The OTPF
The OTPF is a document that provides the guidelines for occupational therapy practitioners to guide their practice. It outlines the factors that can affect a client including client factors, performance skills, performance patterns, context and environment, and activity demands. It also provides the domains that occupational therapy practitioners use to assess a client. Domains are activities that people find meaningful. Then the document discusses the process of evaluation, intervention, and outcome measures. The OTPF ultimately establishes a uniform terminology for practitioners to follow.
