Abstract The purpose of this article is to inform occupational therapy practitioners about the concept of spiritual suffering and to reaffirm a focus on spirituality. Through an understanding of existential and postmodern philosophy, practitioners may address the lived experience of spiritual suffering that may go unnoticed due to time, knowledge, understanding, and the social-cultural factors that affect service delivery. This article expands on the construct of spirituality as defined in the Occupational Therapy Practice Framework (4th ed.) and provides a lens for knowledge translation to assist practitioners in narrative assessment and mindful treatment regarding spiritual suffering.

Abstract Current literature examines nontraditional occupational therapy (OT) fieldwork experiences from the students’ perspective while investigating the professional identity within these settings. There is a lack of research from the perspective of other professionals working with students in these settings. This qualitative study identified six themes from interviews with non-OT professionals working in psychosocial settings: OT is a holistic/client-centered profession, individual professional growth, common skills of an OT, benefits of OT, student preparation, and sustainability of services. Results indicate that nontraditional fieldwork heightened awareness of the OT profession and marketed its value in community-based psychosocial settings.

Abstract A bibliometric analysis was performed to examine the occupational therapy peer-reviewed literature addressing interventions for children and adolescents with mental health disorders (1980–2019). The search strategy yielded 82 articles that have not produced significant support for the profession’s role in this practice area, have not been well-cited, and may not be readily accessible by stakeholders. A third of this literature addressed children with ADHD using sensory-based approaches. Depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder were addressed comparatively less. The profession must increase advocacy to enhance awareness of therapists’ role in this practice area and engage in research supporting practice.

Abstract The United States is in the midst of an opioid epidemic that affects family systems, yet little is known about the experiences of parents who abuse substances. Five fathers with a substance use disorder, all over the age of 18, and having at least one child, were participants. Qualitative methods were used to uncover how these fathers view their journey of parenthood. In-depth interviews were conducted using the Kawa model as a conceptual framework to gain a comprehensive understanding of their experiences. Four themes emerged. More research is needed to better understand these meaningful occupations and the role gender plays.

Abstract This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of two different occupational therapy interventions applied to university students with severe nomophobia. Forty-six participants were assigned to client-centered (CC) and time management (TM) intervention groups. Before and after intervention, participants’ time management skills were evaluated with the time management questionnaire (TMQ), occupational performance and satisfaction were evaluated with the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM), and nomophobia levels were evaluated with Nomophobia Questionnaire (NMP-Q). Both groups improved in NMP-Q, TMQ, and COPM within-group comparisons (p < 0.001). The interventions can be used to reduce nomophobia increase time management skills and increase perceived occupational performance and satisfaction.

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.

Abstract This paper provides insight into the health disparities prevalent among people experiencing homelessness and the impact on daily activities using the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health framework and the World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0. Persons experiencing homelessness reported that physical and psychological health conditions profoundly impacted daily functioning. The most impacted global domains included the emotional aspects of difficulties due to health problems, joining in community activities (Participation), moving and getting around (Mobility), and domestic responsibilities (Life activities).

Abstract This study aimed to determine the clinical utility of the Dream Home Assessment (DHA), a projective and executive function assessment for adults with mental health and substance use disorders. Participants included 23 clinicians. The majority affirmed its usefulness. 82% stated that they would use it in their practice. Its primary strengths were identified as themes: engaging and enjoyable, creative, assesses non-routine executive function skills, and convenient to use. Its primary weaknesses were time constraints, overly challenging tasks, triggers strong emotions, and barriers to material use. The study provides preliminary evidence of the clinical utility of the DHA.

Abstract The aim of this study was to test the effectiveness of an occupational therapy program to promote well-being in people with experiences of mental illness. The method was a multicentre collaborative study. The intervention group participated in an occupational therapy program to promote well-being in addition to the standard program of day hospital/psychiatric occupational therapy, while the control group only participated in the standard program only. Results showed that the intervention group had effects on three factors, including “Positive emotions,” “Willingness to ask for help,” and “Achievement.” The effectiveness of this program needs to be further tested in a randomized controlled trial.
