The versatility of the profession of Occupational Therapy has given me the opportunity to pursue a career outside a clinical setting, as a Disability Case Manager. As such, I am considered to be practicing a non-traditional form of Occupational Therapy.

For more general information about OT. My pages are part of the OT and Rehab. Ring , which can be entered from a link at the end of any of my pages.

I have founded an informal network of Occupational Therapists who are providing case management services, or who are interested in Case Management as a practice niche. Membership in the network is currently free. If you would like to join you can receive OTCM Network membership questionnaire by automated email and email it back to me after you've completed it.

Once you have returned the completed questionnaire, you will be entitled to a list of current members, and the URL of the most recent newsletter.

If you're interested, you can read the first issue of the OTCM Newsletter .

A Network member and I co-authored an article that appeared in the April, 1998 issue of The Journal of Care Management . The article ("Occupational Therapists: Essential Team Members as Service Providers and Case Managers") is available online .

I've compiled a list of articles related to case management in general, the skills and knowledge needed to be a case manager, and a few references for articles specifically about OTs as Case Managers.

Articles I have written:

"Distinguishing OT From Other Disciplines."

"A Case Study in Activism"

I am an information packrat; and I maintain an ever-growing database of resources related to human services and rehabilitation. Please share with me any information you have found useful, either personally or professionally.

I am the "webmistress" for the University of Minnesota's Program in Occupational Therapy , and for the University of Minnesota's Program in Mortuary Science
