Editor's Notes
- The Centennial Vision and Current Trends and Issues in the Field: AOTA and its Centennial vision Occupation AOTF and WFOT Slagle lectures Read O&H Ch. 4 and 6 and Appendix 16 in QRD. Set up Twitter account. To consider: Which of the emerging practice areas discussed in Chapter 4 do you find more interesting and why? What is the Centennial Vision and what is its purpose? Describe the mission of the American Occupational Therapy Association in your own words. Do you think the ambiguity often noted in defining the terms of the occupational therapy profession is a pro or a con to those of us in the field? Why?
- “We envision that occupational therapy is a powerful, widely recognized, science-driven, and evidence-based profession with a globally connect and diverse workforce meeting society’s occupational needs” (AOTA, 2007) Opening Challenge: What is the Centennial Vision and what is its purpose? Purpose: Written to serve as a road map for the profession 2003 – Board approved plan 2004 – scenarios developed 2005 – extensive national dialogue 2006 – strategic directions retreat, planning and communication 2006 – 2017 – strategic implementation
- One thing reflected in the Centennial Vision is the commitment to return to the roots of the profession: occupation. Define occupation in your own words. “Activities, of everyday life, named, organized, and given values and meaning by individuals and a culture. Occupation is everything people do to occupy themselves, including looking after themselves … enjoying life … and contributing to the social and economic fabric of communities.”
