This course examines the role of occupational therapy in the treatment of individuals with physical disabilities. Common disorders will be explored as well as their impact on occupational performance. Appropriate screening tools used by the OTA will be introduced and interventions used to address the conditions will be implemented. Compensatory strategies will be introduced based on theories, models, frames of reference, and available evidence. The lab portion of the course will put into practice the ideas learned in lecture. The student will apply knowledge and techniques used in providing OT intervention to adults and geriatrics whose physical dysfunction negates occupational performance. In addition to occupational interventions, the student will learn and practice the use of preparatory activities including modalities, exercise, and splinting.
