General Information

Overview

This capstone unit builds upon the foundation knowledge and practice experience you have built throughout the occupational therapy course. The focus of this unit is to equip you to function as an autonomous, evidence-informed new graduate practitioner in Australia. It is comprised of various modules which will advance your professional skills for independent practice. Each module will be offered in semi-block mode to enable immersion in a specialised area of professional practice. The range of modules will be subject to resources including availability of experts to contribute. Depending on the number and scope of modules offered, there may be some choice in which modules you undertake. However, a compulsory module will focus on the application of telehealth for motivational interviewing, a skill in facilitating client behavioural change applicable across caseloads.

Previous Student Feedback

Feedback, Recommendations and Responses

Every unit is reviewed for enhancement each year. At the most recent review, the following staff and student feedback items were identified and recommendations were made.

Feedback from SUTE Unit Comments Report

Feedback

Students who provided feedback have asked that content in a couple of the specialist modules (dementia and home assessment/modifications) be reviewed to ensure only new information is presented rather than a review of content from previous units.

Recommendation

It is recommended that the unit coordinator ask the specialist presenters of those modules to check content to ensure revision of material taught earlier in CB84 is minimised, allowing for more time to be spent on the new, graduate-level content.

Feedback from SUTE Unit Comments Report

Feedback

Students would like even more rehearsal with interventions and practical applications across some modules.

Recommendation

It is recommended that opportunities to apply interventions to case scenarios be highlighted by the educators in the specialist modules.
