Occupational Therapy and Inclusive Design provides occupational
therapy practitioners and students with the ability to confidently
problem solve, clinically reason and make sound professional
judgements regarding the suitability of products/artefacts and
environments for their clients.
The relevance of design concepts to Occupational Therapy are
illustrated in a broad context with reference to the folklore of
disability and disability discourse, the profession's philosophy,
conceptual models of practice, relevant legislation and review of
Health and Social Care discourse. Ergonomic tools and techniques
for practice are reviewed and related to the seven principles of
Universal Design. Case scenarios are presented and illustrated with
pictures and drawings to guide the reader through the inclusive
design process as it relates to occupational therapists in a
variety of settings.
Additionally, the book aims to give a voice to occupational
therapists as specifiers of equipment, property adaptations and
increasingly, as advisors to new dwelling and other building
projects, with the aim of influencing manufacturers and building
agencies in the adoption of inclusive design principles at the
product/building design phase. This publication's unique focus is
to present an integrated account of the relevant policy supporting
service provision, in conjunction with core Occupational Therapy
philosophy and the application of principles of Universal Design to
case scenarios.
