Summary: The Importance Of Iadls

The Person-Environment-Occupation-Performance (PEOP) model is a suitable model to be applied when working with Paul. This model focuses on occupations and performance (Cole & Tufano, 2008). This model describes occupations as consisting of valued roles, tasks and activities that influence one’s life roles (Cole & Tufano, 2008). “The domain of practice is predominantly selected by the client, who is asked to identify the most important occupational performance issue within the areas of work/productive activities, personal care, home maintenance, sleep, recreation, and leisure” (Cole & Tufano, 2008, pp. 127-128). According to the case study provided, Paul is having increased dependence with self-care and social activity.

The home environment is more that just a physical environment. Peace (2015) groups the home into three categories, the physical environment, the social environment and the psychological environment. These three elements contribute to a person 's individuality, identity and emotional attachment. In contrast, the home can also be a negative and disabling environment. Consequently, it is these emotional attachments that get interrupted in transition. Personal possessions can have great meaning and by using these emotional attachments in a new setting, carers and care worker can help make the transition to a new environment a more positive experience.

According to Petiprin (2015), Dorothea Orem’s theory is used to encourage a person to become more independent. Petiprin (2015) further states that it is true of rehabilitation settings, (Such as,)for example HealthSouth Sunrise Rehabilitation Hospital in which patients are transitioning out of being cared for by physicians and nurses and to exclusive self-care at home. According to George (2011), Dorothea Orem has developed three connecting theories: the theory of self-care, the theory of self-care deficit and the theory of the nurse system. George defines the term metaparadigm as the core content of a discipline (2011). George further states that the metaparadigm of the discipline of nursing comprises of four major concepts: person, health, environment and nursing (2011). At HealthSouth Sunrise Rehabilitation Hospital, the mission of our operations is the delivery of quality healthcare in the most appropriate, safe, patient-centered environment (HealthSouth, 2015). The purpose of this paper is to discuss Dorothea Orem theory, metaparadigm and how it relates to nursing practice at HealthSouth Sunrise Rehabilitation Hospital.

To be able to participate in one 's own life, to do the things we want to do, and to competently perform the activities that form part of our daily, weekly or monthly routines, is a common goal for most people.  This not only includes taking part in the basic activities of self-care, such as grooming and dressing, but also extends to our work and leisure activities.  It is through doing things that we learn and develop as human beings.  The occupational therapy profession believes that being prevented or hindered in some way from participating in the activities that are important to us could adversely affect our health and wellbeing.

Occupational therapists work with clients to restore independence that has been lost or disrupted due to illness, injury, or disease. Occupational therapy practice involves assessing and determining an appropriate treatment approach based on the client’s disability and individual needs. There are various occupation-based models, each client-centered and grounded in theory, that guide the clinical treatment process. In addition, the Occupational Therapy Practice Framework: Domain and Process (3rd ed.; AOTA, 2014) denotes various frames of reference to guide therapists when choosing specific intervention strategies based on the client’s needs (Cole & Tufano, 2018). This paper focuses on the application of the Occupation Adaption model,

Occupational therapy was founded on the principle that participation in meaningful activity is important to the health of individuals. Mental health is very important to the well-being of an individual and those around them. 450 million people experience mental and neurological disorders around the world. These disorders are the leading 5-10 causes of disability worldwide. As services for individuals with mental illness have shifted from the hospital to the community, there has also been a shift in the philosophy of service delivery. In the past, there was an adherence to the medical model; now the focus is on incorporating the recovery model.

As a health practitioner, it is vital to learn how to help individuals to live in their homes comfortably after a life-altering circumstance when they enter, cook, sleep, bathe and all of their other vital occupations. Seeing the impact on the independence of the client does not just impact the individual, but the whole family.

Occupational therapy has been in the process of continued development since the 1900’s. With several contributors helping to build the groundwork for creating the awareness needed to bring occupational therapy into the field of health care. Continued research is contributing to the ongoing significance of how occupational therapy is a vital aspect in promoting increased independences in all aspects of healthcare. (Willard, Schell, 2014) With the incorporation of “Occupational Therapy Practice Framework Domain and Process (3rd ed.)” helps creates the foundation for occupational therapy clinicians as well as other health care providers in facilitating the core believe of occupational and the relationship of health and occupation. (AOTA 2014) Therefore, providing a uniform outline of the various aspects of each individual and how they are interconnected to create the foundation of each individual. With a greater understanding of the foundations of that induvial, the clinician can then facilitate the best therapeutic treatment plan for that individual to achieve their personal goals with unified foundations of care.

Human behavior can be explained by a variety of biological, psychosocial, and environmental factors interacting on a person over time. The values, beliefs, and goals that determine the behaviors one engages in are developed through cognitive processes unique to each individual as a result of the interplay between previous learning and the aforementioned factors. When considered together, the Model of Human Occupation and Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy give an explanation for this view of human behavior. These frames of reference are reviewed in regards to their conceptions of behavior, dysfunction, treatment approach, and their relevance to occupational therapy.

The Personal Environmental Occupational Model (PEO) helps therapists focuses on the ability for a client to efficiently complete their daily occupations and to have the proper environment in which always them to be successful. When using the PEO model the client is active, progressive and inspired to complete and partake in their occupations. A person’s occupations are made of the activities in which the person finds important in partaking in throughout their daily life.
