Abstract
Abstract The Model of Human Occupation (MOHO) is cited as the predominant theoretical model used by occupational therapists in forensic mental health (FMH). This mixed-methods case study aimed to explore how MOHO is used to improve patient outcomes, and the benefits and challenges experienced in its use. The study also investigated how participants’ education and use of professional development influenced their use of MOHO. MOHO was found to be beneficial in informing patient-centred practice in FMH. However, forensic occupational therapists must be supported to continue developing their understanding of MOHO to attain the full benefits of its use.
