This study aims to describe the development of a science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics (STEAM)-based AT curriculum in OT and evaluate its effectiveness using the Kirkpatrick model.Methods:An 18-week STEAM-based AT curriculum was created with lectures, hands-on activities, and a simulation exam. A one-group pretest–posttest observational study was undertaken with 40 undergraduate students to gauge its effectiveness. Their professionalism was evaluated using a multidimensional checklist, whereas a satisfaction survey gathered their feedback on the curriculum experience.Results:Level 1: Participants reported high satisfaction (mean = 4.61, SD = 0.36), with a 97.5% agreement. Level 2: 95% ( n = 38) passed the AT curriculum exam. Level 3: Therapists and patients expressed satisfaction with participants’ AT skills (therapists: t(39) = 12.22, p < 0.001; patients: t(39) = 8.84, p < 0.001). Level 4: Participants showed significant improvement in professionalism ( t(39) = 16.45, p < 0.001). Lastly, using the Kirkpatrick model, the STEAM-based AT curriculum passed the evaluation.Conclusions:The STEAM-based AT curriculum in OT enhances professionalism and potentially boosts patient satisfaction with AT services provision.","PeriodicalId":49096,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Occupational Therapy","volume":"3 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140198868","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Questions explored use of and attitudes to digital technology in the care of children with complex needs. Descriptive statistical analyses and content analyses were undertaken on the data.Results:Respondents were 43 parents/carers whose children used rehabilitation services prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. The majority used digital technology frequently to support their child and saw the potential for greater use in rehabilitation services – provided this was not at the expense of in-person therapist contact.Conclusion:Parents and carers held positive views of digital technology as a tool to support their child and enhance rehabilitation services. Recommendations include regular service consultation on parental/child attitudes to digital service delivery and longitudinal studies to assess related health outcomes.","PeriodicalId":49096,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Occupational Therapy","volume":"26 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-03-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140172218","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Participants were categorized into three groups based on their functional independence measure (FIM) scores at admission, distinguishing between complete dependence, modified dependence, and independence groups. They were classified into the group with higher collaborative practice (HCP) and the group with lower collaborative practice (LCP) based on the median value of the therapist collaborative practice scale (TCPS). The primary outcomes measured were FIM efficiency and FIM effectiveness. The main effects and interactions of the level of independence with activities of daily living (ADL) and collaboration were examined using a two-way analysis of variance and Bonferroni multiple comparison tests.Results:The level of independence with ADL and collaboration had an interaction effect related to FIM effectiveness ( F(2, 164) = 3.191, p = 0.044). Within the independence group, HCP and LCP differed significantly ( F(1, 164) = 15.562, p < 0.001).Conclusion:Interprofessional collaboration may improve ADL in patients with high ADL independence at admission.

This study addressed a knowledge gap concerning the adaptive process during periods of occupational disruption.

Transcript analysis was conducted inductively using conventional content analysis.Findings:Two overarching themes were constructed during data analysis: The Disruption Experience and Adopting New Habits and Routines. In the face of disruption, participants described a sense of loss and disconnection, and challenges with time management. Establishing new habits and routines required new learning associated with increased time and flexibility, connecting with others and health and wellness.Conclusion:During changing pandemic restrictions, participants expressed a sense of loss, disconnection and time management challenges associated with occupational disruptions, but also described ways they adapted, improving their health and well-being. Strategies identified through this work may be used to enhance adaptation during disruptions. Future research should explore differences in adaptation, among more diverse populations.","PeriodicalId":49096,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Occupational Therapy","volume":"70 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140128796","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, there are limited assessment tools developed on or adapted for use on the growing older Sub-Saharan African (SSA) migrant population in Europe. Focusing on the item content, we evaluated the relevance of the advanced activities of daily living (a-ADL) tool to the older SSA migrant population in Belgium.Method:Two focus group discussions were organized with participants from the SSA community in Gent, Belgium. Relevant, irrelevant, unclear, and new items were identified. The data was analyzed through the inductive method while consensus agreements were used to arrive at refined themes.Results:Out of the 49 items on the tool, both groups unanimously agreed that 15 items were relevant and 23 irrelevant. Thirteen new items were identified, whereas 15 items were considered unclear.Conclusion:Participants agreed the tool was relevant but should be adapted. Verification and validation of these results in a larger SSA older migrant population in Belgium is strongly recommended.","PeriodicalId":49096,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Occupational Therapy","volume":"10 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139956329","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
