Chair’s Message Our Vision: The Department of Occupational Therapy promotes health and well-being through occupation with excellence in learning, discovery and citizenship The Department of Occupational Therapy is pleased to share our 2013-2014 Annual Report. This report highlights the Department’s accomplishments in the 2013-14 academic year. A lot has changed over the course of this year during which I took a part-time administrative leave. I had the opportunity to serve on the Renaissance Committee which was a joint committee of the Association of Academic Staff University of Alberta (AASUA) and the Administration (on behalf of the Board of Governors). This committee spent a year interviewing constituent representatives of the AASUA, administration, students, and collecting data to prepare an arms length review of the University of Alberta. It is my hope that the Renaissance Committee’s insights presented in its final report will inform the university community in times of decision making for many years to come. Einstein once said, “In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity”. The 2013-2014 academic year was certainly a year of difficulty with the continuing budget cut to operational funds at the University of Alberta. Despite the reduced size of the academy across campus, the Department of Occupational Therapy pressed on with its resolve to serve the entire province by establishing a satellite program in Calgary. Our proposal to the Government of Alberta was received positively, and in April 2014, we received news that our program, along with Physical Therapy were two of only three programs on at the University to receive new funds from the Government. I know that this funding commitment was based on early evidence of our Department’s success in the pilot year. The faculty and support staff of the Department of Occupational Therapy are to be commended for their exceptional teaching, research and service. Every instructor taught two cohorts, a large one in Edmonton and a smaller one in Calgary, in each of their courses. They adjusted their teaching and course administration to accommodate students at both sites, they supported each other and sought constructive feedback to continually make their teaching relevant and engaging. Our staff in Calgary and Edmonton communicated effectively with each other. Our Faculty IT team gave us generous and timely support to help us make course delivery and student learning seamless across the province. The instructor and course ratings in our curriculum were stronger than ever, student comments were enthusiastically positive. Although the faculty were challenged with larger classes, a new satellite site, and incorporating technologies in their teaching, they generated more research funding and publications than before. They actively engaged with the community through public media, continuing professional development activities and speaking engagements. Our faculty continue to be leaders on the provincial, national and international stages. Through role modeling they prepare tomorrow’s health service leaders. Our clinical educators are committed professionals who care about the future of our profession. They are our partners in training students to become competent occupational therapists who have the capacity to practice in an evolving practice environment. We are grateful for their partnership. During this year, one of our community partners, a leader in health care, approached me to tell me that she was impressed with one of our graduates who she hired and mentored. Her mentorship experience with our alumnus inspired her to personally fund an award for Leadership and Innovation in Geriatric Care. Laura LaBerge is the first recipient of this award. I am humbled to witness how a former student’s relationship with an employer can inspire the creation of an award that recognizes and encourages future leaders in our profession. I tell this story to remind our staff that they make a difference to our students’ professional identify and growth, and that employers of our graduates recognize graduates from our program. The demand for our program continued to increase. The number of applicants in 2013 increased to 575 from 449 in the previous year. In September 2013, the Department of Occupational Therapy admitted 105 applicants, of which 15 were in the Calgary satellite program. In the second year cohort, we had 102 students, of which 11 were in the Calgary site. A difficulty we faced was the departure of four long-standing department members due to the retirement incentive plan: three faculty and one administrative professional officer. However, funding opportunities allowed us to recruit and welcome four new tenure-track assistant professors and a new administrative professional officer. We offer a heartfelt thank-you to Dr. Joyce Magill Evans who served as Acting Chair during this year of transitions. On behalf of the Department, I would like to congratulate our newest alumni, the class members who convocated in November 2013 and June 2014, and we look forward to hearing about their contributions to the profession. Lili Liu, Chair Department of Occupational Therapy, Faculty of Rehabilitation Medicine

Farewells and Retirements In June 2014, the department bid farewell to three long-standing tenured faculty members and our administrative professional officer. Congratulations to Drs. Yagesh Bhambhani, Masako Miyazaki, Joyce Magill-Evans and Ms. Katherine Shuttle on their retirement and thank you for many years of valuable contribution to the Department, Faculty, and University of Alberta. In addition, our long-term volunteer support staff, Rudy Cornet, decided to take some time off from his volunteering. Rudy Cornet had been serving the Department of Occupational Therapy since 1991. The staff and students will miss his kind and helpful demeanour. Rudy played an integral support role in our department, initially as a guest speaker and client educator and then in our day-to-day operations, taking care of our library and resource room and organizing classroom and lab spaces.

