Occupational Therapy in Primary Care: Determining Receptiveness of Occupational Therapists and Primary Care Physicians to Occupational Therapy in Primary Care

Abstract

Abstract Date Presented 3/30/2017 Barriers to inclusion of occupational therapy in primary care are noted. Occupational therapists (OTs) and primary care physicians (PCPs) were surveyed to determine receptiveness of OTs and PCPs to occupational therapy in this setting when barriers were addressed. Results suggest that OTs and PCPs are receptive to occupational therapy in this setting if barriers are addressed.
