Choices....

Occupational therapy is such a diverse field! It's hard to imagine ever getting bored with my career choice. If I don't like one area there are MANY others to choose from! That's the beauty of occupational therapy. For a while, I wanted to work in a rehab setting with patients that have brain and spinal cord injuries. However, I recently switched my interest. I am so fascinated in mental health and as of now I can totally see myself doing that. Some things occupational therapist do in mental health is goal setting, home evaluations, activities of daily living, and coping mechanisms. Although, I want to try everything and I guess that's what field work is for!
