On today’s episode we speak with the chair of occupational therapy at Ithaca college and the chair of AOTA’s Commission on Practice, Dr. Julie Dorsey. We discuss the importance and process of developing the practice framework, review the updates and changes to the guiding document of our profession, and explore the OTPF 4th edition’s implications for everyday practice.
