This ground-breaking text provides a comprehensive guide to the
occupational therapy profession in Australia, from the profession's
role in the health care system to the broad scope and nature of its
practice. The book is organised into three sections: the Australian
context; professional issues and practice issues. Contributions
from 80 Australian occupational therapists working in education,
research, policy and practice bring together the most relevant and
up-to-date information in this essential book. The authors begin
the Australian environment section with an overview of the
Australian health care system, a history of occupational therapy in
Australia and the role of Australian occupational therapy
professional associations and regulatory bodies. The values and
philosophy of occupational therapy, ethical and legal aspects of
practice and the role of occupational therapy in population health
and health promotion are considered next. The professional issues
covered in the book include using effective communication skills,
client-centred practice principles and a strength-based approach
when working with individuals, families, groups, communities,
organisations and populations. Additional topics, including
occupational science, the education of occupational therapists,
research in occupational therapy, evidence-based practice clinical
reasoning and occupational therapy models of practice, are also
covered in the middle section of the book. Occupational Therapy in
Australia: Practice and Process Issues is established as the
essential practice reference for students, practitioners and
educators in Australia. This second edition has been revised and
updated throughout and includes new chapters on communication
skills, environmental aspects of occupational therapy practice and
decolonising occupational therapy through a strength-based approach
to practice.
