Do Wounds Impact Occupations? An Occupational Therapy Perspective

ALL SESSIONS ARE CLOSED CAPTIONED AND WILL BE RECORDED AND MADE AVAILABLE TO REGISTERED ATTENDEES WITHIN 24-48 BUSINESS HOURS AT THE OTLEARN PORTAL.

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

Complex wounds affect more than tissue integrity; than can significantly disrupt occupational performance, participation, and quality of life. This webinar examines the impact of wounds on meaningful occupations through an occupational therapy lens and explores occupational therapy’s unique role in functional wound recovery. Participants will identify physical, psychosocial, and environmental barriers to participation and discuss occupation-centered interventions that support independence, engagement, and holistic rehabilitation outcomes within interdisciplinary wound care practice.

Learning Objectives

• Identify the impact of complex wounds on occupational performance, participation, and quality of life across multiple domains of occupation.
• Describe occupation centered interventions practitioners can use to support functional wound recovery within interdisciplinary rehabilitation settings
