7 OT Principles
Definition
1. Activity contains ingredients by which an ill or disabled individual may gain understanding of and control over one's own feelings, thoughts and actions; habits of attention and interest; usefulness of occupation; creative expression; the process of learning by doing; skill; and concrete evidence of personal accomplishment.
2. Variations of activity provide opportunities to balance the larger rhythms of life: work, play, rest, and sleep which must remain balanced if health is to be regained, maintained or attained.
3.Purposeful occupation involves the intricate interplay of the mind and body, which cannot be separated if the human being is to engage in activity.
4. Involvement in remedial acticity has as a major purpose the acquiring or restoring of usefulness to one's self and others as a happy, productive human being.
5.The patient is the product of his or her own efforts, not the article made nor the activity accomplished.
6. One's approach to the patient is as significant to treatment and rehabilitation as is the selection and use of an activity.
7. A knowledge of the patient's needs, an appreciation of the pain that accompanies an illness or disability, a strong desire to reduce or remove it, and a gentle firmness are among the major characteristics of the provider of therapeutic occupations.
