Occupational Therapy for Musculoskeletal Conditions & Arthritis (Canada)

The focus of the Occupational Therapy for Musculoskeletal Conditions & Arthritis (Canada) PSP is on practice-based occupational therapy.

Occupational therapy aims to enable people living with Musculoskeletal conditions and arthritis to participate in daily activities and meaningful life roles at home, work, for leisure and socially, and to enhance well-being and quality of life. It involves the use of individualized assessment and customized interventions, such as splints, assistive devices and strategies, to help people living with Musculoskeletal conditions and arthritis develop, recover, or maintain engagement in activities they find meaningful.

This PSP will identify the unanswered questions about this from the shared perspective of those people who it affects most, and then prioritise those unanswered questions that these people agree are the most important for research to address.
