Occupational Therapy Month

April is National Occupational Therapy Month - a time to celebrate, acknowledge, and commend our provider and faculty's exceptional clinical care, education, and research.

Occupational therapy focuses on optimizing what can be achieved in daily life. Its interventions use life activities (occupations) to promote health, well-being, and participation in important activities. This includes meaningful activities a person wants to accomplish, including caring for themselves and their family, working, volunteering, attending school, and many others.

We celebrate these efforts this month and look forward to advancing occupational therapy practice, training, and research.

Please join us in celebrating National Occupational Therapy Month and recognizing the great work of all Duke occupational therapists and department members in our occupational therapy division!
