Occupational Therapy Final Exam

Questions

Course Introduction

Occupational Therapy is a healthcare discipline focused on enabling individuals of all ages to engage in meaningful activities and daily tasks that support health, well-being, and quality of life. This course explores the foundational theories, assessment techniques, and intervention strategies used by occupational therapists to assist people with physical, mental, or developmental conditions. Students will learn how to evaluate clients needs, develop personalized treatment plans, and use therapeutic activities to enhance clients independence and participation in home, work, school, and community environments. The course emphasizes a holistic, client-centered approach and introduces students to ethical, cultural, and professional issues relevant to contemporary occupational therapy practice.
