Roles and functions of occupational therapy in mental health
Abstract:
Within the scope of general psychiatry, occupational therapy personnel work in a broad range of practice areas and settings. Services are provided to children, adolescents, adults, and the elderly of all functional levels and diagnostic categories, in institutional, community-based, partial hospitalization, residential treatment, and forensic psychiatry programs. In all programs, the focus is goal-directed use of time, energy, interest, and attention to foster adaptation and productivity, minimize pathology, and promote the maintenance of health.