Clinical Education During 2013-2014, the clinical education team consisted of the Academic Coordinator of Clinical Education (ACCE), a Calgary (& Southern Alberta) Clinical Education Coordinator, a Saskatchewan Clinical Education Coordinator, a Fieldwork Educator for Independent Community Placements, and a Clinical Education Assistant. 1

This clinical education team organized and supported 560 fieldwork placements at 168 placement sites during 2013-2014 , including 521 placements in Alberta, Saskatchewan, and the North West Territories as well as 39 placements in other provinces (31 in BC, 5 in ON, 2 MB, 1 in NS), using the National Fieldwork Placement Service (BC, ON, NL, NS, YT). Thirty-two students completed Independent Community Placements (ICPs) at community sites in Edmonton and Calgary; 11 students completed international Level-3 fieldwork placements in Indonesia; 8 students also completed Level 3 fieldwork placements in Colombia, Kuwait, Hong Kong, Scotland, and the United States; 3 students completed Level-3 fieldwork requirements by participating in the Play Around the World project with the Faculty of Physical Education & Recreation in Cambodia and Thailand. The ACCE and clinical education team maintained and established supportive partnerships with the occupational therapists and practice communities within our catchment areas. Many site visits and information sessions occurred, including an MScOT Open House, appreciation events and advisory meetings, to ensure a forum for input and feedback from clinical educators. During 2013-14, the ACCE was asked to return as the Acting Co-Chair of the national Committee on University Fieldwork Education (CUFE), a sub-committee of the Association of Canadian Occupational Therapy University Programs (ACOTUP). The ACCE also became a designated CUFE representative on the ACOTUP National Fieldwork Placement Service (NFPS) Joint Committee. In October 2013, as part of the Centre for Clinical Education Studies (CSCE), the ACCEs from the departments of Physical Therapy, Speech and Language Pathology, and Occupational Therapy hosted a full day clinical education supervision workshop in Edmonton which was also broadcast live to participants at our Calgary satellite. The workshop included half-day sessions focused on introductory training for potential supervisors and strategies for effectively supervising challenging students. The Department of Occupational Therapy would like to express our immense gratitude to the numerous sites that provided clinical education opportunities for our MScOT students during 2013-2014.

Calgary Satellite In the 2013 - 2014 reporting year the Government of Alberta confirmed permanent funding for the Calgary satellite program. We commend the excellent work of all instructors based in Calgary and in Edmonton and, in particular, the following staff members: Dr. Shaniff Esmail (Associate Chair and Coordinator of the Calgary satellite program), Susan Mulholland (Calgary Liaison), Jutta Hinrichs (Clinical Education Coordinator - Calgary & Southern AB) and three part-time Clinical Instructors: Deb Froese, Safieh Rajan, and Trish Williams. The program was delivered in one downtown location leased from TRTech. Renovation is underway with plans to relocate the occupational therapy program with the physical therapy program in the same building in Calgary. All students were in Edmonton for orientation week in September 2013. The student-led Professional Development Committee (PDC) Conference was videoconferenced to allow Calgary students to attend. Whenever possible, lectures and labs were delivered face-to-face, predominantly by the three Calgary-based clinical instructors. As well, this year there was an increase in number of guest speakers and lectures videoconferenced from Calgary to Edmonton thus capitalizing on expertise available in Southern Alberta. An increased number of student selected modules (1 credit, 13 hours) was offered live in Calgary as well as through videoconferencing. We continued to build on our partnerships in Calgary. Occupational therapy students participated in Its Your Move (IYM) with Department of Occupational Therapy, Faculty of Rehabilitation Medicine

the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology (SAIT) rehabilitation assistant (RA) students; as well, Interprofessional Launch included occupational therapy, physical therapy and rehabilitation assistant students. Three Calgary students worked as research assistants with a Edmonton based investigator on a research project funded by AHS and AET to examine the use of GPS-enabled technologies for monitoring older adults who have cognitive impairment and are at risk for wandering. Ongoing informal feedback as well as formal focus groups continue to indicate that Calgary students view the program positively. The smaller class size enhances engagement and cohesiveness and students report a balanced lifestyle given that they have been able to remain closer to their home town or preferred location. Academic performance continues to be comparable than the Edmonton cohort.
