Neurocognitive Rehabilitation: Skills or Strategies?
American Journal of Occupational Therapy : Official Publication of the American Occupational Therapy Association 2018 November
The author describes personal and professional milestones in becoming an occupational therapist and his early experience in the first behavior disorder program for neurologically based aggression in the world. A real clinical example is used to bring these early lessons into vivid focus. New evidence underlines occupational therapists' unique role in skill-habit training in clients with severe neurological impairment. For clients with milder impairments, irrespective of diagnosis, strategy training may maximize community independence and reduce hospital recidivism. The concept of functional cognition is described as an important development for the profession. Even in an environment of rapid innovation, occupational therapists need to recognize that it is the commonplace activities that have meaning for the individual that really matter. This is both the art and science of occupational therapy, and it will never be superseded by technological innovation because true creativity and genuine empathy cannot be mechanized.
