Establishing fidelity processes and measures is an important step in the development of interventions. Accurate referencing, naming of interventions and robust discussion of deviations from the theories, methods or terminology underpinning interventions support the fidelity of future applications of interventions in research and clinical settings. This commentary clarifies the establishment of fidelity for Occupational Performance Coaching (OPC) in relation to a recent article on this topic by Dunn and colleagues. Fundamental flaws in the referencing, labelling, theoretical underpinnings and methods inaccurately described as OPC are outlined. Guidance in establishing fidelity for future applications of OPC is provided.
