Domain & Process
![Page 2: The Occupational Therapy Practice framework: Domain & Process](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d155503460f949ea7ad/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
The Occupational Therapy Practice framework
• an evolution of UniformTerminology III
• a broader document– Describes the profession's DOMAlN– Describes the PROCESS used to deliver services
![Page 3: The Occupational Therapy Practice framework: Domain & Process](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d155503460f949ea7ad/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Background—history of UT
• three editions (79, '89, '94)• Each evolved—purpose shifted• UT III reviewed in 1999 to determine need for
revision
![Page 4: The Occupational Therapy Practice framework: Domain & Process](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d155503460f949ea7ad/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
What we found out...
• Knowledge has evolved—Practice has changed• Our language was unclear to external
audiences—and sometimes to ourselves• UT does not describe our focus on occupation
—the core of our profession• Consensus—it's time to change
![Page 5: The Occupational Therapy Practice framework: Domain & Process](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d155503460f949ea7ad/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Purpose of the Framework
• More clearly articulate OT's unique focus on daily life activities and interventions that promote engagement in occupations to support participation in context—
• Describe our• Give practitioners a way to think about, talk
about and apply occupation across the OT process-Outline an occupation based OT
![Page 6: The Occupational Therapy Practice framework: Domain & Process](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d155503460f949ea7ad/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Relationship of the domain and the process
• Domain outlines the area in which we provide services--
• Process describes the structural pieces (i.e. evaluation, intervention outcomes) we use when delivering services
• They are interdependent
![Page 7: The Occupational Therapy Practice framework: Domain & Process](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d155503460f949ea7ad/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Our domain...
• The area of human experience in which we offer assistance to others....
• We help others to engage in everyday life activities...or....
![Page 8: The Occupational Therapy Practice framework: Domain & Process](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d155503460f949ea7ad/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Occupation
• Defined as:• Activities., of everyday life, named, organized,
and given value and meaning by individual and a culture. Occupation is everything people do to occupy themselves, including looking after themselves,...enjoying life,...and contributing to the social and economic fabric of their communities...(Law, Polatajko, Baptiste, & Townsend, 1997, p. 32)
![Page 9: The Occupational Therapy Practice framework: Domain & Process](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d155503460f949ea7ad/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Engagement in Occupation to Support Participation in Context
Performance in areas of occupation
Performance skills Performance patterns
Context Activity Demands Client Factors
![Page 10: The Occupational Therapy Practice framework: Domain & Process](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d155503460f949ea7ad/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Engagement in Occupation to Support Participation in Context
• The overarching phrase that describes the domain
![Page 11: The Occupational Therapy Practice framework: Domain & Process](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d155503460f949ea7ad/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Why was this phrase chosen?
• Engagement—recognizes choice, personal meaning, psychological/emotional and physical aspects of performance
• • Participation—an aspect of health in the ICF model, OTs contribution to health is in linking activities and participation through engaging in occupations
• • Context—supports and mediates engagement
![Page 12: The Occupational Therapy Practice framework: Domain & Process](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d155503460f949ea7ad/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Other aspects Of domain i.e. performance in areas of occupation, performance skills, performance patterns,
context, activity demands, client factors
• No one aspect more important than another• Ail aspects influence engagement in
occupations• OTs and OTAs consider all aspects during
evaluation and intervention process
![Page 13: The Occupational Therapy Practice framework: Domain & Process](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d155503460f949ea7ad/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Performance in Areas of Occupation
• Categories of occupation in which people engage
• Called performance areas in UTIII• Resorted and expanded from UTIII
![Page 14: The Occupational Therapy Practice framework: Domain & Process](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d155503460f949ea7ad/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Performance Skills—NEW
• Some Performance Components In• UT III were Performance Skills• Describes observed actions...lifts, chooses,
asks• 3 kinds of skills
-Motor skills-Process skills- Communication /Interaction skills
![Page 15: The Occupational Therapy Practice framework: Domain & Process](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d155503460f949ea7ad/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Performance in Areas of Occupation
• Activities of Daily Living (ADL)• Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADL)• Education• Work• Play• Leisure• Social Participation* (new)
![Page 16: The Occupational Therapy Practice framework: Domain & Process](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d155503460f949ea7ad/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Performance Patterns—NEW
• Habits• Routines• Roles• Performance patterns are recurring behaviors
related to daily routines
![Page 17: The Occupational Therapy Practice framework: Domain & Process](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d155503460f949ea7ad/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Performance Skills...
