Maarten, Just received your email. There is a tool called the "Canadian Occupational Performance Measure" that I used in school that encompasses all aspects of functioning related to patient occupation. See if your textbooks carry a sample. If not, ask your state or nationwide agency to direct you to a copy. I think you'll find it helpful. It was one of my favorite tools in school. Hope this helps.

title: Analysis of vocational activities I'm a fresh occupational therapist in Belgium (my mothertongue is dutch). I work in a mental health center. My task here is to make an analysis of all occupations that we offer in our different activitycentres (bicycle-reparation, bookbinding, printing, garden, semi-industrial). Now patients are still orientated to an occupation on a very subjective basis. By analysing all tasks (physical, cognitive, psychosocial demands) and putting all information in a sort of a manual, we can see wich skills are needed to perform a task and make a more effective and faster orientation of patients to a daily occupation. I will have to design an instrument that can connect someones profile (capacities and desires) to an occupation in one of the activitycentres. Or an instrument that gives an overview of all tasks and their demanded skills that we offer. My questions are: Do such instruments yet exist? Who uses them? Can somebody give me any information about this topic, or links? Who wants to change thoughts. Maarten Van Tulder. [EMAIL PROTECTED] OPZ Geel t.a.v.
