1. Please discuss how you incorporate occupation-based interventions in this setting.

     Currently I am using occupation-based interventions for handwriting with a patient who had a stroke affecting his dominant side.

2. Describe two issues that limit your ability to use occupation-based interventions and discuss strategies that could be used to minimize these barriers.

     I am limited in being able to do occupation-based activities such as bathing and driving because in the clinic we do not have any ADL restroom, kitchen or other settings. It is difficult to do occupation-based interventions in this outpatient setting when the clinic is always so busy and does not have specific ADL areas. 

3. Considering an eight hour day, what percentage of your interventions would you describe as:

Occupation-based activities i.e., play, shopping, ADL, IADL, work, school activities, etc. (within client’s own context with his or her goals) __10____%

 Purposeful activities (therapeutic context leading to occupation) __30____%

Preparatory methods i.e., sensory, PAMs, splinting, exercise, etc. (preparation for occupation-based activity) __60____%
