Students learn methods of evaluation, remedial and compensatory treatment strategies to support occupational performance. Students participate in part-time clinical experiences that link coursework with practice. This course prepares the students for Fieldwork II experiences (full time) and occupational therapy practice in adult rehabilitation settings. The laboratory component will include, but not be limited to, concepts and practice of treatment techniques.
