      OTAC is partnering with Aspire OT in 2026 to offer FREE CEU's each month for our OTAC members! 

      Occupational Therapy & Self-management: Understanding OT's Role in Treating Chronic Conditions

      Description: According to the National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion​ 6 in 10 adults in the US have a chronic disease.  Chronic disease increases the risk of hospitalization and chronic diseases account for 90% of the annual US healthcare expenditures. Often the implications of chronic conditions can limit an individual's ability to participate in meaningful occupations.  Self-management is an approach that works to educate individuals about their condition and helps them to become active participants in their treatment​.

      This course will discuss self-management in treating chronic conditions and help occupational therapy practitioners understand the distinct value they bring to addressing self-management of chronic conditions in a variety of settings such as acute care, inpatient rehabilitation, skilled nursing, home health, outpatient, school, work and the community.

          Finding Your Voice: Addressing the Under-Recognition of Occupational Therapy in Daily Practice

          Description: How many times have we as OTs OTAs, and students explained what occupational therapy is to only be faced with more confusion by our families, friends, coworkers, and clients?  Maybe you concerned that occupational therapy is not being utilized enough in your setting? 

          Sure, we all do our best, but it's hard to navigate those discussions in our fast-paced work world. Join Kim and Niccole as they delve into the evidence and literature to determine just how under-recognized occupational therapy is and what may contribute to the problem.  

          You may be surprised to find out how OT practitioners are contributing to their own lack of recognition, but don't worry because you will learn strategies that can address this big issue in our profession and how to use them the next time you are at work.  This course provides practical strategies that can easily be implemented into any daily practice setting.

          What better way to combat burnout than to empower ourselves and our amazing profession?

            Beyond Discharge: Redefining Occupational Therapy in Acute Care

            Description: Occupational therapy practitioners (OTPs) play a crucial role in helping clients regain their prior level of functioning. When clients are hospitalized for various reasons, they often experience deficits that impact their ability to perform essential activities of daily living (ADLs) and instrumental activities of daily living (IADLs). In the acute care setting, OTPs are responsible for evaluating clients, providing targeted interventions, and developing comprehensive plans and recommendations for post-hospital care. Our role extends to assessing clients' occupational performance while considering environmental factors, health conditions, and personal circumstances that affect their return to their previous living situation.

            This course will focus on expanding knowledge of occupational therapy's role in acute care, using case studies to demonstrate the integration of both foundational and advanced clinical skills. Emphasis will be placed on evidence-based interventions, which are critical for ensuring clients are discharged to the most appropriate setting, optimizing their recovery.
