Practice Domain assignment – Stacy, an autistic 10-year old Case
$10.00Pediatrics – Practice Domain assignment
Description of Assignment
Students will become more familiar with the domains from the OT Practice Framework by selecting one item from each domain and, using their own words, describing each item chosen and giving examples. Students will base their description of the items and examples on the case study assigned to them (see below).
Students will list three professional organizations, community agencies or associations that the parents of children, adults or older adults could call for information or resources; students will provide a brief description of each resource.
Students will conclude their paper with a written script for the 30 second elevator speech, defining / describing what occupational therapy is.
This paper should be two pages.Section 1
Each student will be assigned a developmental age group on which to base his or her paper (i.e., pediatrics, adults, geriatrics). Please use whichever one of the following case studies fits with the developmental age group assigned to you.
Pediatrics
Stacy, an autistic 10-year old, is having difficulty focusing in class. Because of this, she is acting out and throwing tantrums. The teacher is having difficulty keeping Stacy focused and staying calm.
1. Read the case that corresponds to the developmental age group assigned to you.
2. Relate the case to the domains of the OT Practice Framework.
The five domains of OT practice include the areas of occupation, client factors, performance
skills, performance patterns, context and environment. Select one item under each of the six domains. Use your own words to describe each item and give examples.
e.g., If Performance Patterns – Roles were selected the student would write: If I was to determine what client roles were impacted by his or her disability, I would describe the client’s roles as spouse, parent, son or daughter, worker, student, grandparent, etc.Section 2
List three organizations or community agencies that the client (or parents or caregivers) might find useful. Briefly describe the purpose of each of the three resources you provide. Organizations that require membership are unacceptable for this assignment (e.g., American OT Association). Please use entities accessible to the general public.Section 3
Throughout your career, you will answer the following question hundreds of times — “What is occupational therapy?” This part of the assignment is meant to give you a start on coming up with a definition or description of the profession of occupational therapy to help answer that question. Imagine that friends or relatives ask you about occupational therapy; what will you tell them?
End your paper with a written script of a ‘30 second elevator speech’ that defines and/or describes the profession of occupational therapy. This is often called an ‘elevator speech’ because it must be succinct enough that you could start talking when getting on the elevator with the CEO of your hospital on the first floor and finish your explanation of occupational therapy when the elevator door opens at the third floor!Real Wages and Productivity—Are Workers’ Paychecks Keeping Up?
$5.001.Using the Chapter 13 Web-based Question: “Real Wages and Productivity—Are Workers’ Paychecks Keeping Up?”Historically, over the long run, real wages grow at about the same pace as labor productivity. But has real compensation per hour kept up with output per hour over the latest 3 years shown? Go to the Bureau of Labor Statistics website, www.bls.gov/lpc/ to find the answer. What you are looking for is the most current information on percentage changes in output per hour of all persons in the business sector (labor productivity) and percentage changes in real compensation per hour.
[Hint: This is not a 5 minute look up assignment. You will need to learn to navigate around the Bureau of Labor Statistics website to answer this. Also this question does not ask you to cut and paste the tables of info, but rather asks you to interpret the info. The tutorial or FAQ sections on the BLS site may help if you are impatient.]
2.Using the Chapter 13 “Origin of Idea” module, identify those who gave us the concepts of “monopsony” and “human capital,” and explain what those terms mean in your own words.
3.In terms of the Supply and Demand for labor, how are the minimum wage and union wages similar and how are they different? Think about the markets for these two and use economic analysis in your answer. Chapter 13 is your guide to this one.
