OCCT 6741 - Occupation Based Practice III: Adult Neuro

3 Credits

This course provides an occupation-based theoretical foundation for the O.T. process, including assessment, intervention, and discharge planning for adults (young adult through mid-adult) with neurological and/or psychosocial problems that interfere with occupational performance. The course includes lectures and labs related to occupational and social functioning in activities and adult participation in societal roles. Students will use clinical reasoning skills to make educated decisions regarding selection of appropriate treatment methods and use of effective clinical techniques considering each patient’s needs and desired outcomes. Laboratory experiences will provide opportunities for students to practice selected evaluation and treatment methods.
