How does the OTPF guide OT practice?

I believe that the OTPF not only guides OT practice, but helps us establish exactly what we practice as well. We are able to determine our evaluation and intervention plans along with determining the best fit outcomes for each individual client. It is also beneficial for bringing occupational therapy and those who practice it out in the open for the public eye to better understand what we do.

Neuronote #2

On Wednesday we were given the opportunity to attend the Memphis Rolling Grizzlies practice. The Rolling Grizzlies are a group of guys that are athletic, entertaining, and very inspiring. The individuals who make up the team all have different backgrounds, lifestyles, and goals, however there are two things they all share; they love the game of basketball and they play in the National Wheelchair Basketball Association (NWBA). For those of you who think the words disabled or paralyzed entails that someone is unable to compete or perform in an athletic sense get in contact with me and I’ll take you to the next practice and be more than happy to show just how wrong you are. We watched them practice for two hours, and I honestly hadn’t realized that even 30 minuets had gone by because I was so engaged and amazed with what I saw. I don’t know about you, but I played baseball, basketball, and football my whole life growing up, practice after practice. With my memories and knowledge of baske...

Group Facilitator

Today, Chelsea, Gracie, and I facilitated a group over time management skills. I found this experience to be very beneficial and ironic. We actually all three, after selecting the topic of time management, forgot to do our rough draft until the day before its due date. However, this did not stop us, we stayed at school and worked until it was complete. I was actually very impressed with how well we came together and were able to make a great plan for our groups meeting. I really liked being able to do this because I know I will lead many groups during my fieldwork in Alaska and the more practice I get the more prepared I will be. I felt that we each equally delivered on this project. We were able to come together and decide on a plan that I believe flowed very well. My main take away from this experience was how it felt to actually be the leader, even if just in a simulation. It also made me very excited for the opportunity to actually lead a group in my up coming level 2 fieldwork....

Neuronote #5

For my last neuronote I decided to write about the book The Reason I Jump. I had to read this book for a SPED class in undergrad and decided to re-read portions that I had originally marked as reading it the first time. When I read this book it made me completely change my thought process about how those who have autism experience life. I never once stopped to think how they actually view life and everything around them. The book is an autobiography written by a 13-year-old boy from Japan about what it is like to live with autism. The way autistic people view the world is very different than the way we may perceive them to view the world. This disconnect between how we view and treat people with autism and how they actually view the world makes living with autism is even more difficult than it already is. The book really made me question who is actually different. I feel like his perspective on life is so much more pure than my own and so much more beautiful. My bigge...
