Influence of Technology on OT Practice • “Wii-habilitation” has been used in many different research studies • Literature shows that the Wii is being implemented in hospital, rehab, and school settings, with clients with CP, Parkinson’s disease, motor delays, and many other diagnoses • Used to reach therapeutic goals such as increasing strength, endurance, ROM, and the building of social relationships • Clients engaging in Wii-habilitation are also more motivated and willing to participate in therapeutic activities for a longer time

Centennial Vision “We envision that occupational therapy is a powerful, widely recognized, science-driven, and evidence-based profession with a globally connected and diverse workforce meeting society’s occupational needs” AOTA goals by 2017 Want to be able to improve the health and well-being of the broader society, become more creative innovators, and promote membership in AOTA as part of professional responsibility Expanding research, increasing advocacy, and the creation of model curriculums for OT and OTA programs
Centennial Vision • Parallels with the Founding Vision give practitioners a sense of continuity with earlier generations of OTs • The Founding Vision states: “The particular objects for which the occupation is formed are as follows: The advancement of occupation as a therapeutic measure, for the study of the effect of occupation upon the human being, and for the scientific dispensation of this knowledge” • Founding vision was created by Susan Cox Johnson, George Edward Barton, Eleanor Clarke Slagle, William Rush DuntonJr, Isabelle Newton Barton, and Thomas B. Kinder at the 1917 meeting of NSPOT • Major shared focuses between the Founding and Centennial visions: • Successful promotion of occupation as a vital force to meet society’s needs • Engagement in and dissemination of scientific research that supports the effectiveness of occupational therapy
New Directions of the Centennial Vision • Major points of the Centennial Vision which differ from the Founding Vision • Active engagement in research, rather than an aspiration to involve the profession • Incorporation of a social perspective into the view of engagement in occupations • Linking OT in the U.S. to the global community, with the goal of the each country’s practice and research supporting and informing one another
Why are we MSOT students? • April 1998 ACOTE meeting • developed position statement urging post-baccalaureate study for occupational therapists • AOTA’s April 1999 Annual Conference & Expo • Eventually require post-baccalaureate entry-level occupational therapy education • August 1999 ACOTE meeting • voted that professional entry-level occupational therapy programs must be offered at the post-baccalaureate level by January 1, 2007 to receive or maintain ACOTE accreditation status.
Job Opportunities • Job demand is increasing • Increase 26 percent between 2008 to 2018—significantly faster than other fields • Increased demand in early intervention programs due to Disabilities Education Improvement Act • Baby boom generation retires • Median Salary : $69,630 in 2009
