OT Assessment

Catalog description

This is the second of a two-course series integrating occupational therapy theory with assessment. In this course, students will analyze selected culturally relevant, client-centered, occupation and performance-based models. The models are applied to clinical stories representing life span development and varied contexts. Students are also exposed to multiple assessment tools associated with each model to reinforce the link between theory, evaluation and occupational engagement. The course teaches students to engage in the process of using novel assessment tools and clinical reasoning for the evaluation process and corresponding documentation. Prerequisite(s): OT 321 .
