Essential Concepts of Occupation for Occupational Therapy is an
accessible introduction to vital concepts in occupational science
for the occupational therapy practitioner or student. It invites
therapists to view and understand their clients differently— by
using an “occupational lens” to focus on the lives of their
clients as everyday doers. It addresses the key questions at the
heart of understanding humans as occupational beings: What do
people typically do? And, where, when, how, why and with whom do
they do it? These questions organize the key concepts from
occupational science that form the first chapters of this book,
enabling therapists to better understand their clients—and
enabling their clients to better understand the importance of
occupation to their well-being. Additional chapters clearly
describe how therapists can use occupation-based models to apply an
expanded view of occupation and make evaluation and intervention
more relevant and beneficial to their clients. A final chapter
examines trends and lifestyle changes occurring in the 21st century
to anticipate how these might impact future practice. Through use
of engaging and thoughtful cases that illustrate many of the
concepts, this guide will help practitioners clearly understand
their clients as doers, while also providing enhanced ways for
therapist to confidently apply these concepts in practice.
