Strategies
What are the best ways to achieve this
goal?
The best way to achieve this
goal is to plan ahead. If I know
that I will be leading an
intervention, is it possible for
me to gain more information
on the client that I will be
working with beforehand? If
so, this will allow me to come
prepared to the session with
either having refreshed my
knowledge or have learned
something new by seeking
additional information on
interventions for certain
conditions or deficits.
The best way to achieve this
goal is to simply make a
conscious effort to think about
each aspect of the domain as I
am coming up with strategies.
I think that will this mindset I
can make decisions that are all
encompassing and avoid
things like tunnel vision or
only focusing on deficits rather
than the person as a whole.
The best way to achieve this
goal is to be adaptable with
Resources
What do I need to help me achieve this?
I will need my notes from
previous courses as well as
access to a database. This will
allow me to look at the most
recent literature and find
information that I need based
on the client I am working
with.
Using my OTPF, the client, and
the client’s team will help me
to achieve this goal. Again, I
want my decisions to be all
encompassing which means I
will need to utilize several
different points of view as it
relates to occupational
performance.
The client is my best resource
in this case. I need to listen to
Success Indicators Target Date
How will I know I achieved it? When do I plan to achieve it?
I think coming prepared to End of level II
sessions with a plan that is
backed by current evidence
will be a success indicator. If I
find myself having the client
do things but I’m not exactly
sure why, this would be a bad
sign that I am not succeeding
at my goal.
If my goals and treatment End of level II
sessions reflect the person as
a whole and reflect good
judgement, I think this goal is
met.
The clients buy in and interest End of level II
in therapy is a good measure.

Performance skills-
I will, by the end of field

from intake to discharge
for a minimum of 10

Ethical reasoning-
I will, by the end of

read social cues as to whether
the client is understanding
what I am trying to teach as
well as understanding why it is
important and related to them
and their goals.
The best way to achieve this
goal is to exercise my
knowledge from the
classroom, be as hands on as
possible, ask question about
what the therapist is doing
and why they are doing it, and
then apply all of this to the
clients that the therapist will
let me have greater autonomy
with.
The best way to achieve this
goal is to apply previously
learned ethics as well as ask to
read about the ethical codes
for the facility. This way, as I
am faced with ethical
dilemmas, I can made
informed decisions.

and understand what is
important to them. I can also
pay close attention to their
learning styles and build off
those.
The therapist I will be working
with as well as all of my notes
and knowledge from OT
school.
Any ethical codes or training
the facility can provide as well
as my own knowledge of
ethics from school and life in
general.
If they are engaged and
confident that what we are
doing is going to help them do
the things that they both want
and need to do, then I would
say I succeeded at my goal.
I think receiving good End of level II
feedback, feeling confident in
my abilities, and being able to
work with clients while
making my own decisions
instead of constantly looking
to the therapist to help me
will be a good indicator of
success for this goal.
When faced with an ethical End of level II
dilemma, I think my ability to
handle the situation correctly
will be an indication of my
success with this goal.
