DESCRIPTION

Enabling Performance and Participation Across the Lifespan
As availability of rehabilitation services for cancer increases, occupational therapy practitioners must be prepared to meet the needs of this population. Cancer and Occupational Therapy equips clinicians to meet clients' needs across the cancer care continuum, from diagnosis to treatment to survivorship or end of life.
Cancer and its treatment create challenges, disruptions, and obstacles to full participation in life roles and everyday activities. The growing population of cancer survivors across the lifespan presents an immediate challenge and opportunity for occupational therapy practitioners to provide occupation-focused, evidence-based interventions that support participation.

As availability of rehabilitation services for cancer increases, occupational therapy practitioners must be prepared to meet the needs of this population.
