OCC 721 Fieldwork I – Older Adult

This course provides students with opportunities for observation and participation of all areas of the occupational therapy process, including evaluation, intervention and discontinuation of services for a variety of older adult populations and levels of care. Experiences will include addressing the psychosocial aspects of the client, caregiver and families. The level I fieldwork week concludes with a debriefing session to review all objectives and intended outcomes. The debriefing on the fieldwork will facilitate discussion around the potential for formulating specific research questions or proposals for program development that can be executed during the Doctoral Capstone Experience. This course takes place over one (1) week in trimester two (2).
