I have been an OT for many years and after reading some of the occupation discussions I "feel" like I don't really know what OT is.... When I evaluate a client I address their individual roles and why I have the referral for skilled intervention. For many clients their goal is to go home. We develop goals based on the things they need to be able to do in order to return to their prior roles. I find myself writing long term goals relating to dressing, bathing, hygiene, meal prep, etc., and short term goals relating to strength, activity tolerance, safety, adaptive equipment training, ROM etc. I am really interested in taking a more "occupational" approach in order to emphasize the role of Occupational Therapy. However, I am unsure how my goals should be written or would by assessment be different ... can some please help me??
