Q: How have you seen the need for recreation therapy services growing lately?Working with SHA, and specifically with the mental health component there, I have seen quite a lack of community support in regard to recreation therapy for a lot of individuals I have been working with. It’s something that if you ask any recreation therapist we all feel there should be more of us.
Within SHA, we do have a few community recreational therapists but unfortunately, there are a lot of challenges for many individuals with wait times and things like that. Currently right now in Saskatchewan, there are very, very, very few private practice Recreation Therapists. It’s a growing industry actually within Canada. More and more practitioners that are going into private practice are seeing a need for that community support for individuals outside of hospitals.
