OT processes in discharge planning: Clarifying our Role

While discharge planning might appear as a specialization in the field of occupational therapy, it is better understood as a comprehensive process that is critical for patient care. Through assessments, education, and personalized planning, occupational therapists ensure that patients are well-equipped to continue their recovery journey at home. This not only benefits the patients but also provides peace of mind to their families, knowing that they are supported by experts in the field.
