Advanced skills are needed by occupational therapy practitioners to integrate database management into various practice models and settings and to collaborate with professionals in health information to develop complex database systems. To meet this need, a demonstration project on interdisciplinary team teaching of database management was created by occupational therapy and health information faculty. The purposes of this article are to (1) explain how Davis' (1995) criteria for successful interdisciplinary team teaching were applied to teach graduate students database management, and (2) present information to assist occupational therapy clinicians in using database management in their practices.The planning, implementation, and evaluation of the team teaching project are described and a five phase approach to database management presented. Database applications in clinical settings in occupational therapy are described.The demonstration project successfully meets its objectives and the authors believe it can be adapted to assist occupational therapy educators and clinicians in the use of databases.
