Liz We can celebrate and be proud of a century of development that is ongoing today. Long history of working in the community as well as hospitals and other places, and working on many issues to enable participation in occupations e.g., Jessie Luther (Rhode Island OT at Grenfell Mission) engaged in community development to enable healthy & disabled workers engage in productive occupations
Liz I am proud to look back at my good fortune. I was attracted to join the first national 'Guidelines' Task Force in 1979 at the invitation of Hilary Jarvis, then CAOT President from Nova Scotia. At the time, I was enrolled in a Masters of Adult Education program. This privileged position of being an outsider-insider helped me to see the importance for me - and I believe for all occupational therapists and other professionals - to learn to articulate what we do, what we know, how we work, and why societies might benefit from and want to use the knowledge. Thelma Sumsion, the first Task Force Chair and CAOT President, took introduced the nation to national occupational therapy guidelines funded by the Department of National Health & Welfare. Our review of the literature convinced us that what we have been doing for the last century is what Carl Rogers called client-centred practice.
Liz As a profession in Canada, we can be proud to have almost 30 years of national guidelines development. This history of examining, questioning, and articulating what a profession does from a national perspective appears to be a precedent amongst Canadian professional groups, and unique around the world. While practice guidelines are well known in most professions, Canada can be proud of developing generic, conceptual guidelines for any practice. While they are not as directive as many practice guidelines, they have helped us to uncover and describe the foundations that make it possible to practice occupational therapy in so many different ways & places. CAOT formed a Client-Centred Practice Committee that integrated three original1980s Guidelines into a single volume published by CAOT in 1991. The Committee was based in Nova Scotia and included Lori Multari, our CAOT Board Member. These were adventurous times… including working to publication deadlines despite the weather and power outages! “ 8:00 p.m. Meeting convened at the home of Lori (Multari, NS CAOT Board Member, using candles in power outage] Light beamed steadily on the editorial work of the 1991 Edition… Tea and muffins were served” Shedding Light on the Work of CAOT (NATIONAL, July 1991, p. 6)
Liz I think this should go here and say when it was published we added a second emphasis Occupation Ergo a new model and an dual focus and a change in persective -then over to Helene Liz When Enabling Occupation I was published by CAOT in 1997 with the help of Geraldine Moore then Editor of the Canadian Journal of Occupational Therapy
Helen Start with a clearer articulation of occupation in the then new enabling
helene The 1990s were exciting times in Canadian occupational therapy circles as our Canadian perspective evolved from the early 20 th century post-World War I idea of ‘divergent therapy’ to keep wounded soldiers and people with tuberculosis and other diseases ‘occupied’. A physician, Dunton (1919) already recognized the power of occupational engagement to promote health!
helen Occupational therapy’s evolution from divergent therapy had a fascinating stage in which occupational therapists learned to adapt ‘occupations’ for therapeutic uses for the body, such as using a bicycle saw for exercise, coordination, and work tolerance. A multitude of assistive devices came on the market as aids to daily living. Fred Sammons became a familiar name as an inventor and business man in assistive devices. Muriel Driver, for whom Canada’s premier lectureship is named, wrote in 1968 about occupational therapists’ fascination with technical sciences and the need to understand the profession’s philosophic foundations.
helen Enabling Occupation emerged as a new framing of client-centred practice. The focus returned to the profession’s origins in addressing occupation beyond technical interests in body parts. At this point, the emphasis was largely on individual occupational performance.

Helen One day, we were reflecting on how. Our documentation was dictating something that did not reflect how occupational therapists work with clients process…t here was nothing really occupation based about this form!
Helene This change was transformative … with respect to how we were practicing and how our teams regarded our input. Now we are considered an invaluable profession for our knowledge of helping our clients articulate their goals

Mary I thought this might be a good way to show how the ‘impact’ of the guidelines has been considered – both in terms of sales and the impact on practice Helen: maybe this could go at the end of be proud since it has all three bits

Helene Fran —as the Centre’s Professional Leader—used occupation-based practice as a unifying concept for the newly amalgamated Occupational Therapy service Over the years, Fran and her colleagues incorporated a series of knowledge building exercises (through large professional group workshops and retreats), as well as one-on-one individual reflective practice exercises—all related to occupation-based practice . And then they studied the effect The meaning GAP When there is incongruence between how therapists believe occupational therapy should be practiced in an ideal world and how they actually do practice in the real world, they experience a “ meaning gap. ”
Helene Therapists who highly value occupation and see the potential for client occupational engagement in their daily roles are enthusiastic therapists, who derive personal meaning and satisfaction within their own occupation, despite other challenges in their work environment. “ it’s your individual sense of occupation that sort of guides you. ”

Liz With occupation being articulated as the domain of concern, Canadian occupational therapists were daring in creating a new model to capture the profession’s implicit, taken-for-granted understanding about HOW occupational therapists actually work. With informal testing to name ‘enablement skills’, we found resonance and support to dare to name 10 enablement skills in an Enablement Continuum in Enabling Occupation II. to name the core competency that distinguishes occupational therapy as ‘enablement’. With this new language, stories have begun to be articulated. For example where occupational therapists have felt restricted by being labelled and locked into a job as the ‘equipment person’, stories are emerging about using enablement skills to educate people about their occupational issues and the potential for them to realize occupational dreams with technical assistance, or to coach them in using particular technologies, and to collaborate with the client – who may be an architect firm to design and actually test the building of inventive technologies that make daily living possible.
Liz International colleagues join us in daring to use the power of ideas, models, and practice process guidelines for enabling occupation. Being able to see what occupational therapy is really about is being examined in different cultures and systems such as Japan
Liz The idea of being daring is catching around the world. An Australian group of occupational therapy researchers and practitioners in various settings has created a Community of Practice to examine what it means for occupational therapists to try enabling occupation in their particular situations. They ‘road tested’ the Enabling Occupation guidelines and dared to raise important critical perspectives about the struggles and the great breakthroughs practitioners reported on their practices, using the latest guidelines for Enabling Occupation II
Liz The Australian project was an important one for daring occupational therapists – some of whom like Lauren felt they were drifting away from the core beliefs and values of occupational therapy – to reassert their interests in enabling occupation

Transition -> topic – Mary continues
Mary Speak briefly about the impact of occupation on person’s lives and our communities; need to create knowledge to carry our discipline forward; stretch our boundaries beyond health services
Mary
Mary Justice with interests in social inclusion Injustice lies in denial or restrictions on the different capabilities that people can actually develop Accommodations need to support the realization of actual potential
Mary Imagine if………………occupational therapists are leaders in the creation of environments that truly support the participation of all persons Imagine if……………..occupational therapists enable occupation at points in transition in person’s lives (e.g. school entry, retirement, first job)
Mary
Helen With a quiet background – e.g. looking off to horizon in future
Liz Imagine if WE pooled our energies as practitioners, students, and faculty as in the photo of such a group at Dalhousie? Imagine if our pooled energies was focused on changing the cities and towns of Canada, like Halifax and a Newfoundland fishing village in the photos, to make them more inclusive for living a meaningful life Imagine if we were enabling change from the use of technology to health practices to homelessness and social inclusion in schools and workplaces around the world
Liz contemplation on developing awareness and the ability to both describe and critique our profession, our work, and our world
Liz
ALL – or Liz briefly as continuity from the last Imagine if? We hope that you’ll be proud, be daring & be the difference in your individual practice, and as a professional community in Canada and the world.
