OT 713 - Contemporary OT Practice I: Client-Centered Interprofessional Collaboration

3 Credit(s)

This course is the first of a 5-course seminar series that incorporates an experiential component and reflective learning. The overall purpose of the experiential aspect of this course is to provide students with exposure to clients and populations in community settings through guided observation and active participation. The seminar supports concepts presented in concurrent courses and serves to establish the foundation for reflective practice, professional behavior development, and understanding the client-practitioner relationship with a focus on interprofessional collaboration to maximize the person-environment-occupation fit. Class activities, complimented by the Level I fieldwork experience, focus on learning the skills involved in the client-practitioner and interprofessional team interactions.
