Course Description

AOTA's new Hand Rehabilitation CEonCD™ course familiarizes occupational therapy practitioners with a client-centered and occupation-based approach to intervention that is easily incorporated into the hand rehabilitation setting. Topics include

Client-centered evaluation and the creation of the occupational profile

Use of occupation-focused interventions, including preparatory techniques, purposeful activities and occupation-based interventions

Strategies for long- and short-term goal setting.

Course discussion highlights the rationale for the use of the occupation-based approach and includes case examples to illustrate clinical application. In addition, the course describes how to use occupation-based intervention to enhance hand rehabilitation protocols without sacrificing productivity or detracting from the concurrent client factor focus.
