Emergent Practice Models.

Catalog description

Students examine current trends and emergent models of OT practice. In an effort to meet society’s occupational needs, the American Occupational Therapy Association established the following broad categories: Children & Youth, Health and Wellness, Mental Health, Productive Aging, Rehabilitation, Disability, & Participation, Work & Industry and Education. Students will explore emerging practice environments, such as consultation, care coordination, and transition services through a comprehensive literature review that will facilitate the integration of theoretical models for the conception of a doctoral capstone project. Prerequisite: Admission to the OTD program.
