Occupational Therapy Goals

Setting clear goals in occupational therapy is essential because it provides a roadmap for the therapy process, allows for measurable progress tracking, and ensures interventions are personally relevant and achievable for the client.

An example of a goal might be: "Client will independently prepare a simple meal using adaptive equipment within six weeks to promote self-reliance at home."

Appropriate assessment tools or observational methods may be used to track progress. Measurable goals could involve aspects like time, accuracy, frequency, or the level of assistance needed.
