    This study is of particular interest to me after completing my fieldwork in a school system. I had the chance to work with many students who presented with emotional disturbances. I never worked with students based solely on goals associated with these emotional disturbances, but observed and attempted to proved treatment for their emotional disturbances after first working toward their school based goals. Typically these disturbances presented themselves as depression, aggression, and irritability. It was heartbreaking to look around the school and see how many students were affected by some form of emotional disturbances. Unfortunately as a school OT I was only to focus on goals that would make the student more functional in school (such as handwriting) and never had the ability to write goals base on a student's emotions. I believe that there is a great need for occupational therapists to focus on writing goals to provide interventions to students with emotional disturbances. In my setting there were not enough OT's/COTA's to work with all of the students who had emotional disturbances because there were so many students who first required school based interventions. This study suggests that more evidence-based research is needed to help school therapists work with children with emotional disturbances. I hope that eventually there will be a place for OT's in this area.

    The purpose of this clinical reasoning study was to identify frequent clinical reasoning processes of occupational therapists, to compare and contrast clinical reasoning used frequently in medicine. For example, majority of medical clinical reasoning's is related to diagnosis. This article found "diagnosis occupied very little of the therapists' reasoning time. Patients came to therapy with a medical diagnosis, and the therapist's task was to know how that diagnostic condition would influence present and future function". Differences are accounted for by the difference in the particular focus, goals, and tasks of the two professions and the nature of the practice in those arenas. Although occupational therapists work with persons with physical disabilities, the nature and goals of the practice differ from the goals of physicians. It therefore makes sense that therapist's knowledge, interests, and the reasoning strategies would also differ.

    This article discusses the need for OT's to consider driving and how an individual's condition may effect this. It stresses the need to speak with the client themselves and determine if this is a possible goal.

    Using interviews, researchers looked at how OT's viewed their clients and how they managed their pain. Both positive and negative themes emerged including: losing valued roles, having depression and receiving compensation and to knowing: being fearful, looking for a cure or not knowing what to expect, being unable to set goals and being unable to use strategies. OT's reported that client's acceptance and desire to change played a large role in management.

    Although we are still students, I think it is important that we understand the difference in supervision and mentoring. Through supervision on has the ability to enhance their knowledge and skills in order to provide treatment to their clients as a professional clinician. Having supervision from a clinician who has more exposure to the field allows and entry-level practitioner to gain more knowledge and ideas concerning their clients, goals, treatments, and situations that may affect treatment. Unlike a supervisor, a mentor usually finds a mentee. A mentor often assists a mentee who is trying to reach higher levels that they have already achieved. In a mentoring relationship, it is for a longer duration and often conversation topics are broad and free-flowing without a goal in mind.

The Effect of Added-Purpose and Meaningful Occupation on Motor Learning - 0 views

    This article, published by AJOT, is titled the Effect of Added-Purpose and Meaningful Occupation on Motor Learning. The article discusses the effectiveness of implementing goal-directed interventions into occupational therapy practice. As we have learned in class as well as in fieldwork, integrating meaningful occupation into our treatment protocols is very important to the overall goal attainment of our clients. This certainly is an important article for us, as level II fieldwork students, as we are currently implementing and practicing different intervention approaches while under the supervision of an experienced therapist.

    This article describes the challenges that OTs face when treating the whole person in an acute care setting. It is difficult to have other disciplines understand in this setting that mental gains are just as important if not more important to work on in this type of setting. A recent pt had a stroke and was high functioning before...pt had been in inpatient rehab for two weeks and treatment sessions weren't improving d/t mental state. Pt got a decent discharge date and therapy goals were attained in no time!
