Practice resources

Functional cognition in OT

Occupational therapy practitioners analyze how an individual's cognition affects their ability to do the things they want and need to do and collaborate with clients to design individually-tailored interventions using ADLs and (IADLs) that are meaningful to the client and provide direct application of functional skills.

Sleep

Rest and sleep is a foundational occupation in the Occupational Therapy Practice Framework, 4th edition. Occupational therapy practitioners can help clients, groups, and communities to manage and develop healthy and effective routines and habits to promote sleep.

Pain management

Occupational therapy practitioners work with clients who may be or who are experiencing pain. Services are often provided in multi-disciplinary teams, where clients can benefit from the team approach.

I want to give a big shout-out to the OT practitioners who give hope as part of their treatment. It makes a huge difference.

Occupational therapists have the privilege of helping people learn or relearn how to connect with their environment, and we get to have fun while we do it.

I have already found the profession of occupational therapy to be fascinating, rewarding, and challenging, and filled with countless opportunities to serve one’s community, one’s country, and one’s world.

I like to think of occupational therapists as puzzle solvers because they assist clients in solving how to complete tasks that they may or may not have been able to do in the past.
