  This is an interesting article that discusses the difference in competencies when comparing community based OT to institutional based OT. Some of the unique competencies that seem to occur more in these types of settings include: self-direction, adaptability to new situations, ability to step out of the medical model, confidence, and perseverance (which was ranked highest out of those listed). This study also talks about how their education prepared them for traditional settings (nursing homes, hospitals, etc), but did not prepare them well for community based settings.
