Celebrating 123 Years of Occupational Therapy

Celebrating 123 Years of Occupational Therapy

Occupational Therapy is a newer and unique addition to the healthcare rehabilitation team. Although the driving concepts behind Occupational Therapy of holistic patient centered care have always been entwined in the medical field, OT wasn’t formalized as a profession until 1920. During WWI “reconstruction aids” provided what we would now consider occupational therapy services to wounded soldiers.
