Abstract

The care of adolescents in reclusion has been a field of work for occupational therapists in different parts of the world. The objective of this study was to describe and analyze Brazilian occupational therapists’ practices with adolescents in reclusion. Research conducted in Brazil, identifying 56 professionals, invited to answer a questionnaire ( n = 43); participate in discussion groups ( n = 9); and interview ( n = 4). Professionals reported different visions that guide their practices, including the identification of individual skills and the profession’s possibilities for social action. Occupational therapists have specificities to work in these institutions, highlighting the possibilities of acting with a focus on social change. Practices in occupational therapy can lead to social change if focused on social issues. Social occupational therapy offers theoretical and methodological elements that inform the profession. Reflections on the practice carried out, according to a critical perspective, enable a performance in occupational therapy that intends social change.

职业疗法与被监禁的青少年：专业实践分析

关爱隐居青少年一直是世界各地职业治疗师的工作领域。本研究的目的是描述和分析巴西职业治疗师对受排斥青少年的做法。研究在巴西进行，确定了 56 名专业人员，邀请他们回答问卷（43 人）；参加讨论小组（9 人）；进行访谈（4 人）。专业人员报告了指导其实践的不同愿景，包括个人技能的确定和该职业在社会行动中的可能性。职业治疗师在这些机构的工作具有特殊性，突出了以社会变革为重点开展行动的可能性。职业疗法的实践如果聚焦于社会问题，就能带来社会变革。社会职业疗法为职业提供了理论和方法要素。根据批判性视角对所开展的实践进行反思，可以使职业疗法的表现具有社会变革的意图。
