How Occupational Therapy works in SkillScorer
Score
Each clinician in a ward is scored on the Occupational Therapy skills in the Skills Matrix: tap a cell, type a score, and it saves itself.
Compare
Rank clinicians, compare two side by side, or compare your wards against each other to see exactly where the strengths and gaps are.
Track
Scores are kept year after year, so you can see who is improving and which Occupational Therapy skills need attention. Reports also follow each senior clinician's ward.
Occupational Therapy scorecard: common questions
What skills does the Occupational Therapy scorecard include?
SkillScorer's Occupational Therapy scorecard covers 12 skills: Functional Assessment, Goal Setting, Intervention Planning, Equipment Prescription, Communication, Documentation, Home and Environment Assessment, Activity Analysis, Client-Centred Practice, Cognitive and Sensory Assessment, Report Writing and Evidence-Based Practice. Each one comes with a written description of what it measures, and you can edit, rename, remove or add skills to suit your organisation.
How are clinicians scored in Occupational Therapy?
Every clinician is scored from 1 to 10 on each skill (1 = Poor, 5 = Average, 10 = Elite), one ward and year at a time. Scores autosave in the Skills Matrix, and the 18 built-in reports turn them into rankings, radar charts, skill gaps and year-on-year trends.
Which levels come with Occupational Therapy?
Occupational Therapy starts with these levels (called “Band” in the app): Student, Graduate, Occupational Therapist, Senior OT and Principal. They are just a starting point, so you can rename, reorder or replace them.
Can I change the Occupational Therapy skills and wording?
Yes. The skills, levels and labels are all editable per organisation. In healthcare the app talks about clinicians, wards and senior clinicians, and you can change any of those words too.
