Description
This text is the first designed specifically to follow the outline and accompany the presentation of the Management course, now required for all Managing Occupational Therapy and Baccalaureate Occupational Therapy programs. Its primary goal is to introduce students to the use of theory, research and evidence in guiding their practice as future occupational therapy managers. As most occupational therapists are becoming familiar with the concepts of evidence-based practice as it relates to clinical interventions, the same process of identifying, evaluating and applying evidence should similarly govern practice as an occupational therapy manager. Avoiding a how-to approach, the author encourages students to think in terms of these concepts.