• Performance skill terms differentiate skilled action from underlying body functions
• Skills occur as transactions between the performer's body function/structure, the demands of the activity, and the context in which performance occurs
• Effective skill performance is not ensured by adequate underlying body functions or structures
![Page 18: The Occupational Therapy Practice framework: Domain & Process](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d155503460f949ea7ad/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Context
• Cultural (retained) • Physical (retained) • Social (retained)• Personal (resorted from UT III Temporal context—
refers to age, gender, educational & socio-economic status)
• Spiritual (new)• Temporal (resorted from UT HI Temporal context—
refers to time of day, year, stage of life etc.)• Virtual (new)
![Page 19: The Occupational Therapy Practice framework: Domain & Process](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d155503460f949ea7ad/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Activity Demands—NEW!
• Objects used and theirproperties
• Space Demands• Social Demands • Sequencing and Timing
• Required actions• Required body
functions• Required body
structures
Making OTs use of activity analysis explicit
![Page 20: The Occupational Therapy Practice framework: Domain & Process](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d155503460f949ea7ad/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Activity Demands
• Relate to a specific activity• Different than physical context and social
context
![Page 21: The Occupational Therapy Practice framework: Domain & Process](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d155503460f949ea7ad/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Client Factors—body functions & body structures
• Underlying physiological abilities or structures that reside in the person
• includes mental (affective, cognitive, perceptual), sensory, physical and physiological abilities
• Used classification from ICF— aligned with body systems
• Many included in UT as performance components
![Page 22: The Occupational Therapy Practice framework: Domain & Process](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d155503460f949ea7ad/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

What makes this process unique to OT?
• What is evaluated: occupational needs, problems, risks and concerns
• How the problem is framed: occupational performance—risks or difficulties with daily life tasks
• Type of intervention: use of selected therapeutic activities and occupations to facilitate engagement in occupation
• Outcome: directed toward facilitating engagement in occupation to support participation
![Page 24: The Occupational Therapy Practice framework: Domain & Process](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d155503460f949ea7ad/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Key points about the process
• Client-centered• Clients may be individuals, groups of
populations• Dynamic and interactive• Broad & inclusive of all practice areas• Context an embedded influence on the
process of service delivery• Grounded in occupation
![Page 25: The Occupational Therapy Practice framework: Domain & Process](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d155503460f949ea7ad/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
The Occupational Profile...the initial step
• Describes client's occupational history, patterns of living, interests, values, and needs
• Identify client's priorities. What are client's needs, wants and concerns re: engaging in occupations
• Frame client concerns and issues within the domain of occupational therapy
![Page 26: The Occupational Therapy Practice framework: Domain & Process](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d155503460f949ea7ad/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Analysis of Occupational Performance
• More specifically identify underlying factors which support and hinder performance
-observe performance
-perform selected specific assessments if needed
-consider context, activity demands and client factors-identify client strengths & weaknesses
![Page 27: The Occupational Therapy Practice framework: Domain & Process](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d155503460f949ea7ad/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Intervention Plan
• Develop plan in collaboration with client• Base plan on:
--Selected theory and/or practice framework--Evidence
• Select intervention approach: create/promote, establish/restore, maintain, modify, prevent
• Target desired outcomes
![Page 28: The Occupational Therapy Practice framework: Domain & Process](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d155503460f949ea7ad/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Intervention
• • Action to influence and support performance• • Types of interventions• -Therapeutic use of self• -Therapeutic use of occupations/activities
Occupation-based activity, purposeful activity, preparatory methods
• -Consultation process• -Education process
![Page 29: The Occupational Therapy Practice framework: Domain & Process](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d155503460f949ea7ad/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Intervention Plan
• Review plan, process and progress towards outcomes
• Modify plan if needed • Determine futire action

In SummaryThe Occupational Therapy Practice
Framework: Domain & Process• Affirms the profession's focus on engagement in occupation
to support participation as:• - an important aspect of health• - the broad outcome targeted by OT intervention• Describes and links the profession's domain and process• Emphasizes the profession's expertise in addressing
performance issues related to engaging in every day life occupations and activities. :
• incorporates terms more commonly used by other disciplines
• Adds constructs to the domain & updates terms throughout to reflect current knowledge and thinking
