Katie Sutcliffe researched the career of occupational therapy. She discusses the history of occupational therapy originating from "Occupation Work" in 1917. Occupational therapy helps patients improve their quality of life and function in their daily routines. It is a growing field with therapists typically working in hospitals, rehab facilities, and schools. Occupational therapists develop treatment plans to allow patients to function with their illness, injury, or disability. Her interest profiler showed high scores in social, artistic, and investigative areas aligning with skills needed in occupational therapy.

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

2. Introduction
The career I have chosen to do research on is
occupational therapy. Occupational therapy is
involved in helping other people through the use of
therapeutic methods. It is a common goal to improve
a patient’s quality of life and to function at their best
within their everyday environment. Since this career
is growing, I have decided to research and present
the facts for this profession.
3. The History of Occupational Therapy
Occupational therapy was originally called “Occupation
Work”.
The National Society for the Promotion of Occupational
Therapy was established in 1917. This organization was later
named the American Occupational Therapy Association.
Occupational therapy grew dramatically in the 1920s and
1930s. After the start of World War I, therapists were vey
much needed to care for soldiers.
Occupational therapy obtained more awareness in 1947
because of the military, which allowed federal funding for
therapy education.
The profession of Occupational Therapy became more
centered around “prevention, quality, and maintaining
independence” through the 1980s and 1990s (Sensory-
Processing-Disorder.com, n.d.).
4. Work Environments and
Professional Responsibilities
Occupational therapists tend to work in hospitals,
outpatient care facilities, long-term care facilities,
doctor’s offices, schools, and home health.
Occupational therapists are medical providers who
usually work with patients with an illness or some
form of injury or disability. They develop treatment
plans that allow the patients to be functional in their
day-to-day routines (Bureau of Labor Statistics,
2014).
5. Salary
The median annual income for
occupational therapists is $74,400.
The lower portion of the profession (10%)
earns a salary below $50,500 while the
upper portion (10%) earns over $107,070
(Bureau of Labor and Statistics, 2014).
6. Growth Potential
Occupational therapy has an expected
career growth of 29% within the years of
2012-2022.
The future job availability for occupational
therapy is 32,800 (Bureau of Labor Statistics,
2014).
7. Education and Licensure
A Bachelor’s Degree
and prerequisite classes
are required before
entry into a Master’s
Degree in Occupational
Therapy.
Occupational therapy
require students to take
and pass a State
Licensure Exam
(Bureau of Labor
Statistics, 2014).
8. Why I am Qualified
I am a senior at Clemson University majoring in
Health Science with a concentration in
Preprofessional Health Studies.
My cumulative GPA is a 3.65 out of a 4.00.
My experience of learning and working with the
human body has been gained through the
following:
I was an undergraduate lab assistant for Anatomy
and Physiology for the Fall of 2014.
I have observed therapists at Oconee Memorial
Hospital for 67 hours (2014) and volunteered at
Sports Plus Physical Therapy for 78 hours (2013).
I have also shadowed medical professionals for 120
hours at The Regional Medical Center (2012).
9. Why I am Qualified
(Continued)
I have a hard work ethic and am very determined to learn as
much as I can. I believe that the following honors showcase
this:
I have been an Enhanced LIFE Scholarship Recipient since
2012.
In 2014, I became a member of Eta Sigma Gamma National
Health Education Honorary, Alpha Epsilon Delta Health
Preprofessional Honor Society, Sigma Alpha Lambda National
Leadership and Honors Organization.
I also earned a spot on the President’s List (Fall 2013, Spring
2014) and the Dean’s List (Fall 2014).
The love that I have for helping others can be seen through
the following:
I have been involved in Gamma Sigma Sigma National Service
Sorority since 2013.
I was also a Health Science Major Mentor in the Fall of 2014.
Lastly, I am a member of the Student Health Advisory
Committee as of Spring 2015.

11. O*Net Interest Profiler Results
Interest Area Scores
Social
Artistic
Investigative
Conventional
Realistic
Enterprising
(O*Net, n.d.)
12. My Skills
The top score I obtained in my O*Net Interest Profiler Results was in
the Social area. I thought this was very appropriate as a top score for
myself because I am very personable and friendly. I have been
volunteering for Gamma Sigma Sigma National Service Sorority since I
was a freshman at Clemson. I believe this shows my love of service,
helping others, and meeting new people. I was also a Major Mentor for
Heath Science, which I shows how I am able to connect and relate to
others in order to be helpful to them.
My second highest score was in the Artistic area. I have always
enjoyed creating and designing things. I recently went to an art studio to
create coasters for my apartment. I was able to create something
beautiful as well as practical. This quality is especially important for
occupational therapists from what I have witnessed as a volunteer in the
past.
13. My Skills
(continued)
The third highest score from my interest profiler was in the
Investigative area. This score was actually one point lower
than the Artistic score I received. I have always been a
curious person. I am a Health Science major, which includes
knowing “how?” and “why?” type questions relating to the
public’s health. I am also currently considering a minor in
Psychology because I love studying how the mind works. As a
medical provider you have to be able to know not only what a
patient's diagnosis is, but you have to be able to listen to the
patients and find out information that way. Being investigative
is definitely necessary in the medical field.
I scored very low to none in the Realistic, Enterprising, and
Conventional interest areas. I realized what my interests are
as I have grown older and gained more experience, therefore
having a low score is appropriate for these areas.
14. Conclusion
Overall, occupational therapy is an expanding
field with a lot to offer. The profession has its own
rewards and benefits, but there are negative
aspects as well. Each career has its own unique
concerns that should also be taken into
consideration. As far as choosing a career in the
medical field, much thought should be given to the
educational training, salaries, responsibilities, and
overall interests in order make a final career
decision.
