OTH 7704 Fieldwork Level II B
The second level II fieldwork provides an in-depth experience in delivering occupational therapy services to clients. Students will complete a total of 24 weeks of Level II fieldwork. The two-level II fieldwork experiences will be at least 12 weeks. The settings will comprise a minimum of 12 weeks in hospital, community, or school-based settings. At least three months of sustained full-time fieldwork is desirable. Fieldwork shall provide experience with various groups across their lifespans, with persons experiencing psychosocial and physical performance deficits, and with service delivery models reflective of current practice in the profession. To ensure the continuity of application of academic concepts, all fieldwork shall be finished within the timeframe set forth by the ASU OT Fieldwork Handbook. Students may be required to travel and stay a significant distance from the university at their own expense. Additionally, students will need computer access and internet capability on a weekly basis. Initially, supervision should be direct and then decreased to less direct supervision as appropriate for the setting, the severity of the client's condition, and the ability of the student to be in accordance with the site-specific objectives.
Prerequisite
Satisfactory progress in the ASU OT program. Students must successfully completed the first six semesters of courses in the ASU Occupational Therapy Program prior to beginning this fieldwork experience.
