This Week in Twitter - 5/14

Every week we try to compile our favorite tweets from the PT/OT/SLP/COTA/PTA space and there were some real gems this week on Twitter. Be sure to follow the folks who wrote these tweets for some great info. More and more we're finding Twitter an invaluable resource for discovering things before anywhere else. 

Are you on Twitter? You should be. Let us know in the comments if you are, we'd love to follow you.

If you are make sure you're following us at @SPOTonChicago. There are plenty of links we push out there that don't make the blog.
