A profession that involves using occupations for bettering health. Occupations are considered anything that someone likes to do or has to do, ranging from hobbies to
self-care. It is believed that doing things, increasing one's independence and sense of self-worth, promotes health and will help people rehabilitating from a disease or illness, as well as those living with chronic medical conditions. Becoming an
Occupational Therapist in the United States recently moved to an
entry-level master's degree.
Example:
1. My grandmother broke her hip and the
occupational therapist helped her learn to transfer and take care of herself to continue living at home as it healed.
2. A child receives
occupational therapy because he has trouble paying attention and sitting still and they work on how he can better succeed as a student.
3. An occupational therapist was referred to me after I lost two my fingers in a
boating accident to help me regain functional use of my hand.
