Psychosocial Evaluation and Intervention Recitation provides additional hands-on and experiential learning opportunities in an established community program for all students enrolled in OT 760. This recitation allows students the opportunity to develop the skills needed to work in mental/behavioral health settings.

In this course, students will develop entry-level practice skills for conducting occupational therapy (OT) evaluations and interventions for children. Organized around the OT Practice Framework, students will learn how to collaborate with families and other professionals, develop clinical observation skills, and learn frequently used standardized assessments. Additionally, students will use primary OT frames of reference to plan and implement interventions. Students will apply their understanding of typical and atypical child development, and extend their clinical reasoning skills in order to develop competencies for providing OT services for children and with a variety of conditions across common practice settings.

The recitation provides hands-on experiences to compliment lecture material from OT 762 and OT 762L, and to provide opportunities for the practical application of knowledge.
