    I think its important to understand the role occupational therapists can play regarding oncology patients. Recently, I had the experience of working on the oncology floor during my level II fieldwork, in which I found cancer treatments to be both aggressive and debilitating to patients. OTs can provide approaches that enable individuals to complete everyday living skills, regardless of physical or pathological symptoms, and life expectancy. Occupational therapy services can be extremely beneficial and vital for patient's once treatment is completed in order to transition back to their daily activities, as well as while receiving care.
