Abstract

ABSTRACT Provision of access to health care for all people, regardless of their socioeconomic status or where they live, is one of the United Nations’ goals of making health care a universal human right. During the era of coronavirus where movement is restricted including where health facilities are located, e-therapy can be implemented in occupational therapy services to reduce socioeconomic barriers related to health costs and access. This cross-sectional quantitative study design explores the impact of specific e-therapy application in advancing occupational therapy intervention as a rehabilitative profession in supporting clients in low-resourced countries. The study findings show maximum acceptance and high satisfaction level of the clients following e-therapy services; occupational therapists also were satisfied with the implementation of e-therapy services; however, a few therapists were not ready to deliver e-therapy interventions due to different challenges.
