 9am on Wednesday 28 November in the CSU Nowik lecture theatres, Guinea St, Albury, and continues on Thursday 29 November.
