Enabling occupation for populations: Use of occupational performance models and frameworks by occupational therapists employed in strategic planning and policy environments

Register by Monday, February 18, 2019 at 11:59 p.m. (Eastern time)

Presenters: Shannon Berg & Angela Sekulic

The Canadian Model of Occupational Performance and Engagement (CMOP-E), the Canadian Model of Client-Centred Enablement (CMCE) as well as the Canadian Practice Process Framework (CPPF) are useful guides for occupational therapists working in non-traditional roles such as health or social service planning and policy development. For example, key skills in the CMCE, particularly “adapt”, “collaborate”, “consult”, “design/build”, “educate” and “engage” are foundational for effective enablement of sound, evidence-informed policy. This webinar will illustrate and provide examples of how the lens of occupational therapy practice can be used to view and inform the development and implementation of high-level health system policy where the “client” is not an individual but society as a whole.

After taking part in this webinar, participants will:

Understand how the various models and frameworks for occupational therapy practice can be applied at a system level where the “client” is a population or society.
Recognize the application of key skills in the Canadian Model of Client-Centred Enablement (CMCE) in high level policy development in a broader health system context, such as health region/authority and government roles.
