Objective: The objective
of the activity is to assist the client in feeling a sense of
control.
Description: Each pt will
select a profession, i.e., RT, OT, Social Worker, Nurse, House
Keeping etc. To pts can select the same profession. After this
they will spend time (a day or two) preparing their work and
then they will perform their duty, i.e., RT can do a leisure
awareness session, OT direct a gardening session, Nurse a session
talking about why should we quit smoking etc.
Provide each client time to learn
about the profession they chose. He/she can be matched up with
an OT, nurse, etc and spent supervised time preparing for this
session.
When all clients have completed
their presentations, have a discussion about about responsibilities,
how we can have the control of our lives, etc. |
