Occupational therapy education, translation of current research into practice and clinical competency ensure that assistive technology users can enjoy accessing their community and environment independently, safely, adequately, and freely. This white paper illustrates the role of occupational therapists in the provision of assistive technology devices to promote better understanding of facilitators and challenges affecting the provision of assistive technology globally.

Given this recognition, WFOT conducted a survey to understand issues that impact a transition to degree level education in jurisdictions that continue to offer diploma programmes. An overall 84% response rate was received for the online survey that was circulated to 98 WFOT member organisations in March 2021. Survey results indicated that diploma level education is offered in the jurisdiction of 15 member organisations. Only two of the member organisations indicated that a transition to degree level education is not a goal at this time, although for many, planning was at an early stage. Most member organisations with diploma level education identified the need to influence their government to enable widespread transition to degree level education. Factors most highly rated for influencing such a transition included awareness of competency requirements for occupational therapists, demand for occupational therapy services, access to upgrading programmes, availability of student practice placements, and government and regulatory standards. Recommended strategies to facilitate the transition process included engaging in advocacy and awareness raising, adopting a competency framework, creating opportunities for upgrading, and seeking out collaborative partnerships.","PeriodicalId":53208,"journal":{"name":"World Federation of Occupational Therapists Bulletin","volume":"79 1","pages":"173 - 182"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-03-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42783533","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This increase in obesity has had a direct impact on the practice of occupational therapy in social care. This exploratory study aimed to evaluate the experiences of community occupational therapists in South Wales and to identify enablers and barriers faced by occupational therapists in social care. Semi-structured interviews were carried out with eight occupational therapists working in social services departments across local authorities in South Wales in the UK. Interviews were analysed thematically using the Braun and Clarke framework (2006). The following four key themes were identified from the semi-structured interviews with the occupational therapists: (1) feelings of competence and duty; (2) the changing nature of practice in social care settings; (3) managing complex relationships with clients, management and other healthcare professionals and (4) accessing physical resources in the community. The occupational therapists described their practice experiences relating to the prevention, management and treatment for adults with obesity seen in a community setting. Taking into account the information gained from the interviews, several recommendations have been made to enable occupational therapists to promote independence and quality of life as well as ensuring best practice when working with adults with obesity.","PeriodicalId":53208,"journal":{"name":"World Federation of Occupational Therapists Bulletin","volume":"79 1","pages":"187 - 196"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2022-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46046783","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Furthermore, there is still a lack of evidence-based practice to support its clinical application in Hong Kong. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of occupational therapy (OT), with ASI® interventions, for school-age children with SI problems through randomised controlled trials. Fifty-two subjects were randomly assigned to an experimental or control group; 27 participants in the experimental group received 16 sessions (45 min each) of ASI® intervention. Pretest/posttest changes in scores for goal attainment scaling, the Sensory Integration and Praxis Test (SIPT), and the Chinese Sensory Profile showed significant improvement in the experimental group. The results indicate that the ASI® intervention is effective in treating children with SI problems.","PeriodicalId":53208,"journal":{"name":"World Federation of Occupational Therapists Bulletin","volume":"79 1","pages":"228 - 235"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2022-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44029524","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
