The objectives/aim:
The main aim of this study block is to enable students to develop the knowledge base and cognitive skills needed for competent and effective implementation of the occupational therapy (OT) process. Through case-based study in seminars, supported by interactive lectures, guided reading and independent study, students will work to develop skills in assessment, intervention planning and evaluation.
Assessment task:
Formative assessment is a presentation to peers of a reflection on a critical research paper or case study from their student placements.
Time demands: 10 weeks/60hours
Learning Outcomes: the student will be able to:
· Demonstrate knowledge of health and social care organisations and service delivery, and the role of the occupational therapist and others within the MDT
· Demonstrate and apply knowledge of health conditions, encountered by occupational therapists, to reasoning and problem –solving
· Demonstrate knowledge of, and ability to apply, models and frameworks of practice in occupational therapy
· Work collaboratively within interprofessional, interdisciplinary and interagency contexts, including with service users and the public to advocate for occupational needs to be addressed
· Integrate research -based evidence into reasoning
· Advocate for self as a professional practitioner and promote the benefits of occupational therapy in a range of settings and contexts.
Content:
The module will consist of interplay between the theoretical basis of reflective practice and models of clinical reasoning and their practical application to the issue which health professional’s encounter. Students will evaluate existing theories then apply their understanding to their interventions with clients and interaction with their fellow students. Case studies will be presented to other students during the seminars.
