Book excerpt: Representing one of the most visionary concepts about occupational therapy practice and education available today, Occupational Science: The Foundation for New Models of Practice introduces the notion of a basic science of occupation. Specifically, this provocative volume proposes that the profession of occupational therapy, in collaboration with other relevant scientific disciplines, develop a science of occupation that would provide a foundation for occupational therapy practice. The development of an occupational science is desirable since occupation and its meaning for and application to human life are unique to occupational therapy and embody the principles upon which the profession was founded. The forward-thinking authors discuss the relevance of this potential science, propose arguments for its acceptance and support by members of the profession, and provide illustrations that suggest its application in practice. Certain to provoke serious discussion among occupational therapists, this revolutionary book offers new potential and possibilities for the continuing growth of occupational therapy as a scientific discipline and as a profession. Occupational Science: introduces the idea of a basic science of occupation which studies the human as an occupational being demonstrates the application of occupational science to occupational therapy practice provides innovative models of occupational therapy practice to improve the capacities of people who have chronic disability and to prevent incapacity in those at risk

Download or read book Essential Concepts of Occupation for Occupational Therapy written by CHARLES. CHRISTIANSEN and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2023-11-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essential Concepts of Occupation for Occupational Therapy is an accessible introduction to vital concepts in occupational science for the occupational therapy practitioner or student. It invites therapists to view and understand their clients differently-- by using an "occupational lens" to focus on the lives of their clients as everyday doers. It addresses the key questions at the heart of understanding humans as occupational beings: What do people typically do? And, where, when, how, why and with whom do they do it? These questions organize the key concepts from occupational science that form the first chapters of this book, enabling therapists to better understand their clients--and enabling their clients to better understand the importance of occupation to their well-being. Additional chapters clearly describe how therapists can use occupation-based models to apply an expanded view of occupation and make evaluation and intervention more relevant and beneficial to their clients. A final chapter examines trends and lifestyle changes occurring in the 21st century to anticipate how these might impact future practice. Through use of engaging and thoughtful cases that illustrate many of the concepts, this guide will help practitioners clearly understand their clients as doers, while also providing enhanced ways for therapist to confidently apply these concepts in practice.
