OTPF

The OTPF is the Occupational Therapy Practice Framework and it looks at the domain and process of the profession. This is used to be able to carry out the OT process for clients which can be also be known as the evaluation or occupational profile, intervention, measure the progress or outcome measures, then to discharge if the client has reached his or her goals in a safe and successful manner. It is important to use the OTPF because it helps us as therapists learn about the client's occupations, client factors, performance skills, performance patterns, context and environment, and activity demands. Knowing the client and how to help them in the most effective way is why OTPF is a great resource to go by when interviewing the client. It gives us a deeper purpose, meaning and relationship with the client and in return gives the client a deeper purpose and meaning to carry out their everyday life.
