question

answer
1. to increase motivation of the client 2. B/c not everyone's goals are the same
question

answer
to include well-being, quality of life, and the client's continued ability to engage in meaningful activities and to participate in life.
question
What is one con for using the Medical medical and explain?
answer
1. Since the medical model emphasized a reductionistic and mechanistic view of the human body, this backed OT in a corner and limited its scope to only those practices that directly affected SYMPTOMS or restricted independent functioning in ADL. **The medical model was grossly inadequate to meet the needs of clients with ongoing mental or physical health conditions. Many formerly institutionalized mental health clients now live among the homeless or have entered our already overcrowded prison system.
question
What is another con of the Medical model and explain?
answer
Reimbursement systems that follow the guidelines of the medical model have REDUCED access and LIMITED the ways clients can use OT services. Most OT's are aware that neither Medicare nor private health insurance will pay for health services rendered only to "maintain" function for our clients. Progress must be continually demonstrated through the use of valid and reliable assessment tools, mostly research studies using the scientific method. **The medical model has convinced third party payers that HEALTH should be defined as the absence of disease. The client-centered model being adopted by OT and others goes further to include well-being, quality of life, and the client's continued ability to engage in meaningful activities and to participate in life.
question
What are two cons of the Medical Model?
answer
1. Reductionistic and mechanistic view limits the scope to only those practices that directly affected "symptoms" or restricted independent functioning in ADL. 2. Reimbursement systems that follow the guidelines of the medical model have reduced access and limited the ways clients can use OT services.
question
What are two pros for using the Medical Model?
answer
1. Without the medical model, many of the scientific advances of the 20th century would not have been possible 2. The Medical model has brought prestige to OT over the years as an allied health profession. 3. The Medical model gives us a common language with which to communicate with other professionals as more OT's collaborate with treatment teams when providing health care services.
question
What is an example of how scientific advances of the 20th century would not be possible without the Medical model?
answer
Under the guidance of the medical model, OT was able to take advantage of the knowledge developed in the areas of psychiatry, biomechanics, behaviorism, and neurophysiology in the earlier years, which led to some of the most widely used applied theories in OT today (Sensory integration, biomechanical, etc.) The scientific method was used in designing research studies to test these applied theories and to develop valid and reliable assessment tools.
question
What is an example of how the medical model has brought prestige to OT?
answer
-Educational programs for OT were jointly accredited by the American Medical Association, requiring students to take classes in Anatomy, Physiology, Neurology, and physical and mental health conditions. **The medical preparation has influenced public recognition for OT professionals as equals with other professions such as physical therapy and encouraged our continued national certification and state licensure... Setting us apart from less "scientific" professions

Principle of Client-Centered Practice: Autonomy and Choice
answer
The therapist enters the therapeutic relationship under the assumption that the client has the right to direct his or her own therapy. This concept stems from Maslow's belief that people are intrinsically motivated to improve their own condition of life.
question
Principle of Client-Centered Practice: Respect for Diversity

The therapist needs to develop an attitude of unconditional positive regard. This means refraining from making value judgements about the client's character based on our own standards and viewpoint.
question

question

question
Principle of Client-Centered Practice: Contextual Congruence: Recognizing Environmental Conditions and Demands
answer
Contexts are external or environmental considerations that influence the performance of an activity or occupation. In the performance of a task, contextual congruence means that the external features of the environment fit, encourage, or facilitate the performance.

question
Principle of Client-Centered Practice: Accessibility and Flexibility

The client-centered therapist approaches each client as an individual with a unique experience of a health condition and a different configuration of contextual factors, that influence his or her problems with occupational performance.
