Canadian Association of Occupational Therapy - Position Statement Universal design and occupational therapy (2009)

Published

Universal design creates environments, materials and tools that provide accessibility, adaptability, ease of use, and safety. Occupational therapists have the knowledge and skills to be experts in universal design. Universal design contributes to health and well-being by enabling engagement in self-care, productivity and leisure. Occupational therapy in Canada is based on a model of practice that recognizes the interaction between occupation and the social, cultural, physical and institutional environment.
