My husband used to say something that always stuck with me. He said “Your goals should SCARE you a little and EXCITE you a lot.” My goal for the PODCAST is to : - ⁠Shine a spotlight on the great work that caregivers do to transform patients lives - ⁠Raise awareness of the importance of Occupational Therapy to improve patient care - ⁠Share heartfelt stories from real patients across the world This project has been both scary and exciting... but I’m so pleased with the result! I hope you enjoy! Martina

18. Attack The Process, Not The Person | Helen Hughes, Patient Safety Learning Hub

mercredi 19 novembre 2025 • Durée 01:02:46

In this week’s episode of The Martina Tierney Podcast, I sit down with Helen Hughes, Chief Executive of Patient Safety Learning, alongside our own Dearbhaile Mulholland, whose passion for safer care sparked this powerful conversation.

Helen’s work shines a light on something many of us feel deeply but rarely articulate, that patient safety is everyone’s responsibility, and that real change only happens when we share learning openly, honestly and without fear. From global systems thinking to the everyday realities faced by frontline staff, Helen brings a rare blend of clarity, compassion and courage to a topic that affects every patient, every carer and every clinician.

🔍 In this episode, we explore:

Why avoidable harm remains one of healthcare’s biggest challenges

How collaboration, culture and shared learning can transform safety

The story behind The Hub, now the world’s largest patient-safety knowledge platform

Why seating, posture and equipment need to be part of the safety conversation

What it truly means to move from blame to learning, and from isolated practice to collective responsibility

This episode is an honest, energising and deeply hopeful reminder that safer care isn’t just possible, it’s achievable when we empower the people who know their patients best, listen to those closest to harm, and give teams the tools and trust they need to do the right thing.

Whether you work in healthcare, leadership, quality improvement or simply believe in the dignity every person deserves, Helen’s insight will stay with you long after you finish listening.

17. Remove That Mental Health Hat | Dr Bel Youngson, Retired Stroke OT & PhD in Diabetes

vendredi 7 novembre 2025 • Durée 40:27

In this week’s episode of The Martina Tierney Podcast, I sit down with Bel Youngson, Chief Operating Officer at Hertfordshire Independent Living Service (HILS), whose story beautifully illustrates what it means to lead with both heart and purpose.

From supporting vulnerable adults to transforming community services across the UK, Bel has spent her career turning compassion into action. Her journey is a powerful reminder that leadership isn’t about hierarchy - it’s about humanity, collaboration, and never losing sight of the people we serve.

🔍 What we cover in this episode:

* How Bel’s early experiences shaped her commitment to person-centred care

* The impact of small, consistent acts of kindness in creating large-scale change

* What true leadership looks like in the face of challenge, growth and service transformation

* The balance between operational excellence and emotional intelligence

* How HILS is redefining independence, dignity and connection for thousands across the UK

Whether you work in health, social care or leadership, or you simply want to be reminded of the difference one person can make, Bel’s story will leave you feeling inspired, grounded and hopeful about the future of care.

7. Family Ties & Fresh Air Therapy | Anna O'Loughlin & Clare McMonagle

Saison 1 · Épisode 9

mercredi 18 juin 2025 • Durée 34:58

Some stories don’t just stay with you - they shift how you see the work we do.

I sat down with two incredible Occupational Therapists and lecturers at Ulster University: Anna O’Loughlin and Clare McMonagle (also an Equine Specialist OT) for a conversation that was equal parts science, soul, and lived experience.

We talked about real lives - about Ruby, whose journey with cerebral palsy took an unexpected turn the day she met a horse. About the moment when Anna’s Aunt Sarah was finally able to lift her head thanks to a gadget invented by the family.

This episode is about the moments that matter. The kind that remind you why you do this work in the first place.

🎧 Episode 7: A deep dive into purpose-driven practice - from early intervention to the power of movement, motivation, and meaningful connection.

If you work in therapy, education, or just care deeply about dignity and possibility - this one’s for you.

6. Pt 2 - Expert witness OT & medico-legal training | Norma Findlay, Expert Witness & Postural Specialist OT

Saison 1 · Épisode 6

vendredi 6 juin 2025 • Durée 33:37

Recorded in early 2025, we learn about Norma Findlay's fascinating work in the medico-legal field and her passion for postural management.

“I have yet to find another profession that’s truly this holistic.” 💬

In this powerful moment from The Martina Tierney Podcast, Norma Jane Findlay reflects on the unique and vital role of Occupational Therapists — especially when it comes to understanding the whole person.

From home adaptations to energy conservation, from 24-hour care needs to what really brings joy and meaning to someone’s life — OTs go beyond tasks.

They ask:

🧠 “How can we help you preserve energy… so you still have some left for the things that matter most?”

💡 It's not just about what you can do, but how you live well doing it.

🔗 During the episode Norma talks about the 7-point toolbox for postural management, find some learning about postural management along with resources https://learn.nes.nhs.scot/60811

Look out for the Bonus Episode 6, Part 1 which is what happened when the cameras stopped rolling... or so they thought!

This special conversation between Martina and guest Norma, was after they had finished recording their podcast episode in early 2025. They both thought the cameras and mics had stopped filming and had a really relaxed chat.

They talked openly about their special connection, about vibrational energy and what they believe happens after a loved one passes from this life.

There were goosebump moments and tears of joy! We felt the conversation was too insightful not to publish, so we're really grateful to both of them for agreeing to share this private chat.

4. A Long-haul Flight Every Single Day | Jonathan Tierney, Seating Matters

Saison 1 · Épisode 4

vendredi 9 mai 2025 • Durée 31:36

"A long-haul flight is a strain on the body because an airline seat is not made to measure. Those of us who are able, can change position, get up from our seats and walk around to stretch. Many patients and residents in hospitals and care facilities are unable to do this without assistance. This means that for many, their seating experience is the equivalent of a long-haul flight and most have to do it day after day after day, living in pain and discomfort."

***

My son Jonathan interviewed me earlier in the series and in this episode I have turned the tables and got to interview him about his role as Seating Matters Commercial Director.

Jonathan talks passionately of the human impact of being able to access suitable healthcare equipment and the reality of working with his two brothers and his mother!

We talked about:

✨ Joining the business aged 17

✨ How a patient should be treated equally whether in a bed or a chair

✨ Innovative use of enhanced seating in Accident & Emergency Rooms

✨ Travelling to support customers and distributors around the world

✨ And he takes us behind the scenes of a family-run business
