  8. Fieldwork Placements • Act as a bridge from classroom to service delivery settings • Give students an opportunity to demonstrate and apply the knowledge they have learned in class/courses • Provide students with a place where they can learn core skills and techniques essential to OT, and personal skills that can help students improve professional behaviours • Help students develop problem-solving abilities, evolve clinical reasoning skills, and reflect on their practice (Bonello, 2001) Department of Occupational Science and Occupational Therapy

  9. Fieldwork Placements – Schedule 2007-2008 • Fieldwork I: May 5, 2008 - June 13, 2008 • Fieldwork III: April 21, 2008 - June 6, 2008 Department of Occupational Science and Occupational Therapy

  16. Stages of Professional Competency Development Entry-Level Clinician Consolidation Transition Stage 3 Knowledge Application Stage 2 Stage 1 Entry-Level Student Source: Competency Based Fieldwork Evaluation for Occupational Therapists Bossers, Miller, Polatajko, Hartley, 2002 Department of Occupational Science and Occupational Therapy

  17. 1. Knowledge Application - educating • Emphasis on development of interaction skills with clients, family, and other health care personnel • Students endeavour to apply their current academic knowledge base to actual practice • Supervision should be consistent/readily available • Students require opportunities to observe and practise professional behaviours and skills that may include • assessment and intervention techniques • communication with family members / other health care personnel • clinical/professional reasoning specific to client centred occupational therapy practice Department of Occupational Science and Occupational Therapy

  18. 2. Transition - coaching • Emphasis on practice and experience in clinical problem-solving, assessment, and intervention • Students should begin to share and assume responsibility for all components of client centred practice, such as • referral analysis and assessment • planning and implementation of intervention programs • discharge planning and follow-up • Students should be encouraged to try to develop their own ideas/insights and should be able to engage in discussion of several solutions to occupational performance problems and viable courses of action Department of Occupational Science and Occupational Therapy

  19. 3. Consolidation - mentoring • Emphasis on final preparation of student to assume the role of competent, entry-level occupational therapist • Students should be encouraged to assume as much independence as possible in professional reasoning & in linking academic theory with practice • Students may require some guidance but should take responsibility for of client centred practice components: • referral analysis & assessment • planning & Implementation of intervention programs • discharge planning & follow-up Department of Occupational Science and Occupational Therapy
