Upon successful completion of this unit on written and practical examination, the student will:
Analyze various case examples by:

a. ¬¬Identifying physical performance impairments during an occupation.Case Study
b. Selecting appropriate tests to assess the indentified physical performance deficits.
c. Determining and justifying in written form which model of practice/frame of reference would best guide the treatment of the identified impairments.¬¬¬
d. Implementing the selected frame of reference/model of practice in correcting, or compensating, for the identified impairments.
e. Role-playing a treatment session based on student analysis

Curriculum thread(s) addressed:Case Study
• Occupation Centered Practice
• Role Acquisition

• The student will demonstrate proficiency in applying OT treatment techniques and practices to a case study that will be assigned to them.Case Study
• The student will create a problem list, list of strengths, long-term goals, and short-term goals.
• The student will demonstrate treatment session which will be described in an intervention note.
• After the treatment session, the student will identify opportunities to recommend to the occupational therapist the need for referring client for reevaluation, discharge planning and additional evaluation for other services and/or professional(s).

Procedure:
• The student will be assigned a case study with an array of physical dysfunctions.
• Student will complete an analysis based on a structure and guideline that requires information in regards to: Problems, strengths of the client, long-term and short-term goals for treatment.
• Student will develop two treatment sessions applying techniques, strategies and practices
• Student will demonstrate by role play, one treatment session.
• Student will write an intervention/treatment note accordingly.

Written assignment: Poor (1) Fair (2) Good (3) Excellent (4) Score
Determine and select model of practice/frame of reference to best guide the treatment of the identified impairments.
Unable to determine appropriate Application of model of practice/frame of reference Additional questions arise. Difficult to follow, yet selected practice/frame of reference is present.Case Study
Application of model of practice/frame of reference requires additional clarification Application of model of practice/frame of reference is best suited
Use of proper OTPF terminology and grammar Use of inaccurate terminology or grammar on more than 8 occasions. Use of inaccurate terminology or grammar on no more than 6 occasions. Correct use; with use of inaccurate terminology or grammar on no more than 4 occasions. Correct use; with use of inaccurate terminology or grammar on no more than 2 occasions.
Summary of primary and secondary medical diagnoses: signs, symptoms, prognosis, prevalence Did not identify. Clarification needed Missing 50% of data Missing 25% of data All relevant information provided
Developed a prioritized OT Problem list.

Explained justification of prioritization using the OTPF. Not addressed or information not relevant. Only two problems are OT relevant and student requires additional clarification about how practice framework is utilized to prioritize problem list. Most problems are OT related and can be addressed by therapist. Most problems prioritized and justified with fair use of practice framework. Problem list is accurate and prioritized considering patient specific diagnosis, needs, and wants. Utilized and explained clearly application of practice framework to problem list.
