Abstract

Occupational therapists are seeking opportunities in new practice arenas due to health care changes, identification of occupation-based needs in the community and a renewed dedication to occupation-centered care. It is imperative that the profession continue to meet the demands of a changing work environment by adequately preparing occupational therapy students. Innovative activities in a variety of settings are increasingly used by educational programs to provide fieldwork experiences for students. Descriptions and definitions of these new types of experiences will provide a format for consistent terminology and further enhance optimal involvement in newer arenas.
