Overview
About this Program
Our Doctor of Occupational Therapy program from University of New Haven help patients improve their daily lives, to help patients recover from accidents and illnesses, and work collaboratively in teams with other health professionals to help patients meet their goals. Occupational Therapists work in a wide range of settings including:
- Acute care hospitals
- Rehabilitation hospitals
- Long term care and skilled nursing facilities
- Schools and other educational settings
Occupational therapy is an evidence-based profession dedicated to promoting health, well-being, and quality of life in persons, communities, and populations. The Program believes in the value of occupation for individuals who are experiencing, or are at risk of experiencing, limited participation in everyday life. It asserts that meaningful engagement in occupation is essential to maintaining overall health, promoting healthy lifestyles, and wellness; minimizing the impacts of impairment; prevention of disease or injury; and adaptation as a part of development and continued living. While many health professions share these beliefs, occupational therapy is unique in its focus on occupation, i.e., meaningful doing, as both the means and the outcome of intervention by changing the person’s or groups’, contexts, and ways of doing meaningful occupations.
