Reflection
Individually, as well as within your team, reflect on
your response to the research you have completed as part of this
module, and the case study of Valerie. As a team, discuss the following
questions:
1. What is the role of OT in the CTO process? Is a CTO congruent with the philosophy of OT? What kind of reasoning is required of an OT in the CTO process?
2. What types of reasoning were used by you and your team most in your analysis of the case study? Are there types of reasoning used more often with this practice population than others? If so, why?
3. What types of clinical reasoning were used to inform the development of an advocacy letter? How did these types of reasoning afford your team the perspective required to advocate for your client?
4. Discuss the importance of developing cognitive schema to develop clinical reasoning for an OT working in mental health.
