Knowledge, skills and professional behaviours required by occupational therapist and ph... - 0 views

  •  
    The findings from this systematic review provide evidence for the attributes required by occupational therapists in work-related practice, but not specifically for entry-level practitioners. Well supported attributes included work injury prevention, management, including treatment and rehabilitation, communication, and professional presence. I think research into the preparation of occupational therapists for entry-level work-related practice in these attributes would add to our understanding of readiness for practice in this field.

Substance abusers' anger behaviour and sensory processing patterns: An occupational the... - 1 views

  •  
    This article relates substance abuse with sensory processing disorders. Participants reported on the following anger behaviours: verbal expression, physical expression, escape, substance use, suppression, non-verbal expression, and calming strategies. The article recommended that occupational therapists should consider evaluating and the sensory processing of their adult clients with problematic anger and/or substance abuse difficulties in order to help with behavior problems. Interesting! Something I had not thought about prior to this article.

  •  
    This study explored students' perceptions of their confidence to use research evidence to complete a client case analysis assignment in preparation for participation in fieldwork and future practice. Results suggest that problem-based learning methods were significantly associated with students' perceptions of their confidence to use research evidence to analyze a client case.

Ethics, occupational therapy and discharge planning. - 0 views

  •  
    This article discusses the moral basis of discharge planning in terms of autonomy, beneficence, non-malificence and justice. The article discovered that OTs are unintentionally breaking these 4 principles and therefore their code of ethics and professional conduct. It gives quotes from clients about the session and is an interesting read on a dry subject, IMO.

    I enjoyed this article because it discusses the perception and understanding that OT students have regarding what occupational therapy involves. It follows students throughout their curriculum. It also includes their responses in quotations, which is nice to see and read. Lots of short, concise responses that I think we could all use at some point or another.
