OT intervention can promote dignity during a very challenging time. This printable handout is for occupational therapists working with adult patients, covering ADLs/IADLs and Cancer. Print Resource, US Letter, 2 pages. Members can view and print it.

  • What strategies help patients manage fatigue and daily routines in oncology settings?
  • How can I support participation and engagement for patients during extended hospital stays?
