Reflection

Consider how you arrived at the recommendations that you have outlined in Jim's return to work plan, and discuss the following questions within your team.

What information prompted you to develop the recommendations that you have?

How would you describe your reasoning process with respect to this case scenario?

What types of reasoning did you use to arrive at these recommendations?

What additional information may have changed the decisions at which you've arrived? How?

How does the Matheson approach lend itself to occupational therapy practice? In what ways, if any, did knowledge of this approach affect your decision making while preparing your RTW plan for Jim?
