Paradise Lost!… Paradise Regained? Putting the Promise of Occupational Therapy into Practice
Australian occupational therapy journal, Vol.32(2), pp.45-53
1985
Abstract
Occupational therapy is beset by confusion over its professional mandate. Agreement has not been reached on the unique need of man which it serves; and insufficient progress has been made in linking everyday practice with an underlying theoretical framework. The Model of Human Occupation, based in the Occupational Behaviour theoretical tradition, is proposed as a suitable tool to bridge the theory-practice gap. Examples are discussed of the fresh meaning it brings to occupational therapy's wholistic orientation to health care.
