purposeful activity or interventions designed to achieve functional outcomes
which promote health, prevent injury or disability and which develop, improve,
sustain or restore the highest possible level of independence. They need to
have the ability to perceive, desire, recall, plan and carry out roles,
routines, tasks and sub-tasks for the purpose of self-maintenance,
productivity, leisure and rest in response to demands of the internal and/or
external environment.

Education: The profession of occupational therapy
appeals to people who enjoy thinking creatively and flexibly to solve problems
and who value working with a diverse group of individuals in their life
activities. Occupational therapists assist people of all ages with disabilities
to perform activities important in their daily lives. These activities may
include self-care, work, education, or play and leisure. Occupational therapists
work with people who have physical illness or injury, social or emotional
difficulties, congenital or developmental problems, or who are in need of
preventative strategies to enhance health and well-being.
Occupational therapy (OT) services focus
on increasing independence, enhancing development, providing compensatory
strategies, and minimizing or preventing disability. Therapists adapt
activities and environments, select therapy activities meaningful to clients,
and provide client and caregiver education. For example, an OT may teach
adaptive dressing techniques to a client who has lost use of her hand following
a stroke, help a child with autism interact with peers, or modify a computer
for a young adult with a spinal cord injury returning to work.
Occupational therapists practice in
rehabilitation centers, outpatient rehabilitation clinics, schools, hospitals,
mental health facilities, private practice, skilled nursing facilities, home
healthcare, and community health programs. The most common work settings for
occupational therapists are school systems (34.4%), hospitals (25.3%), and
long-term care facilities (13.4%). The current and future job outlook for
occupational therapists is excellent.

“Vision without action is a daydream. Action without
vision is a nightmare.”
-Japanese
Proverb
Reflection
What Japanese Proverb was trying to mean or
say is that if you don’t take action your goals, and then don’t expect them to get
to you. Because there is people that work hard for their goal and there is just
other people that expect them to get to you .And it doesn’t work that way.

Glenn Cunningham (Athlete)
Glenn Cunningham went through a
terrible accident when he was young. When he was 8 years of age, he went to a
schoolhouse and there was a mistake instead of putting kerosene they put
gasoline and there was an explosion. And was very badly burned from his legs.
He was so distressed that his parents did not let doctors amputate his legs. He
had a brother his name was Floyd and he died in the accident that happened in
the schoolhouse.
Reflection:
In my opinion Glenn Cunningham was a very brave man. Cause he went though a lot wen he was a little boy. His brother died and was still strong. They were about o amputate his legs and his parents did not allow it.But yet became a champion in the 800 mile run and other things. I admire Glenn Cunningham because he is a very strong and brave man. I think it is amazing to a person achieve that way.
