Study Notes
Types of Supervision
- Direct Supervision: Involves face-to-face interaction, allowing for co-treatment, observation, instruction, modeling, and discussions between supervisor and supervisee.
- Indirect Supervision: Non-physical contact that utilizes electronic, written, and telephone communication methods for supervision.
- Close Supervision: Requires daily, direct contact at the worksite, ensuring intensive oversight.
- Routine Supervision: Involves direct contact at least every two weeks, with interim supervision provided as necessary.
- General Supervision: Mandates at least monthly direct contact, with additional supervision available through various means as needed.
- Minimal Supervision: Provided only on an as-needed basis, potentially less than monthly.
- Intermittent Supervision: Adequate for non-client tasks and involves periodic discussions or demonstrations, occurring at least monthly.
- Continuous Supervision: Necessary for client-related tasks, requiring a supervisory OTA/COTA or OT to be within auditory and/or visual reach during the aide’s task performance.
Types of Teams
- Intradisciplinary Team: Consists of members from one discipline who independently evaluate, plan, and implement treatment, with no involvement from other disciplines.
- Multidisciplinary Team: Composed of professionals from various disciplines who conduct assessments and interventions independently, with formal communication but limited understanding of differing perspectives; competition over resources may emerge.
- Interprofessional Team: Includes diverse health professionals (e.g., nurses, dietitians, physical therapists) who collaborate effectively to provide integrated, continuous care.
- Transdisciplinary Team: Features practitioners from different disciplines sharing roles and responsibilities, crossing traditional professional boundaries.
Supervision Requirements by OT Level
- Entry-Level OT: Requires close supervision to ensure competence in practice settings.
- Intermediate-Level OT: Needs routine supervision every two weeks or general supervision at least once a month.
- Advanced OT: Operates with minimal supervision, on an as-needed basis.
