Emma Ratcliff on 12 Aug 12This article is helpful for relating ICF to OT and the use of ICF when looking at outcomes. "The application of ICF has proved to be helpful to occupational therapists in identifying age-appropriate roles and reflects the person's independence and well-being (44,96). ICF facilitates increased precision in recording and monitoring different health condi- tions (72,97-99), e.g. the field of rehabilitation coun- selling, vocational assessment, and job placement (100,101). It is similar to many OT models in devel- oping tasks and activities for clients and recognizing the interaction between person and environment (80,92,102)."
