OTD 5111 CARE I
The Clinical Application and Reflection Experience (CARE) series is designed to synthesize didactic learning with an experiential component that supports knowledge development, fieldwork problem-solving, and skills required to deliver occupational therapy. This introduction to fieldwork I rotation is focused on professionalism and understanding occupations. Students will be expected to demonstrate understanding and compliance with the facility’s safety policies and procedures, practice appropriate and professional verbal communication, and actively listen to understand what is being communicated by patients. Students will demonstrate safety awareness and begin to develop clinical reasoning in functional mobility. A combination of community-based, clinic-based, simulation, reflective group discussions, and faculty-led experiences could be utilized to stimulate critical rationale and application of occupational therapy principles to occupational therapy practice across the lifespan.
